SBS 2003 exchnage can not get emails from my domain using pop connector
Hello,
I have SBS 2003 with exchange installed and retrieve my emails using the pop3 connector to retrieve emails from my ISP hosted email account (www.mydomain.com). However when I try retrieve my emails (name@mydomain.com) it willl not route to my specified user (name1). When i send and email to (name@mydomain.com) from outlook on the LAN from another user on the LAN it will get to my user account (name1). The only way that I can get the email (name@mydomain.com) is if I set the SMTP on the user properties box to name1@mydomain.local as the primary SMTP.
This is my setup:
username is - name1
email is - name@mydomian.com
x automatically update e-mail addresses based on recipient policy
Default Policy is set to
x SMTP @mydomain.com
x smtp @mydomain.local
I have tried every possible combination and the only way it works to recieve is to have it set to
x smtp @mydomain.local as the primary
However if doing this when i get an email from this user it shows up as name@mydomain.local

I never said i was using a Global Address I have a pop3 connector and setup the pop3 to go out and collect the email from my web hositng company and then deliver it to my account however the external emails will not get delivered to my account. But if i send an email from another user on the LAN which I would also send to from say a hotmail account it gets to the correct user by being sent from the LAn but not from the hotmail account.

Also if I just put the name@mydomain.local as the Primary SMTP in the Email Address section of the AD account properties everything works except that when I send email it attaches the email address as name1@mydomain.local instead of name@mydomain.com.

mipsmedia,
A "Global Address" means that you have only ONE POP3 account. If you have multiple POP3 accounts then you need to set up MULTPIPLE mailboxes in the POP3 connection manager.

As I understand your question, you are using name@mydomain.com as s GLOBAL mail box. And then you have set up routing rules in the POP3 manager to route to specific Exchange mailboxes on your network, correct?
Therefore, you can't have your username be name1 and your email be name@mydomain.com. You need to have your email set as name1@mydomain.com instead. You could try to set up a routing rule for this, but I think it would get confused.
Also, you don't need to change anything in the default policies of Exchange on an SBS machine (such as recipient policy) unless you have very unique circumstances. All changes to general email settings should be done through the Configure Email and Internet Connection Wizard.
I always recommend to avoid using the ISP POP3 mail if you can... usually the only reason someone wants to keep using it is because they don't have a static IP address... which can be overcome by using a dynamic IP service such as www.dynDNS.org .
Good Luck!
