I’m having some issues getting SMTP2POP3 working how I want it. Maybe someone can assist. I tried a check sending an email from my mail server to gmail in operating mode SMTP + POP3. Works, but the problem we just found was we had an issue related to the mail leaving our facility. I had alerts set on 2 failures and was never alerted because the send always succeeded, even though the POP3 check kept failing…. But if I set it to alert on 1 failure in this same scenario I would just keep getting up and down notices over and over again as the SMTP check was succeeding. Is that accurate and if so is there a way to solve that?
I also tried setting it up as 2 checks, one dependent on the first. Check one SMTP and check 2 POP3, with the idea that now I’m only alerted when POP3 fails, and it’ll stay down until it finally gets the email. Problem is the 2nd check keeps failing saying “messages received but not send by correct application”, but the only emails in the mailbox were SMTP2POP3 emails. Any way to resolve that? Thanks!

Doing so will cause you to be automatically removed from the list.
