I've recently tried to begin using Outlook.com. My Microsoft Account is linked to my Comcast email address and I've got my Comcast email being received in a folder in Outlook.com.

 

However, it takes a LONG time to receive any new email from my Comcast account. How can I speed this up?

 

Thanks!

Okay I'm posting this because the thread I originally posted has been "locked" for some odd reason and I can no longer follow up.  Okay to recap I do NOT own a mobile phone so I cannot "Verify" my account via that option.  I was also advised by some of you that I should reduce the number of recipients until it lets me send the email.  Well guess what?  Even with only sending it to ONE person it says "please verify with your cell phone" and won't allow me to send-is there a programmer reading this?  Somebody with the power to override what is happening to my account?  All I want is to be able to send emails to my friends-and now I can't even send an email to ONE recipient.  I just signed up for this account yesterday and this problem is really unexpected.

If you try to drag a "placeholder file" picture from SkyDrive into a PowerPoint (or other Office) document, nothing happens. If you try to copy and paste the file, the Office program crashes.
