Re: EMail/Security problem...

Thanks Jacky,

"jilldecoursey\j.decoursey" is the userid, the other will be
"haldecoursey\mrhal88" (or something close).

Because they are pop3 users with email addresses different from user names,
I need that strange looking username (they are setup as domain\user id\email
address).

I've sent a larger security log, Jill doesn't have her email setup to auto
check, Hal does.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks for posting back.

I have took a look on your security log,I just see the failure one time as
follows.

Logon Failure:

Reason:Unknown user name or bad password

User Name:jilldecoursey\j.decoursey



So I cannot make sure whether it is caused by the POP3 user.Is
jilldecoursey\j.decoursey problematic user?

Please send me the latest security log again,and tell me the name of the
two problematic users and the test account.

Please also let me know what the exact error message have you seen. Why
does the security log have just logon failure one time?

send latest security log again to me at v-jaluo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx


Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Jacky Luo (MSFT)
