How do I extend the timeout period of Outlook's dial-up and connection? I need to have Outlook wait about 5 seconds more before it gives up attempting to connect to get e-mails. I have a feeling I need to go into the registry. Any help would be appreciated.

To find this Server time out option, Go to Tools->Accounts, highlight the account.
Click on the "Properties" button.
In the Properites window, click on the "Advance" tab.
In the middle, is a slider bar for Server Timeouts.
