I have Outlook installed as part of my Office XP Standard package and for almost a year, I have had it do an automatic send/receive for all accounts every couple of minutes. Then this function stopped working for no apparent reason. I did not change any settings or do anything different. The other anomolous thing is that the "Apply" button on the "Mail Set up tab does not become bold when I change the settings in the Send/receive menu where automatic send/receive settings are adjusted. I performed Outlook's "dectect and repair" to no effect. I uninstalled Office and reinstalled to no effect. I downloaded all Service packs and patches from MS Office site to no effect. While I initially changed the settings to experiment, no setting will schedule an automatic send/receive. I had Norton anti-virus prior to the automatic send/receive not working, but upgraded to Norton SystemWorks Professional edition to run the windoctor, diskdoctor utilities, which did not help. How do I get automatic send/receive to work again?
