Hi Jon,
While I don't use OE, the problem may be similar to a problem I had using
Outlook a while ago. I had left approximately 400 messages in my inbox and
noticed that downloading email into this folder was very slow. Moving those
emails to another folder solved my problem.
I suspect the problem was caused by Outlook trying to sort the new emails
into the old, checking dates and times on each of the old and the new.

Hello all,
When I click Send and Receive with OE I get a window with
"Checking for new messages on Provider" and "Receiving List of Messages from
Server"
It takes some 25 secs to run from left to right, then any messages are
downloaded reasonably fast. The 25 secs applies even when there are no
messages.
My wife's PC has exactly the same settings but the operation is almost
instantaneous.
I've tried switching off the firewall and AV, to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
John
