Hi Guys

One of our bosses works from home and wants to be able to check his emails,
and he doesn't want to use Outlook Web Access, he is old and likes his
Outlook Express.

I have found Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 837368 and followed the
instructions there but it still doesn't seem to work, I've googled to see if
there was any thing else but as yet can't find anything.

Wondering if anyone here can give me some tips please :)

Any help would be appreciated.

In outlook express are the following entries correct.

Pop3 server = mail.ourdomain.com or should we use the external ip of our
domain.
User name = user or user@ourdomain.com
password = ********

thanks

Hi Marina


The pop3 services are running on the SBS server

The only error message I get are as per described in the microsoft knowledge
base on the client machine not on the server.

Is there any other instruction to check that all is correctly setup on the
server.

cheers
