Guest susan Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Dear all, I have a problem with mail exchage. I have an user account who have two mail boxs. one mail box is using exchange and another one is using POP3. The problem is the mailbox that using POP3 can not delivery mail to outside but can only delivery in the local. And it used to work normally before. I don't know what is wrong. So, anyone could you please help me with this? I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks in advance, Susan

Hi - this isn't the best group for your question - it's a general Windows server group. Your problem really concerns Outlook, even though you are also using Exchange. If you're going to post in an Exchange group, it's important that you include your version & SP levels of everything. In fact, do that whenever you post in a server group in general. For Outlook questions, try posting in microsoft.public.outlook. > I have an user account who have > two mail boxs. one mail box is using exchange and another one is using > POP3. Note that this is not a good configuration - don't mix and match account types this way, or you will always run into problems with mail delivery/routing. You really should have Exchange handling all your users' mail, both internal and external. It defeats the purpose of a centralized mail server to use Internet mail in outlook this way. > > The problem is the mailbox that using POP3 can not delivery mail to > outside but can only delivery in the local.

I think I just know about microsoft.public.outlook. I'm sorry, I won't put it in the wrong place again. Thanks, Susan
