POP3 Virtual Server not working

[ctjohnson]

Hi-
I configured exchange out of the box, and everything seems to be working with the exception of the pop 3 virtual server. Users can use OWA, as well as outlook, but when using a pop3 client, you get the error message:

"There was a problem logging on to your mail server. Your password was rejected. Account "Test Email Account" Server "server.eths.com" ERR Unknown username or bad password, Port 110, SecureSSL, No, Server.

Any ideas? I just started the default pop3 server....

Thanks

I think, if memory serves me right that this is an authentification issue, check the level of authentification for your client (Outlook express for example) and the level within the virtual server. Sorry this is not all that clear but its been some time since my E2k course and we do not use pop3, Hope this helps though.

thanks for the help....the authentication is configured to use "Basic"

I've also tried integrated windows....

thanks dan, it ended up being a change on the smtp virtual server that the MS guy walked me through.
