Is there a way to program/schedule the Outlook such that even when the user
doesn't log on, i.e. leaving the PC switched on without logging in, Outlook
will still retrieve email from the email server every 30 minutes?

Outlook has to be running to be able to retrieve emails.

Does that mean that if I schedule the computer to start Outlook when the
system startup no matter the user login to his account or not, it will start
retrieving email, provided if I configure it such that it will automatically
retrieve email every 30 mins?

As long as Outlook is configured properly to log into that account and send
and receive emails to/from it.
