automatic recieve/send when opening

[allen]

or some reasson or another, when I open outlook, the system does not
automaticly start receive/send as it does on my other computer the same
program from same windows/office program disks. I've compared all my
settings and they are the same.

Under mail options, send/receive on starting together with send/receive
every xx minutes?

You've said this before. Perhaps in some other language it's true, but for
English Outook there is no "send/receive on starting" setting. The "Schedule
an automatic send/receive every..." takes care of performing the send/receive
on startup. There is a "Perform and automatic send/receive when exitring"
option, however. Perhaps that's what you remember.

Like I said, I've checked the settings on each computer, and they are
identical. Neither computer is set to automatic send/receive at any
interval, but one automaticly receives when I open up the program window. I
get a ton of technical mail with drawings/pics/pdfs that take a long time to
download. I like it when I just open the outlook program and go get my
coffee while messages are downloading. It's only a small inconvenience to
have to hit the send/receive button, yet, i would like it to operate the
same as my other PC. Getting lazy and spoiled i suppose. There must be a
setting in setup somewhere.

I don't use the send/receive every XX minutes feature on either computer. I
prefer to have downloads start when I open the outlook program, and not have
to hit the send/receive button. There must be a setting in setup somewhere
that I have missed. But, I have went through computers sisde by side 3
times now. all my settings match, yet one downloads when I open the
program, w/out any other actions.

I can think of no setting that permits that. Do you have a mobile define
cradled on one PC.

That's "mobile device".

Allen, I am/was having the same problem and I think I found it. Tools,
Send/Receive, Send/Receive Settings and then "disable the send receive
scheduler" by clicking on it. When I restarted Outlook, the send/receive
automatically started.

Let me know,

Pat
