All of a sudden, my MS Outlook 6 (not Outlook Express) is
running very slow. The slowing down is within the
program, not the connection. I have high speed cable
program which is working fine. Scrolling through the
messages, and deleting, etc is taking a long time. Any
ideas what might be causing this and how to fix it? It
just started recently, and I have tried rebooting several
times without success.
 
See http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/problems/performance.htm.

Most likely candidate is
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/problems/performance.htm#slow (compact all
folders).

Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose. Disable Background Compacting and
frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working
offline". More at http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/files/maintain.htm.

There was no version of Outlook bearing the name "Outlook 6."

Regardless, this problem should be asked in an appropriate newsgroup.
This one is for the XP OS. Bye bye now!

Although there is an Outlook Express 6, there is no product
called Microsoft Outlook 6. If you are actually running Outlook
and not Outlook Express, please clarify what version it is.
