Default how do i delete archive folders when the pst file is missing

We recently updated to a mocrosoft exchange server and several of my pst
files were somehow lost. I am resigned to missing the info but now I have all
the archive folders listed on my navigation pane and no way to delete them.
Any suggestions?

If right-clickClose won't work and FileData File ManagementRemove won't
work, then a new mail profile is in order.

If the file is actually gone but the mail profile still references it, then
the only cure is a new profile. See this:
