My Outlook does not check for mail automatically, I have to click the send/receive button to manually retrieve mail. I also notice that the rules do not run automatically either. I have to run them manually after syncing my mail.



I purchased this PC brand new a few days ago. I installed a fresh office 2016 and connected to my IMAP mail account. I imported the rules (and calendar and contacts) from the outlook set up on my old computer, but the mail itself synced normally from the IMAP server. I have tried deleting the .srs file, but this did not affect the behavior.

Any ideas how to fix this problem?
