Default Multiple "Personal Folders" - cannot delete

Hi there,

I bought a new PC and installed my Office Pro 2003 on it. When i open
Outlook, "Personal Folders" is listed 3 times under "All Mail Folders" in the
left Mail pane and i cannot seem to delete the 2 unneeded occurences.

Why is this happening and how do i delete them?

I transferred over my PSTs from old PC and it still happens, so i went back
to an "empty" PST. Should i uninstall and reinstall Outlook?

Thanks in advance!

You have corrupted your mail profile. Create a new one, pointing it at the
PST you wish to use. http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/newprofile.htm
