Outlook constantly creating Send/Receive Tasks

[abn]

On both my laptop and desktop yesterday Outlook has gone into some
kind of loop that it constantly adds duplicate tasks to the Send/
Receive box... rendering the program unusable. I've tried everything I
can think of but no solutions... anyone ever seen this before? At the
moment there are 7000+ tasks and they just keep getting added!

Thanks

Have you restarted outlook or the computer? Did you look for error messages?
How often are you checking for now mail? How many accounts?

If a previous Send and receive hangs future ones will add to the list.

My desktop computer has 3 Pop3 accounts that are set to check every 5
minutes. I also have a second profile that has my work Exchange
account only.

My laptop has one exchange account running in Cache mode.

I have tried rebooting both computers several times. I've tried virus
scans. I even removed the exchange account and set it up again but
same problem

I sent a screen shot to by IT guy, but he is as lost as I am. He tried
unchecking "synchronize forms" but that didn't change anything.

Thanks

HAHAHAHAHA!

After 2 days, I figured out the problem. The "F9" key on my keyboard
was stuck down. Since I use VNC to access my laptop while in the home
office, it was sending the S/R command to that system also.

Bye Bye Logitech low profile keyboard!

Thanks for the help
