Windows Live Mail won’t stop downloading new messages, even though disabled.

I do not want Windows Live Mail to automatically download email messages, I only want to do this manually when I click the send/receive button.

I have disabled these options under Options > Mail > General Tab - all 3 options under Send / Receive Messages are unchecked.

However, the program still seems to download email messages from all my accounts every 8 hours.


Any ideas why the program is still downloading emails even though these options are unchecked?
