Delay before received messages get in the inbox

I have a problem with my Outlook. Whenever someone sends me a mail, even to
the same Exchange server I am on, I do not receive it.

I have to click on a different forlder (For example: "Deleted items") and
then back to the inbox. Then I get the mail....

I have tried reinstalling Office, but it did not help.

Anyone know why it is so, and perhaps have a solution for it?

In advance, thanks.
 
Version of Outlook?

Make sure that UDP messages don't get blocked by any firewall in between as
well.

Outlook 2000, forgot to mention that.

But there is no firewall in between. Only the Windows XP firewall.

It is so strange. I have to click on a different folder before they get in
my inbox.

Do you have Office 2000 Service Pack 3 installed already? It holds fixes for
this issue as well.

Thanks to Roady for helping me out here. I have now solved the problem..

First of all, it was the Windows XP firewall which held back the UDP
packets. I tried to turn it off, and then everything went smoothly.

Having the Firewall turned off is nothing one wish to have, so I tried to
install the SR's and latest updates. (SR-1 was not even installed.)

SR-1: Still same problem
SR-3: Still same problem
Officeupdate.com: Fixed the problem.


So for all who have the same problem: Update your office with the latest
releases.
