send and recieve external mail

[Will Austin]

I have a PC that will not send or receive automatically.
When I press the button it completes the microsoft
exchange server account and the external account continues
to show "processing". As it processing it adds more tasks
to complete which is the same external mail account.

Hi Wil,

please try this
First - Open Microsoft Outlook up. I use the XP or 2002 version, but this
should work for older and later versions.

Second - Go into the Tools menu and click Options.

Third - Go to the Mail Setup tab. Under the section "Send/Recieve" there
will be a button labeled..."Send/Recieve." Click it.

Fourth - Make sure you have the "All Accounts" selection in the upper box
selected. Then go to the check boxes beneath the white selection box and
click the checks to "Include this group in Send/Recieve (F9)" and "Schedule
an automatic send/recieve every ___ minutes." In the blank tell the program
how many minutes you want between automatic Send/Recieves.

The settings under "When Outlook is Online" would set how often you want it
to send/recieve when outlook is open. The other selection, "When Outlook is
Offline" is when it is not on.
