how to let exchange user access POP3 Accounts
Dear All,
i have here my internal Network, its one domian internal and 50 users.
Our mail server its hosted out side, in our ISP, and we are using POP3
accounts to connect to it and bring the E-mail back
due to that, all the users need to connect to the Internet in Order to
download the E-mails from out side.
and for that, we become bigger and we increased to 500 users. so can you
imagine now, how we are facing ?
its really a big Problem, if i want to send an E-mail to my collegue, i have
to let my PC Connect to internet through ISA server, in order to be able to
send an E-mail to my frined, who is set beside me, and also he should have
the same situation able to connected to internet, in order to access his
E-mail.
so we have a delay in Our Internet.
so i think on deploy an internal mail server, so all the user will connect
directly to it, and without need to have internet at all.
and we keep the internet for browsing.
but, we do not want to use exchange server .
we decide to use POP3 Server which has been added in Win2003.
we connect to it, and we bocome able completely to send to each other
internally wihtout being able to connect to internet, and very fast.
but we are unable to receive e-mails from outside.
so if some one call from company outside, and inform us, he send an E-mail
to some one, so he needs only to login to the mail2web and access it from out
side. but internally he cant at all, because there is no any way to take the
E-mails from outside and put inside the users mailbox, unless we have
internal mail server like excchange.
so i tried to use any POP3 downloader,like GFI or somehting, but i found
that it cant work with the POP3 server, its only designed to work with the
exchange server , to let the user connect or see there POP3 Accounts through
the exchange server him self.
so is there any way or product, should i use it, in order to be able to
receive the E-mails from outside, by using POP3 Server, because, i do not
want to use exchange server .
