Re: Using POP3 on a cellphone

Hi,

Thank you (about the fjords) - some of my best work.

I have tried:

'lwi', 'pcv-lwi' and '\pcv-lwi\lwi' as well.

It (Outlook Express) will only accept the full domain\username\mailbox
string: exdom\pcv-lwi\lwi

In this organisation the usernames and mailbox names are different. If
they were the same, I could omit the '\lwi' part.

This article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;161118 tells me
how to log on using the above domain\username\mailbox string as POP3
username.

As mentioned before, it works wonderfully in OE, but the cellphones are
less than amused with the before mentioned very explicit username.

Any ideas?


With kind regards,

Lars
