I'm trying to reconstruct my system after a crash and I'm having
trouble getting my mail downloading to operate as it previously did.
Using OL98/WinXP I used to click the Send/Receive button and I would
get any new messages from my provider (Juno FWIW) as well as sending
any messages that might be in my Out box. Now when I click on the
Send/Recieve nothing happens immediately (and I know the server has
messages in its Inbox) but I will come back at a later time and I will
have new mail in my Outlook Inbox and the server Inbox will be
emptied. I must not have something right yet and any advice on what I
need to look at would be greatly appreciated!

I just found the problem. I was still logged into my juno account
through the web interface and this prevented Outlook from downloading
the mail.

Thanks for looking at this!
