Why is it that everytime you open Microsoft Outlook (with SBM) the search
indexing program has to once again index thousands of files?
This is very time consuming and I suspect that on occasion it is causing
Outlook to crash. The reason I suspect this is that if I allow Outlook to
restart automatically it will just crash again whereas if I wait a little
while and let the search indexer clear up some of the files it has left to
index than Outlook starts fine.
I have been testing what happens if I close Outlook and then wait for the
indexer to finish (get to 0) and then open Outlook - the result is
predictable - the items left to scan will go up and up to a couple of
thousand and then s l o w l y work it's way back down.
I am using a Dual Core 2.4GHZ Intel processor with 4GB of Ram on Windows XP
SP2.
Any help would be appreciated as my machine is getting slower an slower and
I am now at the point of having to start Outlook and do something else for
10-15 minutes while the indexer does whatever it does!
I can't imagine why it has to re-index thousands of files just because I
stopped and started Outlook - note that this will happen whether or not I do
ANYTHING ELSE other than stop, wait for the index to finish, and then start
Outlook again.
