POP3


Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) is similar to but less sophisticated than IMAP that can access and receive email on an Internet server. It can be thought of as a "store and forward" service, because it does not typically leave a copy of an email on the server after downloading it. Many Exchange Server administrators need to know how to authenticate POP3 users, migrate POP3 accounts, or just generally support POP3 email in Microsoft Outlook clients. These POP3 tips and tutorials offer a plethora of advice on managing and troubleshooting POP3 email in a Microsoft Exchange Server environment.
