When my company upgraded to OL2003, I saw how horribly slow it was.
Mailboxes are the same size.
It takes a great deal of time to refresh the Inbox.
When I try it on my own laptop, incredibly slow, same problem.
Strange. In 2000, I send/receive and it's done in a couple of seconds. In
2003, even if I have no email, it takes about 30 to 60 seconds to finish..
This must be a complained about problem...isn't it?

Wouldn't know without any details.
Are both computer configurations the same? (both software and hardware)
What mail account type are you using?
Are mailbox sizes the same?
Is it only slower for receiving?

why is this? I have both 2000 and 2003. I won't use 2003 because it is so
incredibly slow.
2000 fetches emails quickly.
Why does 2003 take 10 times longer to retrieve emails?
Is there some setting I need to fix?
