As you probably know, Outlook doesn’t offer a mechanism to schedule Internet mail downloads for a particular time every day -- like just before you get into the office.

It downloads the mail to my server’s hard drive -- usually faster than Outlook in Corporate can do it -- where the mail awaits your initial login.
