I an wondering if someone knows where the info is stored for Tools-
Options->Mail Setup->Send/Receive. I have done a reg compare and it
does not modify the registry.

What data are you looking for? The account information visible in that
dialog is stored in the registry. The message id's for downloaded messages
is stored as a hidden file in your pst or mailbox.

I am writing a vb program/script to set this information to help
automate some work. I have found several settings in the registry but
this one eludes me.

Do you know if there is any way copy this file from on computer to
another? Do you know the name?

Thanks

You can copy the PST from one PC to another, but that won't mean the new
Outlook will know which messages were downloaded. Find the name of your PST
in Outlook's File>Data File Management on the source PC.

No, the hidden message can't be copied. Even if you move the pst, it won't
be used on the new machine - a new one will be created.

"Tools->Options->Mail Setup->Send/Receive" to setup an automatic send
and receive and a time on it.
