How do I turn off Outlook's receiving of the mail?
 

I need to turn the automatic feature of Outlook receiving emails off.

I have another program that receives my emails for spam reasons and filters
them and I don't want Outlook to also try to access them from the web.

Thanks

I'm a bit confused - why would you even configure Outlook to check this
mailbox at all if you don't want it to receive mail?

Re your actual question - post your version of Outlook so we can try to
help. Always include that info when you post in here.

Uncheck the send/receive options then. Don't have Outlook poll for mail nor send/receive automatically.

Where are those options is I guess what I should have asked. I know I need to
turn them off and in OE I know where to do it but in Outlook, I do not know
where it is.

I just don't want it to receive mail directly. I am using Mailwasher and the
mail goes in there first, then what is spam is kicked out so I can get those
"friends" who write to me.

When I set this up from Outlook Express there is no problem for that program
has easy ways to set up receiving mail. That is what I have for my husband.
However, with Out look, I am missing something here. I am not scratching my
head furiously... I am just pretty sick of not being able to figure out this
program and thought someone would have an answer...

guess not. :(
