Hi there,

SBS 2003, All of a sudden, I have error alerts on the server regarding pop
mails

The messages fall into 3 category and look likes as following

1. Access was denied to the mailbox <pop.xxxxx.com) logging on as
a**@xxxxx.com Verify the password for the mailbox account, and try again.

2. An error occured during a POP3 transcation to server <pop.xxxxx.com
[***@xxxxx.com]>. The error is 0 [The operation completed sucessfully.]

pop.xxxxx.com is the mail server. It appear that only a few user has this
problem. and password has not been changed.

Any thought ?

Do you mean the POP connector? If so, note that this is not part of
Exchange, it's part of SBS (and is decidely not recommended). If you need
help with it, try posting in microsoft.public.windows.server.sbs - but it
would be better to avoid it and host your own mail.

Hi,

so much of them. I shall post this to the sbs forum. Thank you for the
direction.
