Outlook 2007
This question has been covered before (see thread above) but left unanswered
questions. For several months 2 computers in our office have had the check
Box "Send Immediately When Connected" unchecked and could leave and go back
in without triggering mail sending. The polling was set to every 2 minutes
but we believed this overridden by the foregoing checkbox. Now all of a
sudden with no known changes, mail is being sent automatically upon starting
the program.

Brian said in the referenced thread, re the checkbox:
That has nothing to do with performing a send/receive, at startup or at any
other time.

I will say one thing, though. While Outlook will perform the send/receive
at startup, I've seen it skip some accounts (even with only a single
send/receive group) during that initial send/receive.

I've tried clearing all the polling options and nothing seems to now stop
the mail being sent at startup. Also tried setting polling to 1000 minutes.

Any help?

If you do not want the messages to be send automatically at all, then you
should exclude the account sending from the send/receive group.

Tools-> Options-> tab Mail Setup-> button Send/Receive...-> button Edit...
Select the account and disable its option; Send mail items

Another way to do it would be to work in Offline Mode;
File-> Work Offline

Roady: thanks for responding so fast. Tried your instructions. Still sends
automatically. (This is only happening when I close Outlook and go back in;
does not happen as long as the program stays open. But I need to be able to
close and re-start.) I've tried every suggestion I found and nothing stops
the auto send under these conditions.

If you do not want the messages to be send automatically at all, then you
