Outlook not so good.
The application that I’m working on politely emails me when things go wrong and normally this is great. However, let’s say you leave it running all night and an error happens 5 times per second for 8 hours, not so good. So, for the past hour my CPU has been at 100% as Outlook chews on all the emails I recieved last night. The horrible thing about this is that as I delete 1000 messages, I get 1000 new ones. So far I’m up to about 2:15AM and I’m just now getting emails timestamped at 2:25AM. What fun!
Update: I created an Outlook rule to move the emails to a folder and perm delete them when 1000 were moved in there… 4 hours later my CPU finally came down from 100% and I could use the compy again.
