Outlook 2k3 - Auto Send Receive does not work
Outlook 2003, standard installation using POP3.
Have set auto send recieve to send/recieve every 1 min. (Tools | options | Mail Setup | Send/receive)
"Send immediatly" is checked
"Schedule an auto send/recieve every '1' min" box is checked
I have unchecked/restarted outlook, rechecked/restarted Outlook multiple times with NO success.
The only way to send/recieve is to manually hit the send recieve button (or F9).
Any ideas?
Also, under send/receive settings for accounts only the inbox folder is present, should i have the outbox (and others) there as well

Have you played around here?
Tools -> Send/Receive -> Send/Receive Settings
Is the email account you set up part of the Send/Receive group?

Take a look at this article:

1. On the Tools menu, point to Send/Receive Settings, and then click Define Send/Receive Groups
2. Under Group Name, click the group, and then click Copy.
3. Under Send/Receive Group Name, type the new group name, and then click OK.
4. Under Group Name, click the old group name.
5. Under both When Outlook is Online and When Outlook is Offline, click to clear the check box for Include this group in Send/Receive (F9).
6. Click Close.
7. Quit Outlook, and then restart Outlook.

I know you mentioned that you made the change for when Outlook is in offline mode, check and make sure Outlook is not in offline mode? File > Work Offline (should be unchecked).

I've seen this happen before where a mail server simply won't allow the connections because the requests are too close together. It assumes that this is not a legitimate request. Try changing it to 5 minutes and see what happens.
