HELP/ 5450 ActiveSync Error /POP3 database problem

[geekgirl]

I recently configured my inbox with my POP3 service (Yahoo POP 3 account) info. Unhappy with inbox performance on the PPC(waiting for inbox to scan all of my old messages) i decided to delete that service from the PPC. Now, whenever i activesync, i get the following message:

ActiveSync Error message

Backup: File(s) Could Not Be Copied

Backup could not copy the following file(s). To correct this error, please close any programs on your device that might have locked these files, and then click Retry.
You may choose to skip these files; backup will retain any previous backup copies in the storage file.

not sure if this will work, but there is a program called DBview I think (google it), it shows all the databases on your device, and allows you to delete them etc.
It used to be freeware I dont know if it still is. Sorry I cant be more help
