Hey Gang!
Using Outlook 2003 with WinXP Pro. I notice that when I check for new mail -
either the automatic check or manually using Send/Receive - the floppy drive
whirs and whirs even though there's no floppy in the drive.

Am I missing a setting somewhere? Thanks in advance!

You probably last saved or opened something from diskette in Outlook. Store
something to your My Documents folder and it should be gone
