Unable to delete folder...

Question

Hi,

I've a little problem with outlook 2007.

I've made an add-in that collect the list in my sharepoint server.

But i've made a mistake in my code and a folder larger thant 255 character has been created.

I cannot delete the folder from the "deleted item" folder.

I've this error:

"Unable to delete this folder. Right-click the folder, and then click Properties to check your permissions for the folder. See the folder owner or your administrator to change your permissions."

The problem is that when I want to delete all item permantly from the "deleted item" folder I'll receive the following error "Out of memory or system resources. Close some windows or programs and try again".

What can I do to delete the bad folder? Rename doesn't work.

Thanks,

Manu

Answer 1

Have you got Outlook Web Access as this may circumvent this problem for you, but this is not really a VSTO Solution issue.

The Outlook Spy or MFCMAPI.exe tool might also be helpful.
