My company runs a Microsoft Exchange email system, with Outlook 2010 on the computers. On my machine, I have an email with an attached file that is corrupted. However, the file as it exists on the server is not corrupted. So, I'd like to re-download this specific email so that the .ost file on my machine is correct. I'd rather not delete the .ost file on my local machine since I have several GB of emails, which seems to be the sticking point here, as I cannot find an approach that doesn't rely on this. Is there any option to simply re-download an email? If possible, this would solve this sort of problem under any circumstances, which is why I'm after a solution of this type. In my particular case, I can download the file from the server myself, so I'm not actually being prevented from accessing the data.

2Have you asked your IT department to send you the un-corrupted file or asked the sender of the original email to send it again? I would start there because they can probably get this done pretty quickly. – Ray M – 2016-09-09T13:02:38.167
