why does it only send and receive when i open outlook? if i want an email to
sendi have to close it then open it again.? help
 
This is not an Outlook group. But you can set the options in Outlook to send
and receive every X amount of time you choose.

Good luck
 
sorry meant windows mail. i have done this and still no joy. even if i
manually press send and receive it does not work
 
That type of problem is often caused by interference from a non-
compatible antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus programs.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
