Are you setting up your Hotmail account as POP or as an Exchange server? I believe the Exchange server only downloads attachments when prompted to.

No idea. Just using the Microsoft Outlook 2010 Startup wizard so far.

EDIT: It appears to be set to 'MAPI'?

Hmm.. I was under the impression it wouldn't load attachments at startup. I only use that setup on my phone and maybe the download part is what I think of as the setup so I never paid much attention to it.

Unless they removed there should be a download headers only option, I think it was under account settings. But I will be honest with you I haven't done this for years

Good call Teebor!
