After years of fluid operation, my auto send-receive function in Outlook 2007 has stopped working. I use Windows 7 Professional. I am not using Microsoft Exchange Server.

I have all of the correct options selected under "Tools > Options > Mail Setup". This malfunction started a few weeks ago, and I cannot attribute it to any known upgrade or systems software change. I am current with my Windows Updates.

Any advice?
 
Three different email providers feed into my OutLook account, including gmail and Comcast. Manually clicking Send-Recieve works fine. So, I can certainly do that whenever I need to. I simply find it annoying that my inbox is not updating while I multi-task.
 
What is your scheduled send and receive time? It should be no less than every 8 - 10 minutes.
 
I had it set to every 10 minutes. Just now, I reset it to 15 minutes to see whether that has a positive effect. BUT . . . another symptom of the recent failure is that the program no longer accomplishes an Auto Send-Receive upon startup, even though that preference is set.
 
10 minutes should be fine.

Try this: find and delete or rename the SRS file for your profile. Type or paste %appdata%\microsoft\outlook in the address bar of windows explorer and press Enter to open the folder where the SRS file is. This the send and receive settings file.
