Compacting folder error "because writing to folder failed"

more options

Keep getting this message when compacting this email folder inbox, but not on other email account inboxes.

The folder 'Inbox on [email protected]' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again.

Any ideas appreciated....
