Profiles weren't a good choice for me.  Either didn't work or trashes
lots of stuff in the process.

Microsoft suggested a way to do surgery to OutLook in the Registry by
simply removing the "stuck" PST files from the collection.  That was
quick and clean, but an error might be dangerous.  I found that
SpamBayes is not the only way to corrupt these PST bindings, but it is
an assured and conspicuous way to do so.
