receiving emails interrupting text input
Hello, Outlook interrupts whatever I am working on (tax, browsing, msword,
etc) when receiving emails. Eg - I was typing my question here and outlook interrupted my typing when it check for new emails. This causes whatever I am inputting to be interrupted, seriously screwing up whatever i am inputting, ie partial text etc. I purposely have Outlook set for every 5 mins check for new emails, and I like that, but I want outlook to do it WITHOUT interrupting my text or other input work while it is doing so. Any settings or relief for that? I have a dual core Dell PC. Thanks, Brad |

receiving emails interrupting text input
What is the exact version of Outlook as reported in Help- About...?
Which mail account type are you using? (POP3, IMAP, HTTP, Exchange, Other...) Tried it in Outlook Safe Mode already? Start- Run; outlook.exe /safe (note the space in the command) Do you have a virus scanner installed which integrates itself with Outlook? Uninstall this integration part of your virus scanner and try again; you'd still be sufficiently protected by your on-access scanner part of the virus scanner.
