POP3 Authentication Some Users Fail   
I have an SBS 2003 Server I am setting up POP3 Port 110 Access for users.  
Some users can authenticate some can't.  It's possible that the one's that 
can't were originally setup with different user names.  Newly created users 
can get in fine.

If I telnet to Port 110, I can login as any new user I create, the 
administrator, but not an older existing user.  That older user can log into 
the server, and I can log in as them to OWA.

I've tried to Change user Permissions, add the user to Mobile User and 
Remote Web Workplace groups, change users password, start and stop POP3 
service.  Hide from Exchange Address Lists is turned off at the user level.  
POP3 is Enabled, using protocol defaults, as is everything else on the 
Exchange Features Tab of the User.

It would seem that deleting the user and recreating them would work, but 
that of course would break other stuff, most of which I'm unaware of <smile>. 
  Any ideas on what I should try?   Thanks for the thoughts!

RE: POP3 Authentication Some Users Fail   
More Info:
Interestingly if I setup my Outgoing SMTP Server to require authentication, 
using the same settings as my incoming mail server, the SMTP authentication 
succeeds, and the test message is accepted / delivered.  

Thanks again,
Dan

RE: POP3 Authentication Some Users Fail   
Solved: I changed the username to the format 
DOMAIN\username\mailboxalias and it works.   If there's a better fix please 
let me know.

Thanks,
Dan

Re: POP3 Authentication Some Users Fail   
You need to log on with DOMAIN\ACCOUNT\ALIAS if the mailbox alias is not the 
same as the domain account name.
