You said 11 accounts? Are they all pop3? How often are you checking for new
mail? With that many, I would try 10 min. minimum, more if they are all on
one server. Outlook is limited in how many accounts it can check at once and
if the time is too low, it's still checking when the time for the next pass
occurs and to can cause outlook to hang.
if it works correctly for a higher time, slowly lower it until it starts
hanging again - and move it a min or two higher.
