Default Outlook 2007 IMAP just hangs on slow internet connection

Set to download entire messages.

Regardless of whether I just do a small amount of messages in the inbox, or
set It to download 20 folders worth of stuff, Outlook slows to a crawl if
there is a momentary loss in available bandwidth - which happens all the
time in Asia.

Outlook, some days, is completely unusable.

I have one IMAP account.

When I am in Asia accessing my account in the states, Outlook just
hangs all the time.

I wish that Outlook could cache changes and just show what is in the
local mail store while it is waiting to update the information.


Do you have the send/receive group configured to download only headers or
the entire message? Is your subscription list large or restricted only to
your Inbox?
