IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs. For information about how to do this, view the "Restoring the Registry" Help topic in Regedit.exe or the "Restoring a Registry Key" Help topic in Regedt32.exe.



SYMPTOMS
After you log on to an Exchange Server mailbox and access your mail messages, the client may appear to stop responding (hang) for several minutes before the user is able to continue working.



CAUSE
The profile contains incorrect information for a server that the client previously had need to connect to, and the server is no longer online or has been removed.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, create a new profile.



MORE INFORMATION
This problem may occur because the server(s) that contained Site Folders was improperly removed. Site Folders consist of the Off-line Address Book folder (OAB), the Schedule+ Free Busy Information folder, and the Organizational Forms folder.
