Error message when I send/receive: Task 'pop3.bluyonder.co.uk reported error (0 x 80040600) : 'Unknown error 0 x 80040600'
When I try to delete an existing mail from my mailbox, I get the following Outlook error box: 'Errors have been detected in the file C:\Documnets and settings..........Outlook.pst Quit all mail-enabled applications and then use the Inbox Repair Tool.' Would do this but I don't know where to find it/if I have it. Can anybody shed some light on this please?

What the Inbox Repair Tool Does
When you run the Inbox Repair Tool on a Personal Folders (.pst) file, it does the following:
? The Inbox Repair Tool analyses the Personal Folders (.pst) file directory structure and item headers to try and recover all folders and items.
? If the Inbox Repair Tool recovers the Personal Folders (.pst) file, it means that the repair tool found problems, and repaired what it could.
? The Inbox Repair Tool tries to turn any file into a Personal Folders (.pst) file. (For example, if you rename an executable file to "Something.pst," (without quotation marks) the tool changes the file to a mountable .pst file).
Recovered Personal Folders File
After you run the Inbox Repair Tool, start Outlook by using the profile that contains the Personal Folders (.pst) file that you tried to repair. On the View menu, click Folder List to turn on the Folder List view. In your Folder List, you should see the following recovered folders:
