Though we were initially excited about the POPB4UDrop feature, I've
since had a change of heart. We've had a lot of trouble with that
feature to the point where we're going to disable it. The only problem
is that we have several large accounts who are using the feature and
need to be migrated to SMTP Auth.

FYI, the problems we are having involve Klez, NAT and various other
unusual circumstances that make troubleshooting problems impossible. On
the customers' end, they experience intermittent problems sending mail.
We could increase the timeout to assuage the latter, but the feature
itself has been so problematic that we are probably just going to drop
it altogether.

Don't get me wrong, the problems with POPB4UDrop are inherent to the
concept, not the implementation. I can see how the feature would be
useful for some people, but it simply won't work for us. It may not work
for you either.

Subject: [VOPmail Beta] 501 unable to relay


I am constantly getting 501 errors and I am getting frustrated. These
are all local clients on the primary domain. I increased the timeout for
pop-before-drop to 90 minutes and STILL seems to creep in almost
randomly - rarely the same client over extended time. What am I
missing!!! The IP pool is always within my pool and the users(senders)
are all primary users!
