Re: POP Server's Not working?

Nope, just SBC (current and legacy) accounts. My yahoo IM is pilot_63302 if that helps. I'll do my best. I'm just happy I got VPN running when all others (including the VLAN guys) couldn't.

Are you/were you polling any other POP accounts besides SBC accounts? And if so, were you getting the popup box for you other accounts? Thanks.

Well, I only moved over to Outlook 2k3 about a month ago, but have had SBC forever. Never really had any problems till I went to 2k3, as Outlook 2k was fine for me. But the long answer is yes. That's the KB I was referring to and it's been working for me. Like I said. Up till a month ago was on 2k, and put a new server into place (SBS2k3 with all of the goodies) and started having the problem. Fixed it for me.

Is this the Microsoft KB article you are referring to ? »support.microsoft.com/?id=290684

I saw this, but am hesitant to try this because I still think it's an SBC/Y! problem. Outlook polls 16 of my POP e-mail addresses every 5 minutes. I have 7 SBC/nvbell.net addresses, 4 GMail accounts, 3 Worldnet accounts and 2 e-mail accounts from my business domain - and the Outlook popup ALWAYS gets stuck on SBC POP server.

I have a friend that has 2 sbcglobal e-mail accounts, and is also running Outlook 2003, and it happens to her too.

This started about 2 months ago - so did SBC/Y! make a change about that time?
