problem connecting to pop3 mailbox sbs 2003

Asked by flynny in SBS Small Business Server, Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3), Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)

Hi all,

I'm trying to connect an external pop3 mailbox to a user on our sbs 2003 server (Service pack 2) . it seems to be connecting ok?

Now if i connect the mailbox to my computer laptop directly through pop3 then it works ok.

however i have added the mailbox using the pop3 connection manager;

mailbox type: user mailbox
exchange mailbox: user to pass the messages to.

also if i send and email to the box and then go into the webmail login i can se the sent message so it is getting picked up that end. If i then click 'retrieve now' in the pop3 connector and refresh in the webmail view the message has gone. so i assume it has picked it up.

next, if i  go to troubleshooting under service status 'Messages in Failed Mail Folder' is 0 and status is 'ready'. i've also set logging to maximum (and as this is the only pop3 account we arfe connecting set the undeliverable POP3 mail box to be the mailbox i'm trying to set the mail to go to anyway.)

likewise if i go to c:\program files\Microsoft Windows Small Business Server\Networking\POP3

both failed and incoming mail are empty.

If i got to the application log (attached there are no errors???).

I also followed the instructions found here;

http://www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Server/SBS_Small_Business_Server/Q_22778093.html

(at the bottom for adding a secondary smtp address.) but this hasnt worked either.

please can someone shed some light on this for me.

Many thanks in advance,

Matt.
