Automatically Poll IMAP Folders

L

LynnQ

Hi there,

Perhaps this is a setting I've missed. I know that Mac Mail does this, but
does Entourage have the feature whereby it automatically searches and
updates/uploads all the new/changed messages on IMAP folders? I'm using
Office 2008 on Leopard (both latest updates).

If it does, how do I enable it?

Thank you!

OK, I checked my settings again and removed the check mark to check Inbox
only. I'll see if that makes a difference. However, if there's something
else I need to do then please advise. Thanks again.

Hello again,

I think my question has been lost in the shuffle. The change in setting
didn't change anything. So, how do you get Entourage to automatically poll
all the IMAP or LIVE folders to refresh the number of messages and download
them automatically into Entourage, this without having to click on each
individual folder and wait for the downloads.

Thanks again!

Do you have Live Sync turned on?

Tools > Accounts > (your account) > Options > Live Sync

Note that this feature is not supported by all IMAP servers.

Hi there,

Thanks for the response. Yes, in my MAC account the Live Sync is turned
on. However, it's not apparently available for my paid Live mail account.
I have it set to connect immediately on launch.

Are there other suggestions that might help?

Much appreciate any ideas. Thanks again!
