There is a pronounced delay when I open up an email with an attachment.

We are using Outlook 2002 on an Exchange Server

Any Ideas???
Thanks

This is probably normal, how busy is your exchange box? Handling other tasks?
What is your connection to the server? 10 or 100mbps?
How large is the attachment?
Do you have client-based virus software? It's possible this is slowing the email from opening.

It depends on how busy your network, Exchange Server and the bandwidth of you network. Is your Exchange box well resourced? If so what is the speed packet are traveling at on your network 10 or 100mbps. How capable is your network switch? I experience the same situation at work. It depends on the time of the day especially when the network is congested (10am-5pm) intermittently.
