Default Outlook 2007 Checks Mail Too Often

Which method of verifying the send/receive interval are you using?
Are new mails actually being downloaded every minute?

If you create a new mail profile, does it still happen then?

Roady, I closed Outlook, renamed both .srs files to .old and rebooted.
When I opened Outlook, it checked mail as usual. It also checked again
about 60 second later. It appears that forcing a new .srs file did not
fix the problem.

Locate the srs-file for your mail profile and rename it to .old when
Outlook is closed. This will reset your send/receive settings.

I started Outlook in safe mode, and it still sends/receives every 60
seconds or so.

After turning both off, shutting down Outlook, rebooting the PC and
restarting Outlook, without changing any thing, are you saying it still
auto sends / receives?
If so, and this shouldn't have any impact, if you restart Outlook using
the safe switch, does the problem continue.
StartRun........outlook.exe /safe
(note space between exe /)

DL, I turned off send/receive on startup. I also turned off auto
send/receive, and then applied. After the reboot, I started Outlook.
It still checks for new mail every 55-60 seconds.

If you turn off auto send / receive, does it stop?

If so and you shutdown outlook, reboot the PC, then open Outlook and
reset auto send / receive, is it now ok?

This is a POP3 account, home computer, no networks.

Which mail account type are you using?
This is normal behavior when connecting to an Exchange server.

I have Outlook 2007 scheduled to send/receive All Accounts every
10 minutes; however, it has been checking for new mail every 50-60
seconds. I changed the check frequency to 5 minutes, and then 15
minutes, but the problem persists. I use MSE and Windows Firewall
with standard settings on this Windows 7 64-bit system. Outlook
2007 is working properly in all other respects. How can I fix
this problem?
