The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

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.
