Unchecking Transparency
It's an odd thing, Chad. I have no clue as to what one has to
do with the other. Like I said- I know what I see, and since I turned off transparency, WinMail has behaved a bit better. I don't want to sound bitter, but I hope this gets looked into and not brushed aside like my discovery of BitLocker protecting restore points did when I first posted about it. -Michael "Chad Harris" getsomevistainfoout.net wrote in message ... I am more convinced now after this thread, and using OE on XP for a considerable amount of time that this relationship between "enable transparency" and Win Mail exists. Granted the amount of messages that you have configured either to download probably has some part in this equation, but nothing like this happens on XP with OE and I have the same amount of downloads (all of them) on both XP with OE and Vista with Win Mail. I think you're definitely onto something. CH "MICHAEL" wrote in message ... I've had a slightly aggravating problem with WinMail, lately. When I went to reply to a post, there was a delay/hesitation of a few seconds and the composition window would be all white for a bit. This also happened when composing a new mail message. Also, if I left-clicked-hold to select a portion of text to cut out of the reply, the window froze a few seconds. This only happened in Windows Mail, not in Outlook or any other program. It just started doing it one day. I haven't installed any new apps or changed any settings. I did all the maintenance tasks on WinMail, nothing worked. Then, I was messing around with the personalization settings, I unchecked "Enable Transparency". Mysteriously, the WinMail problem stopped. I turned it back on, and the problem reappeared. I had not experienced this all through beta testing. Also, with transparency off, I swear things seem a bit more zippy. Very odd. I don't know, just thought it interesting to pass along. I have an ATI 9700 card. 2GB RAM P4(HT) 3.4 GHz -Michael

Unchecking Transparency
You need to put it on the message store.
The location can be found under Tools | Advanced | Maintenance | Store Folder G steve "I.P. Nichols" wrote in message ...

Metamucil does wonders for constipation so on your tip I poured a couple of spoon full thru the floppy drive slot and so far it hasn't helped WinMail speed but the splash screen looks much better...
