since i upgraded to the latest version last week, my incredimail wont check for new mail by itself.

I usualy have it set to check every 3 mins.

I tried the incredimail auto-repair, no-good.

I have tried reinstalling it. no-good.

I can manually click on the incredimail icon to check for mail.

but the auto check will not work.

any help would be appriciated.

John.

My wife was a big fan of Incredi-mail. I called it BUGmail. It was only a matter of time before she got tired of the constant errors, etc. She's moved onto Outlook.

Have you tried deleting the account and re-adding it?

Failing that install Mozilla Thunderbird and change your life.

Incredimail actually contains spyware I forgot to add.

the funny thing is it worked great for months, and then it was intermittent for a few weeks and now nothing.

is their anything similar that automatically checks for new emails.

thanks

There should be an option to chage how often e-mail is fetched under the Tools|Options menu.

Out of curiosity, why check for e-mail so often?

If you want to be able to put it in the system tray you will need to install this extention.

The option to check for mail every X amount of minutes is under
Tools > Account Settings...
