RE: Exchange Issues



Hi Nathan,
Thank you for being gentle with the post!
The problem occuring was that SPA had been ticked in the POP3 connector
which my ISP does not support. So hence mail was outgoing but not incomming
as it could not authenticate.

Thank you again for your assistance no doubt we may be talking again soon.

Cheers

Dave
