You'll need to look in Tools | Email Accounts and see what is there.
Do you have a mobile device connected?

hi Bill,
It is not clear what it is synchronizing with. There is an icon in the
botttom right system tray for outlook that indicates it is synching but
not
what with. I wondered if it could be the webmail program that is provided
by
my ISP (???)
I'm not sure how to answer re types of accounts - I have one - a pop3
account. But as I said, my ISP provides a web mail account that I
primarily
use to review and manage spam files.
Thanks ~ Robin

My Outlook 2003 has suddenly started to begun synchronizing files
frequently
and when it does it frequently freezes my desktop preventing me from
working
on other things. I can't figure out why...I tried a system restore to
an
earlier point when I knew it wasn't occurring - but that hasn't helped.
Is
there some kind of setting I should be aware of?
