ringfinger Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Outlook 2003 SP2SMTP & POP3 thru comcast.net serversBasically what I want is to be able to receive emails as soon as whoever's sending me an email hits "send" and it's processed thru the servers. Just like when you're sending an email and you send it it's automatically processed and sent. Is there a way to do this?? It works this way in a W2k network environment with an Exchange server and Outlook XP, is it only possible on a network? I know about the time intervals, and a send/receive setting of 1 minute is alright, just would rather everything be instant w/o envoking Send/Receive. Thanks All.

chilifrei64 Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 POP/SMTP mail is pull based meaning you need to run a send a receive from the client to get the mail.. Exchange is a type of push based.. If you have outlook open and it is configured with an exchange account you will see it immediately.. Not gonna happen with POP mail.

meno Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 You can set outlook to send/recieve every x minutes though. (Under Send/Recieve Settings) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
