Don't know what products you have used but my experience with POP3Gateway from JAK has been much different. There are some drawbacks, but blanket BCC is not one of them. The only issue I have ever had, and still have is a message delivered BCC to a DL, will end up as a NDR. However, I was able to overcome that by setting up a remap file that says if the recipient in the TO or CC field, remap the mail to person [EMAIL PROTECTED] If that rule fails, all NDR's (very few) are delivered to one person in the organization who will forward or delete (mostly sales BS). Bottom line - not all POP3 connectors are crap. It depends on the situation and the requirements. Just as some companies can afford to purchase Backup Exec w/the Exchange agent, other companies use NT Backup made Exchange aware - it just depends on the company.

It doesn't hold the functionality that SMTP delivered mail does. In most environments, confidential email arriving BCC to the CEO should actually go to the CEO. How does your POP connector handle that? POP connectors don't operate well with many listservers, causing mail loops. POP connectors are crap.

My ISP (major brand) is currently making changes to support it. In several offices for the last 3 years, I have successfully deployed a POP3 connector from JAK with very few problems. It allows for mailboxes from several different ISP's to be retrieved without user involvement. It depends on your environment and requirements.

POP3 connectors don't even work.
