Re: [IMail Forum] 3Com NICs Not Created Equal on Thursday 11:15:40 AM
We are on Win2000Server. We have all real time virus scanners off.
I just logged into my brother's account and this took 2 minutes...
I viewed the InBox(Main) with about 120 messages and this took about
two minutes to load up...
Thanks. I do not know what is happening here...
