Outlook not performing very well

I have posted several times with regard to the problem that I am having with
Outlook not completing send and receive.

I have three accounts, one personal, one business and one hotmail. If I
click on send and receive all, the send and receive gets to about 80% and
then just hangs there indefinately. When I click on details it tells me that
it is trying to download/processing from my business account. I have been to
my web based mail server and there is no problem there. If i try to download
mail to each account's respective inbox there is no problem either so I just
cannot understand why when I try send and receive all I get the problem.

I had this with O2003P. I just gave up and went back to OXP. O2003 is not
worth all the bugs in it.

Headtheball,
This may be related to a time out error when retrieving mails from anyone of
the 3 servers Outlook is accessing to download mail. Since you mentioned your
business server, most likely the time-out error is related to this account
even with a broadband connection. Your business server account goes thru more
security scrutinty than the other two accounts.
Just an assumption...
