I am working with this exact problem now. Just got a new laptop, set up all
in the office on the domain. Was running 2003, went up to 2007. PST files
were copied from the 03 to 07 machine. We are using a POP3 service for email
but also have exchange running for some public folders. When in the office
domain, all is well. When I am Offline - at home, I cannot see new emails.
I know they are coming in when send/receive is done. I can log into the
webmail service and I can see the messages leave the POP3 service when
outlook does the send/receive. I have to check tomorrow, but I think this
morning when I connected to the domain, all of the mail showed up that I did
not see last night. It was like they were hiding in my machine until I went
to work :-)

I ran cleanviews, repair, detect, updates and many tests. I have not
reinstalled outlook completely yet.

The problem is, I really need to "see" my email while I am away from the
office too. Any other comments?
Thanks, Mike

Hi,

I've found the solution to this now.
Before I upgraded, I lost connection to our Exchange Server (which we don't
use for e-mail, only for public folders).
When I re-connected, all my lost mail suddenly re-appeared.
I don't know why this is, as all the mail was pop3 on a Linux server
elsewhere, and all mail should be delivered to my local pst.

I know, I should have mentioned about the Exchange server in my first post,
but really didn't think it could have been causing the problem.

Hi,

I've just upgraded from Outlook 2003 to 2007.
The upgrade seemed to have worked, all my accounts are there, as are
my folders and inbox.

It then seemed I was receiving no mail, so I sent a couple of tests,
and they did not appear in my inbox.
I then sent a test with a large attachment. I could see this being
downloaded, but it did not appear in my inbox.
If I do a search, the new mail does not appear, but if I then click
"search all mail items", the new mail appears in the search. The
thing is, it tells me it's in "Personal Folders" in folder "Inbox".
If I then go back to my inbox, it's not there. No new mail is in the
inbox, it's the same e-mail as before I upgraded.
I've checked the folder where the new mail is going to for all
accounts, and it's the same pst that it opens by default.
I've checked all my open folders for the mail, but it's not there.
The only folder that appears to be getting new mail is "Junk e-mail",
and it is spam, none of my tests or other new mail is in there.
There are no filters set for the current view.
Any ideas please?

Thanks for any help,
Scott.
