Checking new mail in Outlook 2003

[Prof M Avriel]

I switched now to Outlook 2003, OS WinXP + SP2. My mail server is IMAP.
Send/Receive takes ages to complete. I suspect that Outlook is checking
every folder for new mail instead of the Inbox only. I know I could
configure this in Outlook Express 6 (my previous mail program) but cannot
find this feature in Outlook. Any help would be appreciated.

I have heard with sp2 installed, checking for mail can be a bit slower. But
to change the settings for checking folders, check out the KB artilce
provided

This will show you the options and you can play around with it!
