Windows Mail is too slow

Are you using SpywareBlaster? Or installed any other software or REG file that adds rogue sites to the "Restricted Sites" list in IE, as a security measure? If so, see this page for a solution:

Why is Windows Mail so slow comparing to OE when it is opening a message in
the preview box?

It takes about 10 sec to display the message, it's really time consuming!!

Try the fix for Windows Mail slowness:

I Just posted a solution in detail at NetOrator.com

NetOrator dot com

The problem is the contact files in the contact folder.

*In the 10 seconds it takes to wait on one Vista Email, you could have

Can you NOT Click on *NetOrator.com* ????

I Posted the Solution Here an hour ago and it is being Reviewed by the
Forum Admin. Which means it won't be posted because I included a few
choice observations about the deplorable state of the Windows O/S
Franchise !!!

If you can Click then you can find the answer.

I saw the solution you posted almost three hours ago under the
name "Eddie Miller".
I was wondering how that solution compares to the one we've
been using here with great success:
http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/72674-windows-mail-slow.html?ltr=W

Incidentally, I've never noticed any posting delays in this newsgroup,
and (AFAIK) there is no Forum Admin.

There may be an issue with the Egghead Café posting method you used.

Hi Eddie (Lanscomm),

First, welcome to the Vistax64.com forum.

I find your work around interesting and I was wondering if the fix I
have above will work for you as well or not. It would be great if we
could narrow this down more. Thank you for any feedback you can give on
this.

Shawn

Congratulations.
That is the longest,
most moronic version
of "no" I've ever read.

I've noticed that I get the occasional post pulled
if I lapse into my native Anglo-saxon.
There's a definite pro Roman prejudice
towards the languages used here.

Hi Eddie,

Thank you for finding a solution to another cause of a slow Windows
Mail. If you do not mind, I included your findings at my site as well.
Please take a look and see if you approve of it or not. Let me know
what you think.

Hi Shawn,

No Problem at all. But it should be TOO, and not TO in your web
posting...

I also just included an update on my site which lists delay metrics for
Contacts Folder Files.


IMPORTANT METRIC:[/B]
-FOR EACH 100 SIMPLE CONTACT FILES IN YOUR VISTA SYSTEM
CONTACT FOLDER (NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS TOTALING 2KB) THERE IS A 0.25
SECOND DELAY IMPOSED BY VISTA WINDOWS BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE
ISSUES.-

[B]THEREFORE, YOU CAN EXPECT A 2 TO 3 SECOND DELAY IF
YOUR CONTACT FOLDER HAS 1,000 CONTACTS.
-Please note that this metric was timed using and extremely fast
duo-core processor and your results may be MUCH SLOWER !!!! Also, if you
have added EXTRA info to the contacts, such as pictures, home addresses,
phone numbers, etc., then expect longer delays for each email.-

Eddie,

Too vs To = Picky picky (haha)

I like the metric description of the contact problem better. It makes
it easier to gauge the delay time that you get. Thanks for the update.

Can someone breakdown the contents of this thread so that a non-techy like me
can understand it? lol

I switched over to Firefox Thunderbird because Windows Mail was incredibly,
painfully slow, but from what I gather in this thread there are work arounds
for the slowness. Is Microsoft working on a permanent fix?

TIA...MJ
