Hello again. I am having a problem with Outlook 2003. I have a dialup modem and I am connecting to an exchange server to check my email. It takes about an hour to download my email everyday. I want to be able to close my internet connection after my send/receive is complete. I know you can do this on Outlook 2000 and Oultook Express but I cannot find out how to close the modem connection in Outlook 2003. Thank you in advance.

Last setting is hang up when finished.

 
Wow I think I need my eyes checked. Thank you very much.

Hi manguilla,
I found outlook 2003 terrible to use (over a dial up). It was slow, it was hanging frequently, couldn't do anything else in outlook while downloading. I got rid of it outlook 2003, and switched to the old outlook express - basic and good.
