The problem you're having is that the information (called "UDP packets")
that Exchange is sending to notify Outlook of changes to your mailbox is
being blocked by something. Possible culprits are proxy servers, firewalls,
and routers. Have your network administrator look at
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;815052 and see if
that might be the problem. If you can't solve the network problem, you can
set the registry values in
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q305572 (Outlook
2002) or
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q304849
(Outlook 2000) to cause Outlook to poll Exchange rather than waiting for
notifications.

I just upgrade two win2k machines to winXP professional and installed all
service packs. THe problem these machines are having is odd. I will be in
Outlook for a while, and no emails appear. As soon as I click on anything
in Outlook (Toolbars, another email, etc.) I get all of the emails that have
been sent to me all at once. Any suggestions would be helpful.
