Send receive is set for 1 minute.


Which means that your mail servers, both POP and SMTP haven't got any
time
to deal with the packets before the next lot come in! Why do you think
the
default polling time is set for ten minutes.....

Thanks Goron understood, but send/receive has been set on 1 min since I
installed OL2007 2 years ago nearly and this is the first problem.

Any ideas please why OL 2007 won't collect my mail when MS mail will?


There are a number of reasons why this might happen. One is that your
firewall isn't configured to allow Outlook to access the port. Another is
that you have an antivirus or -spam scanner integrated with Outlook and it's
interfering. Exactly what does happen when you click Send/Receive? Any
errors? How about when you click the "Test" button in the account properties?
Did you enable diagnostic logging to see what happens during the send/receive
process?

I have an Mcafee anti virus that my ISP installed "British Telecom" and
insites on.


Sorry, but British Telecom does NOT insist on this. YOU installed it, not
they. Uninstall it and see what happens.

I few e-mail do get though but very few.
All are well with MS mail and I find this most strange.


What's "MS Mail"? Are you referring to Windows Mail?

That's the fun thing about problems. You never know when they'll start.

Yes it does.
No rerrors on send and receive either.
Send receive is set for 1 minute.

insites on.

Since when has BT insisted (if that's the word you meant) on McAfee???

As an FYI, the default is 5 in Outlook 2007, 30 in 2010.
