Do you regularly compress your Outlook folder?
Right click on the Outlook in the Outlook Shortcuts tray and select Properties. Click on the Advanced tab under the General folder in the new window and then click on "Compact Now" in the new window.
Search for Outlook.pst and see how large it is. If it's over 1GB or 2GB, you probably should do some cleaning.

Dave,
While I cannot help solve your problem, I can tell you being a fan of Firefox, I DID download Thunderbird. That only lasted a couple of days before I uninstalled it and went back to Outlook.
I have never had the problem you are having. Do you have the "delete mail from server after download" box checked?

Carl,
I'm using Outlook 2003 and have used an exchange server. I don't have an Exchange profile.
I will try the unchecking but since I am closing in on 1000 folders, that will take some time.
Thanks for the suggestions,
Dave

Dave,
Try checking that box. I bet it will do the trick.

Chuck,
Forgot to ask, what didn't you like about Thunderbird?

I really cannot remember as it has been quite awhile, but I just thought it was not as intuitive as Outlook.
