New Email Messages

[hiker0531]

I just installed Outlook 2007 on my new PC and for some reason the new
messages I received can only be received when I press the SEND/RECEIVE
BUTTON. My Outlook at work receives these new mail messages as they are
received. So how can I configure the system to make that happen?

There are two settings within the accounts
1) Send on starting
2) Auto send/receive every xx minutes - set this for 10 minutes

There are two settings within the accounts
1) Send on starting
2) Auto send/receive every xx minutes - set this for 10 minutes

The "setting" you mention in 1) doesn't exist. Specifying a send/receive
interval automatically causes Outlook to perform a send/receive at startup.
Perhaps you're thinking of the
Send immediately when connected" feature that causes Outlook to send mail
without waiting for the next send/receive event.

Moreover, 2) is not a "setting within the accounts". It is a Send/Receive
Group setting, not an account setting.
