Outlook sending but not receiving
« on: August 10, 2007, 04:43:35 AM »
I am using Outlook 2003 with Windows XP.  Everything else is fine but for the last 36 hours, I have not been able to receive mail.  It sends ok.

When I hit 'Send/receive' it says, "receiving status 50%" then says, "receive complete" but there's nothing there.  I've tried testing it by sending emails to it from another account but they don't come in.

Any ideas would be most gratefully received.

    I would recommend backing up your outlook profile and then deleting it.  Uninstall outlook and reinstall.  This usually solves any problems with being able to send/receive emails.  But before you do that....are you behind a firewall of any kind?
