(I think I proved the ticker can be a Not exactly a memory thing, but... TB doesn't store the number of messages in a folder, thus on startup it has to crawl through each folder in order to display the counts of total and read messages. The amount of time this takes depends on how many messages are in each folder and whether the index file is valid. If you have a large number of messages in various folders this can take quite a bit of time, especially if you haven't compressed in a while. When things get slow I try to archive some of my older messages and just get them out of TB to speed things up. -- -Mark Wieder Using The Bat! v1.63 Beta/7 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
