Default Unable to start processing services.Unable to start Outlook.Unable

Hi,
I've a problem with Outlook 2007.
I tried (in vain) to add the mail2web exchange server, not knowing OWA
wasn't included in the free service I subscribed for Windows Mobile's direct
push.
Apparently it wasn't a matter as I simply couldn't add anything because
Outlook couldn't connect/check my user name.
Closing the 'email' window I opened from control panel I opened Outlook
again.
It crashed 4-5 times, much for Windows to send further details about the
crashes to Microsoft. I accepted.
After some tries, it simply opened without crashing but here it is the
surprise:
---------------------------
Microsoft Office Outlook
---------------------------
Unable to start processing services. Unable to start Outlook.
Unable to find a data file to send and receive mail.
To add a data file, for example a file of personal folders, double click on
the 'email' icon into Control Panel of Windows.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
It doesn't crash any more, my old email are there, data files are there too,
so there are all accounts, and no traces of the exchange server I had tried
to add.
Simply, Outlook doesn't receive nor send anything, if I try to send
something I receive a message telling he doesn't find data files and if I try
to send/receive it prints a message for every account:
Unable to complete the activity *email-address* - Sending and receiving
(0x8004010F): "Unable to execute the operation. Unable to find an object."

I found a very old MS KB which says to delete Offitems.log and/or
Outitems.log but if refers to Outlook 2000, and I can't find those files
anywhere.
The KB is @ http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244385/en-us/ .
Hope someone has some sort of idea.
P.S. All messages have been translated from Italian, they could be not
precise!
Thanks.

You can set a default delivery location via File- Data File Management...

From the information provided it is not unlikely that you have damaged your
mail profile by your actions.
In that case you'll need to recreate your mail profiles as per;
