I had a similar problem last night which I caised myself so perhaps this will halp. Whe I installed Exc last year the pop3 service did not install which up until now was no big deal. Now the customer would like to use pop3 so I attempted to get this service installed and working. Ok now, pay close attention... this is what NOT to do. I installed the built-in POP3 Service in Windows Server 2003 thinking I could use it, after some mods of course, with Exchange. What happened was all clients could send e-mail but could not receive, the senders were getting return messages, I did not check OWA. Expecting the worst I started thinking that I would need a sys state recovery but then decided to simply uninstall the POP3 service, restart and all was back to normal, whew! I only mention this because you said that you had configured a mail server pop3 and it sounded as though you ma be experiencing something similar to what I went through. Now, can someone tell me how to get the Exchange pop3 service installed?

Ok... what are my options at this point? Do I just remove the server in Exchange System Manager and start over?

How difficult would it be to relay/route our e-mails through another server on my network running XP and IIS 6.0?

Ok, its 15:06 here, I will be home from work at around 17:20 - would be able to do a session from 17:25 - not sure what time that would make it your end and if that is ok.
If you are interested then drop me a mail to the MSN address in my profile here.
Cheers
A

Hello everyone, I have had a look at msXchanger's config and I have come to the following conclusion;
It would seem that data in the "configuration" partition of AD is not replicating to the IIS metabase on his server, which therefore is not updating any of the web settings in Exchange. I believe that this is being caused by an RPC rule for ISA server (which is installed on the same machine). Whereas I am familiar with ISA server, I would not consider myself an expert in any sense of the imagination therefore I was hoping that someone with more ISA experience could take over.
The server is an SBS instance, and I think that when msXchanger changed the IP address of the server it has upset the ISA (2004) configuration some how.
Cheers
A

Wow, Hiya Rotor - how cool is this!
Anyway - I am the chap that ms was working with - although I will need him to confirm I am pretty sure that it was SP1 for Windows.
Cheers
A

Thanks, hopefully we can help get his issue resolved. Wanted to confirm the SP level before drawing to many conclusions. It sounds like classic RSS issue though. If not, we’ll need to dive into his ISA firewall policy.
Keep you posted,
Cheers

Which would be the easiest way to move/migrate at least ESM to another machine? Exmerge? Can I host the Exchange Server on a different machine than my IIS websites which may have dependancies on it, or do I have to move my IIS configs (which makes sense)?
Thanks.

Hiya mate, sorry for the delay - been working on a CCR issue.
If we are looking that that route - the best way would be to create a new Exchange server in the same organisation and move the mailboxes over - there is a defined process on how to do this - let me know if you would like to proceed and I will give you some pointers.
Cheers
A

I installed Exchange on a server as a test server. When i got the cd-rom i installed another copy that i registered for. I couldn't delete and uninstall the old one and now it keeps reminding me that this old server will expire in 60 days. Is there anyway i could run some cleanup on active directory to delete all references to the old server and what will happen when the 60 days expire will the new server stop working i am afraid this will affect the new server.

and need to get the e-mail running... so depending on how much later you can offer your help, I'd certainly would be willing to take it.
