supercoqui,
For the setting change, does the problem occur with only one account, or all accounts? Go to Tools > Options > Mail Setup. Make sure "Send immediately when connected" is selected.
Click Send/Receive button. Make sure the active sending group includes your account. Check both options for "Include group in send/receive".

thank for the input, the problem is on a computer in one of our hotels. I will be travelling there next week and trying all the different answers. The one that fixes it gets the points. Thanks a lot for the prompt input.

select the message above it, hold shift and select the one below it. Delete
all 3 - preferably using a shift-delete to rid you of the bad one forever.
If you need the two messages, ctrl+c then ctrl+p on each to make a copy
before deleting.

Hi supercoqui,
Try to start outlook in safe mode first as pointed out by war1 in step 4. If this opens outlook and you are able to recieve correctly, then most probably an add-in is interfering with the downloads or perhaps Word may be selected as editor.
Sometimes there are certain types of emails that can cause outlook to 'misbehave', If you can see the number of emails being downloaded stuck midway in between downloading, it will be mentioned at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. If it is so, then you need to remove that email via web access or if not possible, set outlook to download message headers only.
Awaiting your update......

Some setting in Outlook changed, an Outlook file is corrupted, or a program is interferring with Outlook. For the latter two,
1. Reset the Outlook toolbar template. With Outlook close, do a search for and rename outcmd.dat file. Restart Outlook and a fresh outcmd.dat file will be recreated.

Do the same for INETCOMM.DLL
