Ok...the POP3 connector is not designed to work in the scenario you have
The purpose of the POP3 connector is when your ISP (or webhost) is collecting mail under your domain name...not theirs.
So mail destined for user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx goes to the ISP and is held there, then your SBS POP3 Connector goes out every 15 minutes and connects to those mailboxes and pulls the mail down to the Exchange Server and into Outlook

Then when you send mail out, it goes out as user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and when someone replies it goes to the ISP until the POP3 connector collects it again.

In the case like this...each user should have their copy of outlook configured to go out and collect the mail for their account

Hi evrybody

I have a little question about the POP3 Connecteur.
I configure a SBS Std R2 for a client this week.
I use the POP3 connecteur for the mail, cause my client doesn't have a
domain name for the mail, he use the domain of the FAI ( like @yahoo.com for
exemple)
So, in sbs i create a user (myuser), so the mail of my user is
myuser@xxxxxxxxxxxx and i create configure the pop connecteur to send check
the mail like mister.user@xxxxxxx to myuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx It works very
well.
But now, when my user send mail, there contact receive a mail from
myuser@xxxxxxxx there a mix with the name of the user in AD with the doamin
of the FAI.
When i reply, the mail doesn't work cause the mail adress doesn't exist in
the FAI.
What can i do to correct this probleme and have the good adress when he send
mail??

(Sorry my english was not good. I will thanks Lanwench for his help for the
RPC configuration)

-- best regard
