The server console says that POP3 has started. I configure my POP3 client but I cannot get connected. My user name in the Address Book is Aaron Benage and I have a mail file setup in \mail\abenage.nsf. What mailbox should I configure my mail client to look at? The server is configured as mibankswo2.mitest.com/M&I. I can connect to the server with Notes. TCP/IP connection. Would it be abenage@mibanksw02.mitest.com? Do I have to throw that "/M&I" in there somewhere?
 
If you would like to read your Notes mail from a POP3 mail client, such as OutLook or Eudora, all you have to do now is (assuming your POP3 server task already runs on the Domino server) to create a mail account in the POP3 mail client and place your server name in the Incoming Mail (POP3) server field and place your username (in your case would be &quot;abenage&quot; or &quot;Aaron_Benage&quot; as Account Name and place your password.<br>
<br>
Your server name would be as it is registered in the network, if your Domino server is &quot;mibankswo2.mitest.com/M&I&quot;, you use a server &quot;mibankswo2&quot; in &quot;mitest.com&quot; network domain, so just use &quot;mibankswo2.mitest.com&quot;. the &quot;M&I&quot; is Domino Domain or Organization name which is unknown to non-Notes Client.<br>
<br>
If it is an R5 Domino server and you would like to read via WebMail, just type &quot;mibankswo2.mitest.com/mail/abenage.nsf&quot; in your browser's URL.
 
What suggestions do you have as to why this would not come up in a web page? I have tried this and it doesnt work. I use a passthrough server Etxtendnet 4000 to send and deliver mail to the internet that registers the domain name but the DNS service is provided by a thrid party is this where it could be going wrong?
