Re: POP3 E-mail Issue After Swing Migration

Hi Dave,

Using ISA logging, I can see that POP3 is being denied to all users except
the POP3 connector! Now, how in the heck do I fix this?! All users are
members of the Internet Users Group.

Cheers,
Bill

I've never tried this, but I would think the users would have to be in the
Internet Users security group for this to work. What you can do is remote
into the SBS from a desktop. Open ISA and click Monitoring. On Tasks,
click Start Query. Flip back to the desktop and initiate a POP
connection. After it fails, flip back to SBS/ISA. Stop the query and
scroll through until you find what blocked it (probably easiest to look
for the desktop's IP).

Why are you doing POP this way instead of using the SBS POP connector? I
can give you a long list of reasons why, if you can't do regular SMTP, you
should use the POP connector instead. One of them is that it avoids the
issue you're having now, but also centralized configuration, monitoring,
troubleshooting, backup, virus scanning.....

Yes, the ISA firewall client is installed. What about security groups.
Do users need to be members of Internet Users?

ISA doesn't block this. Got the ISA firewall clients on the
workstations?

more. Message in Outlook indicates that the POP3 server cannot be
reached. How can I fix this please? I am assuming that ISA is
blocking but I am not exactly conversant with it. Can someone please
set me straight and point me at a how-to for this?
