    Agreed - nice ideas for non-existent things in the 'NEW' outlook as was explicitly stated in the original topic.

    How about the expert open the 'NEW' Outlook and actually give real path for how to make the changes.

    I swear to god y'alls new OS and these app interfaces are looking more like a Mac level of dumb.

    Nobody figured this out yet? There appears to be no option to change this setting anywhere in the New Outlook. I may resort to old Outlook just to change this setting....

    Hi Roger Greetings! Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I will be happy to help. I am a user just like you and only trying to advice/ assist in the best possible way to resolve your issue.

    While the interface has changed in Outlook New compared to the older versions, increasing the frequency of the send/receive action for new mail is still possible. Here's how to do it:

    Method 1: Send/Receive Tab

    Click on the Home tab. In the Send & Receive group, click on the Send/Receive All Folders button. Alternatively, press F9 on your keyboard.

    Method 2: Send/Receive Groups Click on the Send/Receive tab. Click on Send/Receive Groups. Select the group you want to modify the frequency for (e.g., "All Accounts"). Click on Define Send/Receive Groups. Under Setting for group [group name], check the box next to Schedule an automatic send/receive every n minutes. Enter the desired frequency in minutes (e.g., 15 for every 15 minutes). Click Close followed by OK to save the changes.

    Additional Notes: The minimum frequency you can set is 1 minute. Sending and receiving emails too frequently can impact battery life and internet bandwidth. It's recommended to find a balance between staying up-to-date and performance. For Exchange accounts using Cached Exchange Mode, Outlook automatically synchronizes emails in the background so manually adjusting the frequency might not be necessary. If you still can't find the Send/Receive tab or have any further questions, let me know and I'll be happy to assist you further.

    Hope this helps and answer your question. Give back to the Community. Help the next person who has this issue by indicating if this reply solved your problem. Click Yes or No below. Kind Regards -Adedayo
