[QUOTE="Jaygray, post: 738850, member: 50033"] My MB makes an odd bleeping noise from time to time which is caused by Microsoft Entourage. I have Entourage set to check my email once a minute. When there are no emails to be downloaded, it only takes a second. However, on occasion it downloads an email with a large attachment which take more than one minute to download. Every minute it checks for new emails, but if it is already downloading a large email from the minute before and hasn't finished yet, then it bleeps and logs an error. It seems that it can't check for new messages if it is busy in the process of downloading an old one. This temporarily causes an error until the large message is fully downloaded. It's not really an issue, because it only happens occasionally and the error goes away as soon as the message downloads. [/QUOTE]
