I know Outlook is capable of retrieving messages from the server on start up
of Outlook, but for some reason my configuration is not allowing that. It is
also blocking my request for a '5 mins.' automatic retreival of message. I
am forced to retrieve every message by manual request.

Is this on a home PC or a work PC? What type of account?

Hi Brian

This is a home PC and the account is a POP. I know I have had this
convience on dial ups, dsl and now broadband.

I have gone over and over the index, the help sessions and faq's in windows
on line and nothing seems to reference this capability. Am I up in the night?

Are you saying that in the "Send/Receive Groups" dialogue box you can't
check the box labeled "Schedule an automatic send/receive every" and you
can't enter a value in the "minutes" field?

No that is actually marked as noted, It just does not function, etiher on
the timed basis or on outlook start up.

With Outlook closed, delete the SRS file in the (hidden) folder
%AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook and try again.
