Automatic Send/Recieve not working when Outlook 07 Loaded

G

Guest

All of my setting are set correctly to automatically send and receive every
minute. However when I load Outlook 2007 it will not send and recieve when I
load it. I also have to manually hit "Send/Recieve" the first time and then
it will begin to check every minute after that. I did not see a option for
"send/recieve upon startup" so maybe there is an option I missed. I know, I
would suggest a fix.

Thanks,

Your settings are hardly correct if you have them set to poll every minute.
The minimum interval should be 10 minutes.
Post the rest of your settings and mail account type. We have no idea what
else you've done wrong when you provide no information.

Not sure what setting you are looking for? But...

Under Options, Mail Setup...
- Send immediately when connected is checked
Under Send / Recieve Options
- Schedule Automatic Send/Recieve 1 min

It is difficult to determine why automatic polling is failing when you do
not post your mail account type, connection type and polling settings.
In general, here are the reasons automatic polling might fail in Outlook:
1. You have created an unrealistic polling interval. Many users set their
polling interval to 1 minute thinking they will be downloading mail
continuously as it arrives. Such settings are not recommended. They put an
unnecessary strain on mail servers and can create conflicting polling
requests that can damage your Send/Receive Group or even your account
settings. 10 minutes is the recommended minimum.
2. While exiting Outlook, you inadvertently set your profile to Work Offline
(this option is immediately above the Exit command in the File menu).
3. You have a damaged Send/Receive Group as documented here:

4. You have overridden your Send/Receive Group settings as documented here:

5. Your mail account settings are corrupt. Recreate your mail account from
scratch.
6. Firewall software is blocking your transmission. Disable your Firewall
temporarily to see if automatic polling is restored.
