Hi,

My outlook hangs very often. Sometimes at the time of sending a message and sometime after 10-15 minutes of inactivity.
OWA works fine. Please suggest.
 
If you provide more info someone may be able to help...

- What version of Outlook?
- Service pack version?
- What OS?
- What email are you accessing, Pop? Exchange?
- We/I assume Exchange is the answer to the above question
because you mention OWA.
- So when you use Outlook are you in an office with a
local Exchange Server? Or are you connecting with Outlook
through an Internet connection to a remote Exchange Server?

If the later is the the case of this last question, then
the problems you report are to be expected under the
following conditions...there is only a very limited
bandwidth web connection available, and/or alot of users
are sharing the same web connection and accesing the same
mail server from the same location. The only solution is
probably to get more bandwidth in this case.

The crashing would potentially be an indication of timing
out...and then the software falls over. MS have gone
someway to cure this problem with Outlook XP to be fare
and it is better and more reliable than OL98/2000
connecting to a remote email server.
