Outlook is not checking mail

I have Outlook set to check mail every 5 minutes for all accounts but it
does not check it. It works fine when I hit the send/receive button and at
startup but that's it. It used to work. I don't know what changed.

Please don't tell me to do something stupid like change it to 10 minutes or
to change my computer to point North.


Can anyone help?
Thanks,
G

Try deleting the file %AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\yourprofile.srs,
restarting Outlook, and resetting your send/receives settings. If that
doesn't work, try creating a new mail profile.
