ID: Q171032
|
The information in this article applies to:
-
Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.0
SUMMARY
When using Microsoft Exchange Server version 5.0 Post Office Protocol
(POP3) protocol you can allow any POP e-mail client to connect to an
Exchange Server computer and read messages from an Exchange Server Inbox.
The POP3 protocol is designed to work in conjunction with the Internet Mail
Service to support both sending and receiving mail.
If mail from a POP3 client is to be routed to recipients outside the
Microsoft Exchange Server organization, you must configure the Internet
Mail Service to reroute mail.
MORE INFORMATION
Use the following procedure to configure the Internet Mail Service for POP3
clients.
NOTE: If the Internet Mail Service was not configured to reroute incoming
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail, you may receive a non-delivery
report (NDR) for any messages submitted by POP3 clients to recipients
outside the organization. To resolve the problem, configure the Internet
Mail Service, and re-send the messages.
- In the Exchange Server Administrator window, double-click the Internet
Mail Service you want to configure.
- Click the Routing tab.
- Select Reroute Incoming SMTP Mail (required for POP3 support).
- Click Add.
- Type the SMTP domain name of your organization, and select
the Should Be Accepted As [ASCII 147]Inbound[ASCII 148] option.
- Click OK.
- Stop and restart the Internet Mail Service.
