If I have Powermail open when my backup is run, Powermail address lookup becomes VERY VERY slow. I quit Powermail and it's OK again.
If you run Powermail all the time, and peform backups, that could be the problem. Otherwise, it's possible some other program, like virus protection is causing the same side effect I've seen with backup. I do regular, about once a month, full low level rebuilds, compact etc. of my mail database -- it's a database and if you value your data, maintenance is as important as backup.... +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Bill Schjelderup, President [EMAIL PROTECTED] COMPanion Corporation 801-365-0555 voice 1831 Fort Union Blvd. 801-943-7752 fax Salt Lake City, Utah 84121-3041 www.companioncorp.com +-----------------------------------------------------------+ Nusquam est qui ubique est. - He who is everywhere is nowhere.
