RE: Issues combining the usual email domain with POP
Thank you Steve, You are *right-on* with your statement the client is obviously not letting exchange know that the emails have been already downloaded. This is exactly the unwanted behavior we are attempted to resolve. Last night we creating a separate Outlook profile using the POP account as a default, leaving the Exchange email account out of the picture. Again we watched 12000+ (1.8GB) emails resolve to a PST file. We reverted back to the original profile having [EMAIL PROTECTED] (POP), alongside [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Exchange default) . The Inbox was emptied (weird)...the 20 (new) emails that arrived this morning continue showing in Outlook Status Receiving messages 3 of 20 (5 MB of 32 MB)Send/Receive Complete. Pressing F5 (forcing Outlook to Send/Receive) repeats and continues to download DUPLICATES of the POP emails only. This behavior is unique to this one user...as it doesn't happen with the other 4-5 users in the department. Cheers. Any suggestion are SO welcomed. -J From: Steve Moffat on behalf of NTSysAdmin Sent: Thu 10/16/2008 5:21 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Issues combining the usual email domain with POP erm..no.

For e.g., we have some of the same users doing business overseas using a different domain ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) pointing to the same Exchange server...albeit the Outlook client is configured using POP...again alongside Exchange. We now have an interesting phenomenon where the POP is downloading 12,000+ messages in over 1.89GB, again and again. The POP configuration is NOT set to Leave a copy of messages on the server Does anyone know where these POP emails reside...that we might manually delete them? What are we painfully overlooking??
