Port 110, exchange, email, outlook

Hi guys/gals.

I have a request to open port 110 so that some of the company directors can download their emails to local system.

I need to know what are the security complications? we have secure email access. but this one director is really pushing for it. new to the board. anyways, we need to get a policy out, new company getting many things up.

other question can you isolate who can access port 110, or if you open it, its free for all?

pros/cons... etc....

thanks

server is 2008R2 and exchange 2007.

Or just drop POP3 and use Outlook Anywhere or OWA

We have outlook anywhere configured. and OWA. the user is being very difficult. they pretty much are demanding this. we seem to have a fair few users that just dont care about network security, and we hold very high level secure information. worse when you have members of the board not caring about risks. we put forward all this.

we are going to implement a UAG solution for improved network access. but these users only have mail access. and they dont want to use owa. if you open the port. 110 or 995, can you manage/limit who can use this?
