PS, now do you add a new profile in Outlook 2000.
Your advice to another user points at the control panel and the mail icon,
but the option for profile is not visible as the icon selection generates the
add new mail account dialouge box.

Many thanks for your reply... yes I understand now that more detail is
helpful.. sorry.

The Outlook version is Outlook 2000 within Office 2000.
No, no other folder hangs, and all else functions.
No I have not tried a new profile but I will give that a go.

Regards
