Don't receive mail until I click on a folder

Has anyone seen an issue using Exchange Server and Outlook where mail is not
received in Outlook until a folder is clicked on? I am thinking this is a
default setting somewhere in Exchange. Thank you in advance for any
assistance.

This issue is commonly due to UDP connectivity problems. New email
notifications are pushed from the Exchange Server via UDP; should a problem
arise with UDP connectivity, Outlook will behave in exactly the fashion you
describe, new email won't appear you change folders.

I have similar issue, but what you explained would be site wide, it is only
happening 3 client computers, it also works same with sending, emails will
sit in outbox until a folder is clicked. Any help would be very much
appreciated

I am using MS outlook 2000 - the same thing happens with me - I am the only
one this affects in my office.
Messages also get 'stuck' in my outbox.
any advice greatly received!

I am searching for a solution to this exact issue. It appears no resolution
was found for the original question in 2005. Anyone have a solution?

Recap: My new e-mail does not show up in the inbox until i have left the
inbox and opened another folder and come back to the inbox....tada it's there!
