POP3 email no longer being forwarded to client

Previously logged under connectivity but no reply

I am running SBS2000 (latest service packs) with a small number of users.
My users are on WinXP (SP1) using Office XP (latest SPs).
Users have either a unique email address ([email protected]) or a
Btopenworld.com email address.
Administrator has a (e-mail address removed) email address
Everything has been working fine until just recently when all the
BTopenworld accounts have stopped forwarding email to the clients. They can
still send successfully. The Unique email clients are working fine. I can
view email via the web until the server does it's send/receive
Can someone tell me where I can find any error messages which might explain
the problem. I've tried event viewer but thats clear. Or how to restart the
correct distribution.
This might be related (but might not be). I have to explicit specify any
outgoing BTopenworld email addresses within Exchange to stop them being
bounced on the way out by my server as unknown within my domain.
Also, the missing email must be within the server somewhere - can I get at
it ?

Yes, I replied in there just today - you're in the wrong place here too. Try
posting SBS questions in SBS groups. The POP connector is not part of
Exchange - nor part of Outlook. Outlook has even less to do with this than
Exchange itself does. ;-)

Post in microsoft.public.backoffice.smallbiz2000 for help with this issue.
 
Hi - thanks for the info - one of the things that I've logged with Microsoft
before is the lack of a "glossary" when you're trying to logged a problem or
use the knowledge base to find a solution.
In my case I'm running SBS2000 but the POP3 connector info is in the
Exchange tree. My previous problem with email (POP3) was solved via the
exchange systems manager therefore why shouldn't I think that this isn't an
exchange problem as well
Exchange is part of SBS2000 isn't it ? and controls email ?
However I will repost under SBS2000
Thanks for your response

Well - it isn't really a MS thing. This industry is full of jargon, and
there's a lot of stuff to name.

Because the POP connector is part of SBS, not Exchange.

Yes. But not via a POP connector. That's an SBS thing alone.

Good luck!
