Thanks everyone who tried to help me to parse incoming email from an exchange 
server:

Now, I am getting following error; I am not sure where I am doing wrong. I appreciate any help how to resolve this error and extract emails from an exchange server.

First I tried:
mailserver = 'EXCHVS01.my.org'
mailuser = 'myname'
mailpasswd = 'mypass'
mailserver = poplib.POP3(mailserver)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python24\lib\poplib.py", line 96, in __init__
    raise socket.error, msg
error: (10061, 'Connection refused')



The other way:

mailserver = 'pop.EXCHVS01.ad.my.org'
mailuser = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
mailpasswd = 'mypass'
mailserver = poplib.POP3(mailserver)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python24\lib\poplib.py", line 84, in __init__
    for res in socket.getaddrinfo(self.host, self.port, 0, socket.SOCK_STREAM):
gaierror: (11001, 'getaddrinfo failed')
Haven't used poplib myself, but was intrigued.

Did you see this:
http://www.python.org/doc/lib/pop3-example.html

To me it looks like you are not setting the user/password.

So, maybe something like:

M = poplib.POP3(mailserver)
M.user(mailuser)
M.pass_(mailpasswd)
....
