Exchange 2010 Mailbox

I have a user mailbox that constantly freezes to the point where it's not usable. I tried moving it to a new database in Exchange but that didn't clear anything up. I did notice that when I'm moving the mailbox it says the mailbox size is 8GB. The mailbox is nowhere close to that size. The actuall size is around 200MB. I ran a MailboxRepairRequest on it but that doesn't seem to have done anything either.
I have set this profile up a new computer as well and the issue persists.

It seems to work fine through OWA. Any ideas of what could be causing this?

I am using Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2010.

It's not a corruption, it's more likely to be whitespace in the EDB files.

However, recreating the mailbox is a good plan.

I created a new mailbox and imported the .pst but the problem remains. It doesn't seem to freeze up completely like it did before but it's still slow and freezes for a couple seconds at a time.

It appears the issue was a recurring meeting which was causing a bunch of errors. I deleted the meeting and everything started running normal again. Thanks for replies!

Corruption was the issue. Finding it was not too much fun. :)
Yeah...it sounded like corruption with that one mailbox and not whitespace in the database as you didn't report any other users having the issue.


Glad I could help.
