Mail not getting through for ISP
 
OL 2007 and Vista.

All my mail is (was) backed up at my ISP. They have checked everything at
their end and all is fine. I get the occassional mail but had 80 mails in my
ISP mail box.

I tried repairing OL this didn't help. I then unistalled Office 2007 with OL
2007 and reinstalled. Still the mail was not collected from
"mail.btinternet.com". I call ed the ISP and agian they said all was well at
thier end. They suggested I set up MS mail and give it all the same details
as OL has which I did. 89 e-mails came straight in to MS mail and all was
retrived fine. But I want OL 2007 to work as it should as MS mail is not
right for me.

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

Does the Test Accounts function without errors?
Is the polling interval (auto send/receive) set for at least 10 mins?
If you have intergrated anti virus, uninstall that, reboot and retest

Are you using a virus or spam scanner on incoming mail? They can cause
issues such as this. The only other reason outlook wouldn't download all the
mail is if it was malformed. When this happens it usually stops downloading
until you get rid of the bad message (by deleting it online).

Yes it does.
No rerrors on send and receive either.
Send receive is set for 1 minute.
I have an Mcafee anti virus that my ISP installed "British Telecom" and
insites on.
I few e-mail do get though but very few.
All are well with MS mail and I find this most strange.

How can I find a bad message? I'll happily junk it if I can find it.

MY ISP installed new Macafee virus scan but they (British Telecom) must have
several millions users in the UK, so I guess this has been well tried and
tested.

Uninstall McAfee, reboot, reinstall McAfee *without* the outlook integration
Set your polling interval to *10 mins* or more
That will cure your probs

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.....

Ok Gordon calm down.. how do I set to 10 mins please?
