Windows 7: How to show Send/Receive dialog automatically

Just upgraded to 7 x64. Previously when checking mail in Outlook Express, the send/receive dialog box would automatically pop up to show you the progress of your email downloads. Live Mail doesn't do this unless you specifically hit the Send/Receive button.

I know there's the small message in the status bar at right, but I've always liked the way OE just popped the box for you.

Is there a way to make this happen in Live Mail?

Thanks.

Close before sending is completed.

I want the progress dialog to show automatically when the mail app is opened, just as it did in Outlook Express.
