And disk(s)? Getting full? Run CHKDSK \F and reboot? Defrag fully. Anything besides IMail doing a lot of disk writing/reading? I've seen Windows Auditing (and any other 'logging' service, including IMail's) enabled and that use huge disk space, without showing CPU/Memory demands, but very slow system responses.
Check Disk Queue Length with PerfMon, should be 2 or less except for transient events. If sustained operation shows much more than 2, something is making disk demands or the demands are not being serviced fast enough.
