📎 AI Summary:
Ron Binmore reports that Outlook does not automatically receive emails upon opening, requiring manual intervention to check for new messages; he suspects a setting may have been altered. Holdum333 suggests seeking general Outlook help, though they are more familiar with Gmail. Neemobeer provides a specific solution, advising to enable the "Send immediately when connected" setting in Outlook's Advanced options to ensure automatic email retrieval.

When I open Outlook to get my email, instead of the mail automatically come to my screen, I have to click on "Send and Receive">"all" before anything comes in.

I have had a problem with my computer and I am wondering whether something has been turned off which has affected the automaticcally upload of my mail. If anyone can advise me as to how to overcome this little problem I will be very grateful.

Thanks

Office 2010/2013/2016 should be similar
  • Click on File
  • Click on Advanced
  • Scroll down to Send and Receive and check "Send immediately when connected"
  • You can also click the Send/Receive button for finer control on the frequency of email pulling
