Infanent loop trying to send email

[Carlo Razzeto]

Hey there,

I'm having a strange issue with my outlook installation I was curious
about... Here's what I"m running:

Vista Ultimate x64 edition
Office 2007 Ultimate
AVG Antivirus
Various development tools and misc apps

On occation, outlook will get stuck in an infanent look while trying to send
an email. What I mean by this is CPU utilization will spike, the
send/receive dialog will flicker really fast and start counting up to an
obsene number of operations to be completed... If I click cancel it will
only stop for about a second, then it will start up again... When this
happens I have to very quickly delete the message from my out box.

Secondly, I have no idea why but specifically my plain text nightly slashdot
update emails will almost always be truncated. I know AVG + Outlook '07 used
to cause this issue. But with the release versions (and subsequent AVG
updates) this problem seems to be solved for all email messages except
specifically the slashdot ones.

At anyrate, is the loop issue something that has been reported before? Seems
very odd to me. Thanks for any thoughts,

Carlo

I would still start with disabling AVG's integration with Outlook.

I'll try, see if that works. If it helps I'll email AVG... would still be
nice to have working email AV going.

There's absolutely no reason to scan incoming or outgoing mail with an AV
scanner, provided you have the on-access feature of that AV program
opertional.
