erm, what mail system are you connecting to? If it supports MAPI or IMAP4
then you can do this. If you are connecting to a POP3 account then no.

Not quite right - if you set a time for polling, then even with a POP
account, mail will be automatically collected on start up of Outlook.

Incorrect advice.
All the user needs to do is set an automatic Send/Receive interval for any
currently supported version of Outlook.

Specify a send/receive interval and Outlook will download mail at startup.
