You have to type it like this. For user: "JSmith" with a password of "football"

Telnet mail.myserver.com 110

USER JSmith

PASS football

Sorry i typed user twice before.

Right. I needed to sleep on this one.

Now im fresh and ready to go! :P

Lets try this from within the network. telnet to the server from INSIDE the network and try the

User userid

pass password

and let me know what it says.

Can you tell me what firewall you are using?

Ive also sent you a PM.

I guess we could try re installing the pop3 services.

But im not sure thats the next recommendation i want to make. Its a little drastic and im not even sure if it will fix it.

If you did want to do this you could by going to add/remove programs

then Windows componants

Then look for Email Services then pop3.

In the mean time i will keep my thinking hat on.

Sorry to have taken so long... yes, I'm not really happy with it, but I didn finally get it to work. Had to use (for login) domain\mailbox_name\alias_name. I'd really much rather just use user name for login, but I guess it can't work that way.

Thanks again for all your help.
