In order for Outlook to perform a send/receive at startup, you must define a
send/receive interval.

Of course, I could use the built-in automatism to regularly
synchronize every x minutes.

And that's how you tell Outlook to perform a send/receive at startup.

The problem here is that Outlook doesn't
directly synchronize with online mailboxes but with a local mail
server.

Huh? You've lost me here. Whatever server Outlook uses to obtain your
messages is your server and it is with that that Outlook "synchronizes". If
Outlook is obtaining messages from the local server, then is is already
"synchrionizing".

Outlook can only synchronize when the mail server isn`t busy
itself with communicating with the external mailboxes. So a regularly
set synchronizaton interval in Outllok could interfere with the mail
server's activities which are controlled by continously running
script. The idea is to append a call to the program I'm looking for
at the end of each mail server cycle.

Perhaps if you give a more precise description of your mail flow, I'll
understand you problem.
