Hello Customer,
Thank you for posting here.
According to your description, I understand that you unable pull email from
external POP3 server to SBS thru Outlook Express. If I have misunderstood
the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.
Based on my research, I suggest we try the following steps to see if we can
resolve this issue:
Step 1: Ensure you configure the Outlook Express properly
You can configure Microsoft Outlook Express on the Windows Small Business
Server-based computer to retrieve e-mail messages. If you cannot use
Outlook Express to retrieve e-mail messages, you will not be able to use
the POP3 Connector to retrieve those e-mail messages. To configure Outlook
Express, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, point to All Programs, and then click Outlook Express.
2. If this is the first time that you have started Outlook Express and if
the Outlook Express Internet Connection Wizard starts, go to step 5.
3. On the Tools menu, click Accounts, and then click the Mail tab.
4. Click Add, and then click Mail.
5. In the Display name box, type your name in the format that you want
your e-mail recipients to see, and then click Next.
6. In the E-mail address box, type your e-mail alias, and then click Next.
7. Leave the POP3 selection in the My incoming mail server is a list, and
then type the remote POP3 server's fully qualified domain name in the
Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server box. For example, type
pop.fabrikam.com .
8. In the Outgoing mail (SMTP) server box, type the fully qualified domain
name of your Windows Small Business Server-based computer. For example,
type mail.contoso.local .
9. Click Next, type your POP3 e-mail account name in the Account name box,
type the password that you use to access the remote POP3 server in the
Password box, click Next, and then click Finish.
10. Click the account that you just created, and then click Properties.
11. Click the Advanced tab, click to select the Leave a copy of messages
on server check box, and then click OK.
12. Click Close to quit the Internet Accounts dialog box.
13. On the Tools menu, point to Send and Receive, and then click the POP3
e-mail account that you just created.
Step 2: If you still unable to pull email from POP3 server, that means this
is mostly a external POP3 server issue. Please contact the POP3 server
support for further help. If you can success pull email from the POP3
server, please continue the troubleshooting steps in the following KB:

I hope these steps will give you some help.
Thanks and have a nice day!
