Wow, OK, I -also- have Yahoo POP mail accounts, and that's where mine is
hanging. I'll bet you a dime to a dollar that's where our issue is.

I was hopeful the firewall settings would resolve this, but no, it failed me
again this morning. I have to turn off the first e-mail check when I open
Outlook, then just let it do it's automatic check ten minutes later. Outlook
from then on handles e-mail polls just fine.

It's almost like that initial handshake with the servers fails or bombs out.
 I say that because sometimes it will actually grab 1 or 2 then stop. The
other day it got stuck and repeatedly downloaded all messages; I ended up
with hundreds.

Well, I'm gonna contact Yahoo and Trend Micro to see if they have any
insight. I'll give them the link to this thread, and report here if I get
any information.
