My problem is that Outlook 2003 on VISTA Business hangs when checking for
incoming mail. It also somestimes takes a very long time (several minutes) to
send an email - the email window remains open with the hourglass running, and
while
waiting to send or while receiving Outlook is completely hung, so you cannot
use it - you cannot even minimize or get any response from any of the
Outlook windows. The windows do not redraw.
If I cancel the application using Task Manager, it initially says "Outlook
is not responding" and also "Checking for a solution to this problem" but
then both Outlook and the "Checking for a solution" windows vanish without
trace. On restart Outlook will sometimes work OK when pressing send/receive,
other times it will hang as before. It does not come up with the message
that Outlook was not closed properly and does not go through the file
checking process.
