Anyone seen this before ?
I have two people sat in an office with Outlook 2003 on both machines, both having the same IMAP account in Outlook. Its a new email address with a minimal amount of email on it at the moment. They share the work from this one email account and both want to see it on their PC's.
Today one has been getting the following error:
Can't open this item. The operation could not be completed because the connection is busy performing other tasks. Please try again later.
Outlook then appears to lock up until it gives them the 'Microsoft Office Outlook is not responding. Close the program|Wait for the program to respond' dialog box. That can be several minutes later.
I cant find anything on the web of any real use. They have an average internet connection through VF (typically 8-12Mb) and run several applications through web browsers, so are doing multiple things at the same time, but I've never seen this error before.
