Hi all, I'm trying to figure out why sending the first email in a session takes so long to send nowadays. I thought it was because I had nearly 600 emails in my "sent" folder, but even after moving all but 25 into another folder, after I've hit the "Send Now" button, it takes a good 10-12 seconds before anything happens and the email goes. This is a simple text email (no attachments) no more than 4k big. I'm on a 1Mb broadband connection and a 50MHz 060 with 128Mb RAM. After the 1st email is sent, subsequent emails go instantly. Also, when I hit "Hold" from the compose window, it takes around 12 seconds before the email is "held". I have only 2 other items in the "Outgoing" folder. I noticed that SM accesses the Hard disk when I hit the "Hold" button and it still takes a long time even with subsequent "Hold" operations. Incoming mails come down as quick as usual everytime.
