Outlook should let me do send/receive from minimized taskbar icon

[Antonio]

I am a person who likes shortcuts. One handy shortcut which should be in
Outlook is the one where when you right-click on the minimized icon in the
taskbar, there should be a menu option which allows you to do a quick
Send/Receive instead of restoring the window and then clicking on
Send/Receive.

I know there's the option where you can make outlook check your emails every
n-seconds, but some people don't want to have their computers set up like
that. They'd rather do the Send/Receive themselves. I think this will be a
really handy shortcut for those of us who are too lazy and conservative.

So "double-click - open Outlook" and "click - send and receive" is too
much for you? Why not try voice activation? You wouldn't have to move AT
ALL.

Sheeeeesh.

I understand your sarcasm, but there are organizations which can't afford to
talk to outlook to do things for them. Such organizations DO EXIST! We run on
really slow computers, so we need such shortcuts to minimize memory refresh
time when you have to restore the outlook window on the desktop - then click
on Send/Receive. We'd really love to work with voice - but we can't afford
to. I am sure the outlook team and microsoft would want to provide the best
service for everyone who actually use their services.

And for that, we'd appreciate your votes for such suggestions
