Problem with SLOW email send and recieve.

[Neil]

For the past couple of days, my email has been
exceedingly slow.

It the bottom of the outlook screen you can see the speek
the messages are coming in at. it shows 60B of 3.67KB. It
takes 12 minutes to bring in a 3.6 KB text only email. I
have just had a 1.6MB file sent to me and it too is
counting it up in Bytes, it did not even calculate a time
to take to upload this file. Anyway I had to use mail2web
to download the attachement.

I am running a current version of McAfee Internet
Security Suite (Version 8)

Has anyone else had this problem and if so, can you let
me know why this is happening.

Many thanks,

Neil Fox

Hi Neil,
what kind of Internet connection do you use?
