RE: Exchange 5.5 - Configure for Broad Band Cable Modem
If the corporate server is POP/SMTP, then have them setup alias/forwarding to the Exchange box.

This is my first posting, so please excuse the length of message. We have been using NT Small Business Server 4.5 with Exchange 5.5 and the POP3 extensions for more than a year with excellent results. Dial-Up Modem / ISDN recently Cable Modem to our corporate mail server have all worked. Our local office user base has increased and we have moved to a brand new installation of Windows 2000 and the full product Exchange 5.5 (SP4). We have setup an Internet Mail Service, but with a cable modem scenario we oviously don't have a dial-up connection to configure... and in SBS the POP3 extension handled this area quite happily. We can Send e-Mails to external addresses and internal addresses. However, we just cannot get Exchange to poll the Corporate server to collect inbound Mail for us. In simplified terms for a non-Exchange person - What information should we ask our mail-server colleagues for; how where should we then configure this and in practical terms have we missed something obvious? If you think Exchange 2000 is a better option for a clean install we are ready to move and work with that product... I just cannot seem to find simplified step-by-step instructions for either Exchange 5.5 or 2000. Any help and/or advice will be greatly appreciated.

RE: Exchange 5.5 - Configure for Broad Band Cable Modem
The full version of exchange doesn't work with the SBS POP3 connector. I am assuming that you are still trying to use it to connect to a Pop3 mailbox at your ISP, then take the mail down to the exchange server? The only way to setup mail now is the old fashion way with a static external Ip address and a registered DNS name. Unless there are 3rd party Pop3 connectors that will work with full Exchange out there. -Original Message- From: John Armstrong [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 11:06 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 5.5 - Configure for Broad Band Cable Modem Hello Exchange List...

RE: Exchange 5.5 - Configure for Broad Band Cable Modem
There are other ways to do this rather than use a POP3. I have used POP3 Gateway (http://www.jak.com) for years without any problems. If you look on the Exchange FAQ from http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm you will see info on ETRN which is a no-cost solution for what you're trying to do.
