Question

Windows Live Mail - fetches one one email at a time?

Sep 14, 2012 4:34PM PDT

I use Windows Live Mail to retrieve my Gmail emails, everything, servers, etc is set up correctly, however if I click on Send/Receive only one email is retrieved at a time despite there being 10 or 20 new emails (checked on the web interface).

I have to click Send/Receive and wait for the single email to download 10 or 20 or however many times! Most frustrating!
