Is the alias of the mailbox the same as the NT userid? I seem to remember in Exchange 5.5 having problems with POP3 if the alias and NTuserid were not the same, in which case you had to use the username something like NT domain\ntuserid\mailbox alias so it was always simpler to just make sure the alias and ntuserid matched. If that does not work you could try a manual telnet to POP3 port, 110, and use the following commands: user ntuserid/alias pass password of mailbox list (this will list all the messages in the inbox, with the size in kb)
This would be more helpful in finding out where things are going wrong.

I reactivated my account via their webpages and all was fine. Does the ISP have webmail access - if so try this and ensure the account is active, and the password hasn't been changed Chris Quinn IT Manager Blue Planet Aquarium -----Original Message----- From: Crumbaker, Ron [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 01 August 2002 14:59 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: POP3 and exchange 2k I'm having a problem getting mail from my E2k box using POP3.
