How do I configure Outlook 2003 to automatically check for mail when I open Outlook, or to receive incoming mail when Outlook is already open?

Right now I have to click on the send/receive button or I do not get any mail.

I don't have outlook in front of me, but if you go under "tools" and then "options", you'll see a setting under one of the tabs to "automatically check for new messages every X minutes".  Set that for somewhere between 1 and 5 minutes, your preference.

Dump outlook, and use Thunderbird.
