Outlook 2003 “the operation failed” error

by ilya . Updated 13 years, 9 months ago

Hello, my boss gets very upset when he is replying to an email and when he clicks on send button, all of the sudden he sees “the operation failed” error . (This was a regular email, with no attachments)
So outlook basically was not functioning. Every email that I was trying to open gave me an error “cant open this item”. Something has to do with Word maybe, since There is “Word” window on “the operation failed”. But I can’t disable Word in the Options because he likes to reply in red font. I reinstalled Outlook, and the problem persists. I recreated his profile and will see today if my boss gonna shoot me. I checked for spyware and fully patched this machine. his mailbox is on exchange and 5gb in size. i dont know what else can i try? bomb microsoft?
