Default Scheduled send/receive not working

I am using Windows XP and office 2007 SP1.

I prefer my emails to sit in my Outbox for 5 minutes before they are sent. This allows me to go back and make changes if necessary. I am sure we have all sent emails that we later regretted. I find this setting helps minimise such situations.

Problem is that, since upgrading to Outlook 2007, my scheduled send/receives no longer work. My emails just permanently sit in my Outbox (or until I manually hit Send/Receive).

I found this suggested solution on another forum, but it did not work for me.

"With Outlook closed, try deleting the file > %AppData%\Microsoft\Outlook\mailprofile.SRS (where "mailprofile" matches the > name of your mail profile) and then trying again."

I adapted this to Windows XP, but it didn't work:

C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Outlook.srs

Deleting the .srs file reset my default scheduled send/receive to every 30mins, but if I set it back to 5mins and wait, nothing happens.

Does anyone else have any suggestions please?!

Thanks!
