The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.0b
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.2
This article was previously published under Q93567 SYMPTOMS
Choosing Select All from the Edit menu sometimes fails in folders that
contain a large number of messages.
CAUSE
The Select All function attempts to select as many messages as possible
within a 15-second time limit, and aborts the attempt if all messages are
not selected in 15 seconds.
RESOLUTION
The amount of available memory and the computer's processing speed both
affect Select All; it may be successful if you can remove concurrently
loaded applications or use a faster computer.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in versions 3.0, 3.0b, and 3.2
of Microsoft Mail for Windows. We are researching this problem and will
post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
