This is my first post on these forums. Please treat me well.
Anyway I'd like to have Pocket Outlook check my POP server more often than every 15 mins. Does anyone know how to change it? Perhaps by editing registry values? About once ever minute would be great!
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reply. I have a Cingular 3125. It has ActiveSync, but Outlook connects to the internet via Cingular's serivce and checks for my Gmail from Google's POP3 server. I guess I don't understand how changing ActiveSync settings would help.

Your post is weird. but lets see.
Your computer checks the emails and syncs them with your phone?
If that's the case:
Start Outlook, go to the settings, than the Email Setup Tab and click on the send/receive button and change the time.

activesync won't do anything. basically, the device itself checks pop/imap servers every 15 minutes to 12 hours. the lowest option is 15 minutes, and is not changeable. the only way to get it instantaneous is to run off a corporate email server.
if you're speaking of outlook on your desktop, then doing a send/recieve every couple minutes is the only way to speed it up. but i believe you're speaking of the device itself, aren't you?

I'm sorry my post was a little vauge, I left out the imporant part about it being Pocket Outlook.
It's just as steva11 describes in his first paragraph. The device itself checks the POP server. The lowest option is every 15 minutes, the theory being that it saves battery power and data transmission fees. I don't care about either of those things and was hoping someone might know some registry setting or program which would be a workaround.
Since I don't have a corperate email server, Microsoft Echange Push Services aren't really an option unless anyone knows of a company that provides such services for a fee.
