SYMPTOMS
Because the .OST file is linked to a mailbox, and if the mailbox is deleted and a new mailbox is created with the exact same properties, the .OST file will not be available, and you will receive the following error message:

The file c:\win95\user.ost can not be accessed because it has been configured for use with a different mailbox.



CAUSE
This is by design.

Additional query words: offline storage local replication rep synch sync
