Unnecessary messages from the outlook program + ...

[john.rowntree]

Hi there...

When I've pressed "send and recieve" and waited... there are two
messages from the program which I think should not be necessary and
could be dispensed with possibly ??

Message 1. says, new mail has arrived would you like to read it now.

Message 2. says, it has been moved.

we know that the email messages that it's refering to are spam and have
duly been put into
the norton antispam folder... so why are these messages necessary and
how do we configure to get rid of them.

when I press "send and recieve" at the beginning I would like to see
and read email messages and not press two more buttons.

Also ... is it possible to get the program to automatically "send and
recieve" on opening up instead of having to press "send and
recieve".? ...Or maybe it does by default and I've changed it...

You first: what version of Outlook?

It's hard to say on the other problem without a better description of the
dialog and the version of outlook - do you have a rule set up to alert you
when messages arrive?
