I felt that perhaps search was slow so i went to the Modify button in the
Indexing Options control panel applet where to my surprise i see duplicate
Outlook 2007 accounts in the search locations (ie: 2 instances of
and 2 instances of , Personal Folders, etc...)
and all of them are selected by checkboxes. i dont know which one is the
original or the duplicate, so i tried to go to Advanced Options and tried
Rebuild and Restore Defaults thinking that, perhaps doing this would
reinitialize my index settings and would properly see the actual email
accounts that are active in my Outlook, but is is of no avail as the
duplicate items are still there.

Is there a way to fix this? Could this be slowing down my index since it is
possible that it indexed the same outlook file twice? There is no Option in
the Indexing Options applet to see if the duplicates are pointing to a
single PST. To be sure, i checked the Folder List of Outlook and there are
no duplicate open folders there.

For your reference, i took a screenshot which i posted here

i have both Windows Search 4 and SP1 and, as i mentioned in my message, been
trying to Rebuild and Restore Defaults in the Indexing Options Control Panel
applet to no avail.
