automatic download of messages in Outlook

I can only receive and send messages from/to my ISP when

Outlook and I would like for them to be sent when hitting
send. What setting is incorrect wrong? In Mail Setup I
have the box checked to send immediately when connected...

You need to check an automated polling option in your email options->send
receive settings.
