Re: UGA BlackBerry Service Account Activated
Is he running his Outlook in Cached Mode? How big is his mailbox? When
opening Outlook what does is say at the bottom right of his Outlook?
Example, waiting to update folder.

Re: VIP Client Experiencing Long Delay Loading Outlook 2003 connected
to Exchange 2003
Hi,
1. The client is running Outlook 2003 in Exchange Cached Mode.
2. The total Mailbox is approximately 1.7 GB. The total number of
messages in just his Inbox is approximately 25-27 thousand messages.
I'm sorry a colleague and I went to look at it this morning and he has
the exact numbers in his notes.
3. On first start of Outlook 2003 for the day, this morning it took 3-5
minutes to load Outlook 2003. During the time is said either waiting to
update folders, or updating "one of his folders."
4. This instance of starting Outlook 2003, consumes a significant CPU
Utilization.
4. Any other time after Outlook first starts, if we close Outlook and
restart it, or reboot the machine and start Outlook, Outlook's start
time is under a minute
This client finds the 3-5 minute delay unacceptable. Any suggestion for
resolving this issue will be greatly appreciated.
This morning, I have heard from other users on that Exchange Server
reporting a delay of several minutes when starting Outlook for the first
time.
Thank you for your assistance,
Lewis
