Hello Guys<br />
<br />
I can't seem to get my pop3 email to work.login to pop3 server works for users but it fails at smtp login. I tested telnetting to the smtp port and it works. It started after I had my router replaced therfore I had to setup all the port forwarding rules. everything works except for pop 3 email. Like I can use outlook web access , the company users can send and recieve emails to external users. Only some users who use pop email does not have it working.<br />
<br />
I have a sonic wall router and this is what i did for email part. created a service group and added all the email related services to it. like pop3 smtp, pop3 ssl and smtp ssl and forwarded them all to the lan address of the exchange address. Except for outlook, i setup a seperate service outlook web access and forwarded it to the corresponding server.<br />
<br />
<br />
Is there any thing obvious I am missing out here. Could some one help me out here.<br />
<br />
Please thanks

Pop  email not working after replacing sonic wall router

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.

Email Protocols

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
