I'm running SBS 2003 - and we're using Exchange with the POP3 manager -- I'm
running into a problem that one of my remote users, using an AT&T Business
account, is not reciveing mail from the office ... he's getting mail from all
of the other vendors/suppliers/etc.  I want to make sure that there's nothing
in exchange that's killing the mail.  Please provide me with specific
where-to-look type things, as the Exchange server is a bit wonky to begin
with ....

Thank you!!!

Outbound mail isn't affected by the fact that you're using a POP connector
(although I strongly discourage this & you ought to think about hosting your
own mail). Are you sending out mail directly, or forwarding Internet mail to
your ISP's SMTP server as a smarthost? Do you get NDRs when trying to send
mail to him? If you look in the queues, what do you see regarding mail to
his domain?

When you say the server is wonky, what do you mean? Might want to post
details in microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs for help with that.
