Hi Susan,

Who else to answer SBS questions? *grin*

Yeah I know it's wise to drop the pop connector setup, but besides
that I don't like their "technical" explanation for troubleshooting
their install of BES...

I'm now troubleshooting it myself and already found out that they
don't have configured TCP 3101 on their firewall... So now the guy is
on the line with his ISP to have his firewall updated and I'm looking
for the error message he has.

And that's my case, I don't like people that tell strange "technical"
things that seem kinda strange to me. In that case I want to know
every little detail so I understand it and if correct, no objection to
do so. Call me "annoying" ;-)

Thanks
Bart

In general it's wise to get off of the popconnector anyway.... IMF has
no ability to filter spam in a pop connector setup.

Popconnector will also not route bcc'd email... so in general it's wise
to move off of pop.
