on other version of Outlook as soon as you started it up, it checked for mail
how do I do this in OutlookXP?
is there something I put in the command line for this to happen?

This is OE6, but there should be a similar option in Outlook XP.

This can be reached by Tools > Options

Yes, it is there but seems to be a bit more hidden in XP like they were afraid that everybody's a bunch of idiots or something. Anyway, you just go to Tools, options, mail setup and then right next to the Send/Receive Button, there is an option to have it send on startup.
