Run the Task Manager on your Exchange Server and see what's eating up all the CPU Pocesses.
We have this problem occasionally with mssdmn.exe running 100% utilization. We just kill this process and things go back to normal. As of yet, no one at MS has been able to explain why this occurs.

Until recently, our Exchange 5.5 Server has been running smoothly. Lately however, it has been running S..L..O..W on occasions. Our server is older (Dell 6300 with Dual 400 MHZ processors and 1.5 GB of memory..... 700 users). The only thing that's changed is we have recently started upgrading some of our NT 4.0 workstations to Windows XP workstations. Almost all those users receive the following message the first time they logon.... Outlook is retrieving data from the Microsoft Exchange Server "Exchange". You can cancel the request or minimize this message to the Windows taskbar until Outlook closes the message automatically. Some of them receive the message more frequently. Maybe the two issues aren't related, but I thought I'd start here, since it's the only thing that's changed recently. Is anybody else having issues using XP Professional with Exchange 5.5? Thanks.
