Email Line Disconnect parameter

I support a small business with a NeoServer 150 Internet Plus with 5 PCs connected on a standard British Telecom dial-up line. The server is configured to dial the ISP every two hours to send and retrieve mail, and the server is configured to drop the connection after 5 minutes (which appears to be the minimum value for this parameter). We would prefer to send/receive more frequently, but with a much shorter line disconnect parameter, say one minute - or even better, an option to hang up after the send/receive session is completed, in the way that Outlook Express can be configured. This would save approximately 200 pounds per annum, which is significant for a small company (we are in the UK, and pay for local calls). Is there any way of achieving this ?

Grateful for any help

Tony Lunn

PS we are running ASOS version 2.6 though plan to upgrade.
