takes forever to do anything in windows live mail!
Every folder I click on, it's like at least 1-2 minutes before I see a message on the screen. I imagine maybe it's because I have a lot of messages? I have about 20 e-mail accounts, and probably get about 50-60 messages an hour. (most are business accounts, and I get about 75% spam, which does get filtered & deleted, but still is there) So is that why it's just snail slow? Because I have so many messages? I try & move most of them ot the storage folders, but still, if I go to a folder that has more than like 50 messages in it, it takes minutes to load & show the first message... I just switched from outlook express to live mail, hoping it would be better & faster (outlook express just took forever to find messages, and even then would give false results - lots omitted) So even though live seems much more accurate, it is even SLOWER! I am running XP Pro, SP3. So is there anything I can do to speed this puppy up? Or is there a better mail program to use (other than regular outlook - can't stand that one!) HELP Pretty pretty please with cherries on top! Still waiting for a message to load..... Sanctuarie
