Long shot here, but have you checked the location and accessibility of the address lists that the client uses for 'auto' name resolution?

Outlook 98 on a NT4 Terminal Server (hosting a witches brew of other applications to do with telephone logging). MAPI profile connecting an Exchange 5.5 SP3 + store fix. Console auto logs in to run telephone statistics collection and uses Outlook 98 for the purposes of e-mailing reports. If you manually send mail to GAL entries, no problem. If you manually send mail to an SMTP address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) the Outlook process freezes as you type the '@' (this is not displayed) and task manager shows it burning lots of cpu. It eventually returns control. The automated report mailing process by necessity uses SMTP addresses and times out the application. Bizarrely if you check the properties of any of the standard folders they do not display permissions tabs, synchronisation tab etc as if the folders were based on a PST. BUT if you login to the same user via the TS client service, Outlook 98, using the same mail profile behaves completely normally! As this is a live logging service with bundles of bespoke applications I'm completely stuffed when it comes to experimenting with the service. Any thoughts?
