Are you sure it's an outlook issue and not just a general networking issue?
Can those machines telnet to the mail server over port 110 using the same hostname as specified in the pop3 server settings of outlook? use these commands: TELNET hostname.com 110 USER username PASS password STAT QUIT that should log you in to the pop server, then show you the numger of messages and total byte count for that user. -Seth -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of William Denniss Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 4:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] Re: POP3 Authentication error for Outlook 2000 1) - I try both full email and just username, neither works. the username only works fine in OL XP and Kmail... 2) This check is not enabled. 3) I agree. but alas you have to give the people what they want.. :( The exact error message is: "There was a problem logging onto your mail server.
