Event ID: 12050
I recently installed SBS 2000 and setup exchange to
download emails using the POP3 connector. I can send
emails but can not download them from my IS. I looked in
event viewer and found the following messages

Source: POP3 Connector
Type: Error
Category: Download
Description:
POP3: Failed to check the POP3 account for Username at
host Hostname on port 110. The error is 58.

Event ID: 12052
Source: POP3 Connector
Type: Error
Category: Download
Description:
POP3:An error occurred during a POP3 transaction to host
Hostname[IP_address]. For user Username. The error is 58.


How can I make this work??


Thanks in advance
Martin

It looks like you have not set up the right username on
the POP3 connector. When you set up the connector, it
must be exactly the same as if you were connecting to an
Internet e-mail client - so, for example, you must set it
up as username@ispname with the correct password. and
remember, you will be connecting to the POP3 server at
your ISP (sometimes the servers are named differently for
POP3 and SMTP.

Good luck

Richard

I may have some bad news here... do you know if your ISP's POP3 server
requires secure password authentication (SPA)?

If that's not the case make sure you follow Richard's advice and that you
have enabled POP3 outbound access. Can you telnet to your pop3 server on
port 110?
