pop3   

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 .

Why not? I'd think centralized storage and collaboration/sharing would 
become even *more* important as your company grows larger.

OK - then you're in the wrong newsgroup. This is a group for Exchange 
server.

Again, I'd have to ask why not, but also again, if you don't want to use 
Exchange, post in a group for Win2003 instead, because this isn't an 
Exchange issue you're asking about.
