Please go to Tools > Options > General and check "Check for new messages
every "X" minutes. and for "X", put in how many minutes you would like
that to be. 15 is a good number.

Please include enough of the previous message(s) so that others trying to
follow this thread know what you are talking about. Also please try to
"edit out" the non relevant portions. It helps everyone. If you are using
Windows Mail, Go to:
Tools > Options > Send > check - "Include message in reply"
