Under tools, options, there appears to be an option to change how often Windows Mail checks for new messages. Mine is set at 30 minutes and when I try to select a different time interval (say one minute) after I close the box, it reverts to 30 minutes. I can see no apply or OK box at the bottom of this option box to click on before closing the window. Does anyone know how I may solve this problem?
Thank you. sock

There should be OK - CANCEL - APPLY buttons on the bottom. Can you move the window up on the screen?

It may be that it needs a longer time interval, I set mine at 12 minutes and it works. Try it!

One minute is too short. You will hang the mailbox on your mail server. Anything over 5 minutes is fine.

Thanks, Jerry, but that didn't work for me. Do you have an Apply or OK button at the bottom of your screen? I can't see mine. sock

Hi, I agree with others that you shouldn't check for mail too often.
After changing the time interval, hit Enter.
Or change your screen resolution so that the entire window shows. Right-click the desktop> Personalization> Display settings. Try a higher resolution
Hope this helps, Don [MS MVP- IE]

I think Don Varnau has the answer to your screen problem, Go to a higher resolution. It makes a more condensed or smaller window so you can see all the buttons.

Thanks, Don. You had the anwwer. I hit enter after changing the time interval and it stuck. I will also explore your suggestion of changing the resolution that you suggested. I really am grateful for your assistance. Thanks so much! sock

You're welcome. I spend a fair amount of time with a 14" monitor at 800 x 600 so I encounter similar situations occasionally.
