New messages not downloading in Outlook 2007
I set up Outlook as an IMAP account to download all my GMAIL. I "fiddled" around with some settings -i.e. subscribing to some folders and changing my settings in the Send/Receive Edit dialogue box to download the message bodies and not just the headers. Now, no new messages will download. Somebody help, please!

Sorry, I really meant to thank you - nobody has ever taken the trouble to solve my problem for me. It means if I want a permanent copy of my e-mails I have to POP them, not IMAP them! Too bad, because I have tons of e-mails in "folders" in GMAIL, and it would be so much easier if IMAP had the capability to download the body of the e-mails. Now I'll have to sort through all the stuff and put them in "regular" folders. But I can only read them in IMAP if I have an internet connection, whereas with POP I can read them offline.

I forgot, if you want to give me more education about POP and IMAP, I'm all ears.

Thanks for real.
