Windows 7: Outlook problems

I am having problems with Microsoft Outlook.
I have been sent e-mails one day and its been the next day before they appeared in Outlook and then not till I clicked Send/Receive on the Toolbar.
So today I sent myself an e-mail, 3 hours later it had never been received.
So I clicked Send/Receive a box and this message apperared:
1 e-mail sent
1 e-mail being processed
It started to process it then the message e-mail received.
But it is not shown in my In-Box or any other box.
Prior to installing Windows 7 I used Outlook Express and never had problems.

Any help on this appreciated.

Based on the version of Outlook that you have, there are options in outlook to immediate send of email and there is a check for incoming email time set. Usually it is in options email to check.



you might have to drill down to the options on email.
