You won't get it, sorry. TheOutlookteam at Microsoft does not
participate in these newsgroups.
If they'll fix it, you'll know after you installed the fix.

Sorry,

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone has managed to come up with a solution toOutlook
2007'sbehaviour withIMAP. I am running it on a laptop, which I put to
sleep a few times a day.

It seems that when you either start the application or just awake your
laptop after a longer time whenOutlookhas not been checking anIMAP
account, it takes it anywhere from 2 to 10 minutes to actually download
the
IMAPemail. This is usually much worse when there are a lot of spam
messages (by a lot I mean ~10, not really *that* much) to filter out into
the Junk folder.

You can either wait for the above period of time, during which the
application is basically hung up, or you can kill it and restart (although
you need to do this manually, not through the "restartoutlook" requester)
at which point it will load up, have theIMAPemail available, but not
filtered with the rules.

Any ideas?

In other words, dear Outlook users (legit and non-legit), stop using
outlook and switch to some other client that does just about
everything Outlook does. By the time you have done that, Microsoft
will notice that their Outlook is no longer used and they will get to
fixing the damn issue. Outlook has been freezing with IMAP since the
2002 release. I'd say it's a pretty fair chance that ONE Microsoft
representative read this complaint at least 100 times.

So, mr. Patrick Schmid, go suck up some fairytale juice, 'cuz your bs
is too old.
