I used Microsoft's easy migration (?) tool to save the profile before I
upgraded the system, so that's what I was thinking that it might be
something
in the old profile that's causing this.

The Windows Easy Transfer program corrupts the mail profile and shouldn't be
used to try to recreate a mail profile. Create a new profile with the Mail
applet in Control Panel and point that profile to the existing PST(s). Add
the account manually.
