Entourage 2004 Using Excessive CPU

[pacopablo]

Version: 2004
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: Exchange

I'm using Entourage 2004 on a MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz with 4GB RAM.

Today I created a bunch of folders (8 in total) and divided up the 9,000+ messages that I had in one folder into the new folders.

Now, entourage always seems to be in a state of "updating" one folder or another and is consistently using between 50% and 100% CPU.

The issues seems similar to:

However, I am not running Sync Services (and it's not eating CPU, just Entourage) and I cleared out my ~/Library/Application Support/Sync Services to no avail.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Did you do this with Entourage or Outlook/OWA?

How long do you give it?
