Re: Test-POPConnectivity   

I get the same error when I use my account; but am able to test using
other accounts. Try this;


1.Run Test-POPConnectivity
2. You will prob get error saying that test CAS user does not exist
and that run the newtestcasconnectivityuser.ps1. Run this
3. Then run test-popconnectivity again it will use this account.
4. Then try running the whole command below again using the test cas
user it created.

Test-POPConnectivity -ClientAccessServer <serverName> -
MailboxCredential
(get-credential <domain\username>) -ConnectionType:PlainText
