Yes.  Outlook only does an automatic send/receive every 30 minutes by default, so there is often a lengthy delay between when something shows up in the webmail interface versus Outlook.  The polling interval needs to be reset to be shorter.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the info. I went to the page talking about setting the fetch rate. There was nothing about how to do it. At least I ouldn’t find anything on that page. I did a

search using Google and found some instructions. The first step is to:

Open the Mail app, then click on the Settings icon (it looks like a gear cog) in the bottom left corner of the screen.

It talks about clicking on the settings icon. I used the Jaws cursor and couldn’t find anything anywhere on the screen regarding the settings icon. I went through the menu and couldn’t find anything about settings for a particular email address.

Do you know where I would find the settings option in the menu?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi, Kevin. If you're using the Outlook email client,

1. Open Outlook.

2. Press ALT plus F, followed by T for Options.

3. Arrow down to Advanced, do not press ENTER.

4. TAB to a Send/Receive button and press ENTER.

5. Make sure the Gmail account is set to automatically send/receive.

6. TAB to the spin boxes and make sure the times are set for one minute, not 30 minutes.

7. TAB to OK, and press ENTER.

Now you should have a frequent send/receive time, which should cause your messages to appear in your Inbox when they should.
