1 - Select "Schedules" from the Tools menu.
2 - Click "New"
3 - Enter a name ("Get Mail", etc)
4 - Select "Repeating Schedule" under When, and enter a time value.
5 - Add connections for each account you want to have checked.
6 - Click Okay.

Just a suggestion - the way I'm running OE5 is that I modified the 'Send & Receive All' schedule so that it runs both at startup and then every ten minutes, but only if I'm already connected... works well!
