Outlook freezes, but only on my IMAP Inbox folder

[Guest]

Outlook 2003 reads and sends (and seems to do everything else) in my main
account (an SMTP email account), but when I select the inbox on another
(IMAP) account, Outlook stops responding at all and must be shut down. As
long as I do not click on the IMAP account, it continues to work. This IMAP
account has been funtional for a year, so I am confident it is set up
properly. Any help?

You cannot have a pop acct and IMAP acct in the same profile. Only one Inbox
is allowed in a profile.

How are your accounts configured? You can have multiple types of accounts (Except Exchnage) in the same profile. Have you tried Detect and Repair on the IMAP account? Do you get any errors?
