I previously used outlook express, and there was a box you could check to
automatically download email from the server, and you could type in the time
intervals, i.e. check for and download any new email every 5 minutes, 20
minute, 30 mintues, etc. I cannot find a similar feature in Outlook. Can
someone explain to me how set up MS Outlook to schedule automatic downloads
of new email from the server

Only if you provide your version.

Thank you. I swear that I followed that path and then nothing would happen.
This time, the dialogue box came up with what I was looking for. I guess I
needed your official word :-)

Thanks again.
