Slowdown problem

Anybody else experience this problem?

I guess I'd be a "heavy user" of the program... 10,000+ emails sent in the
last 6 months, at least that many rec'd... I'm noticing lately that when I
go to send an email - esp a long one, with mulitiple recipients - upon
clicking the send button, WM takes an awfully long time to "think" as it
processes the command and then is free again to do another task. A long
email will take 7 seconds of thinking... long email with mult recipients
will be more than 10 seconds of thinking.

Any solutions? I've compacted my folders... many times...

btw - I do not use any incompatible AV programs and certainly don't have AV
processing my mail...

Re: Slowdown problem

You've probably answered your own question.
Windows Mail was not designed for such heavy duty use.
You'd be better off with Outlook.
