When I open outlook 2003 and try to download email from ISP, the application hangs and then errors out. The error box says &quot;send error report to microsoft&quot; as an option and there is a box that says &quot;restart outlook&quot;. &nbsp;This box is checked by default, so the app just goes into a vicious circle. &nbsp;I loaded a 2003 client on another machine and it pulled the mail just fine with no errors. &nbsp;Just started happening a couple of days ago out of the blue. &nbsp;I reinstalled office and did a repair but neither of these worked. &nbsp;

When I open outlook 2003 and try to download email from ISP, the application hangs and then errors out. The error box says "send error report to microsoft" as an option and there is a box that says "restart outlook".  This box is checked by default, so the app just goes into a vicious circle.  I loaded a 2003 client on another machine and it pulled the mail just fine with no errors.  Just started happening a couple of days ago out of the blue.  I reinstalled office and did a repair but neither of these worked.  

Outlook 2003 hangs when trying to download email

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program in the category of groupware environments used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions may internally act as an email client; as a whole, it is commonly referred to as webmail. Likewise, email client may be referred to a piece of computer hardware or software whose primary or most visible role is to work as an email client. Email clients can also have other systems, like calendars, notes and contact managers.

Email Clients
