Re[2]: POP - "Getting number of messages"

[bunker]

Hi Thomas,

>>How many messages is it trying to get? As I mentioned earlier, have
you kept messages on server for the last 10 years, and TB has to
download 1 million headers first to check whether the messages have
already been downloaded?<<<

OK, I understand. Now there are only 1,900 messages in the server and
still the connection centre is stuck getting number of messages.

reason we keep the msgs on server is that in office, we download using
POP and filtered into appropriate folders. then we got the email
running in our mobile phones, then at home we got our laptops running
on IMAP.
   
I could say that this issue propped up only about a month back.

appreciate your advice.

One thing you might want to check is if there's some program that's hogging CPU
time. Move your cursor down into the task bar and right-click. Then click on
TASK MANAGER. When it comes up click on the header POWER USAGE to get the most
hungry app to the top. (My apologies if you're already familiar with this).

Microsoft automatically runs a program called "Anti Malware Service Executable"
(MsMpEng.exe). It's an anti-malware program which has lately (on my computer)
become VERY demanding of CPU time. I have begun to have constant problems with
this program freezing my computer until it releases the CPU. It has high 
priority
and cannot be made lower priority.

Just a thought.

Thank you both for your replies, But nothing is working!
EMails checked every minute for the past 6 years without any issue at
all. I even cleared the INBOX/SENT BOX but the problem still persists.
Even with 25,000 emails in the INBOX, it was working perfectly.
Attached is a screen shot of the CONNECTION CENTRE window. Here you
will see that the connection is stuck at GETTING NUMBER OF MESSAGES.
