Hello,

I am in a bit of a quandary. Lately, my pop3 client, Outlook 2002, is
acting funky. I have two accounts on the pc, the 1st account is MS
Exchange, the 2nd, a pop3 account where the incoming server is the
ISP's pop server, and the outgoing server is the exchange server.

A user will request email and "exchange" task will complete but pop3
mail won't come in. The task won't complete. If you look at the
details, Outlook shows 70 Microsoft Exchange tasks but the sending and
receiving of pop mail hangs, eventually I'll have to cancel it out or
I'll get a timeout message that the ISPs' pop mail did not respond.

But it works fine with Outlook Express.

It seems to be related that it is very slow copying files from the
domain server to the XP PC. Slower than usual.

Don't know if upgrading to gigabit Ethernet will help.

For example, today, Outlook said the task was 80% complete, and then
it dropped to 50%. I looked at the webmail provided by the ISP and
noticed that there was no pop mail go get.

Any tips would be appreciated. This started to happen. The only
solution so far is to reboot the pc.


Thanks in advance,

Edgar

On your pop3 account, try uping the time out on Server connects.
