SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to synchronize all folders from a Microsoft Exchange or Outlook Client with an OST file, you may encounter the following error message:
Synchronization with the offline folder file could not be
completed. Consult the synchronization log in the deleted
items folder for details.

CAUSE
