To: button very slow

Everything in Windows Mail is working great except the to: button when
creating new email. When pressed the window pops up but remains blank for
approximately 17 seconds before displaying name, showing only the Busy
Hourglass. If I use the Contacts Button the display of names is
instantaneous. I have deleted the cache, but it did not help. I am only using
250+ contacts, so I do not think that the contact size is a problem. I have
also tried it without my anti-virus program, but get the same results.
 
Thank you for the suggestion, but I have tried them. The odd thing is that it
is only the response to the "TO" button that is slow. All other aspects of
Windows Mail are working just fine. I suspect something is amiss in the way
Windows Mail is searching the "Contacts List" but I have no clue as to why
the 'Contacts List" appears instantly when accessed through the "Contcts"
buttton in Windows Mail, but reponds so slowly when using the "To" button
when creating a new mail message. :-(
 
Thanks, I will try it again. I did try it back when it first came out and
felt more comfortable with Windows Mail. I guess I will try Live Mail one
more time.
 
Don't give up right away. It took me several months to get comfortable
with Windows Live Mail. :-)
