I have been using Apple mail but after a "new install" of Mavericks I decided to change to Outlook 2011.  I have patched to 14.3.9 and the program simply doesn't sync IMAP emails correctly.  I have 3 IMAP accounts and if I send an email from any one of those accounts to all the others it can take upwards of 30 minutes or more to sync the emails in the boxes without manual intervention.  If I click on each email account in outlook then it will download them immediately.  If I click on send receive it will download them immediately.  I notice that only the Default email account will "automatically" sync and that is slow and sometimes works, sometimes don't.  Here is what I have tried to remedy

I unchecked the AppNap in the outlook file get info 
I allowed all incoming connections via the OSX firewall
I have rebuilt and replaced identities several times and did a clean install of mavericks and outlook
I have changed the default email account around
I have changed the scheduled sync settings

Any advice is appreciated as I have had no luck searching on this issue
