All of our workstations are W95 using exchange with internet mail. Sometimes when the workstation logs on to collect mail the logging on takes up to 5 minutes and other times just seconds. The server is not under any heavy load. The delays are completely at random and not restricted to any particular workstation. I don't know whether it co-incides with sendmail receiving mail from outside, although i don't think so. The server spec is P100 32MB. Any ideas please ? Regards, Craig.
