You don't. There is no such thing as a "record" for POP3 or SMTP. The POP3/SMTP Client connects to the mail server by IP# or by FQDN. Do you realize what POP3 is going to do to their mail boxes the first time the user ever successfully does this? -- Phillip Windell www.wandtv.com The views expressed, are my own and not those of my employer, or Microsoft, or anyone else associated with me, including my cats. -----------------------------------------------------

Re: POP3 and SMTP Records "George I." <yorgy_i[ at ]hotmail.com> 10/2/2008 8:57:06 PM So, if I understand you correctly. Once I create the HOST Record and MX Record pointing to my Exchange Server in DNS as well as my information in Exchange SMTP Connector and Virtual Server, I am all set?

No. No. I said: You don't [create anything]. There is no such thing as a "record" for POP3 or SMTP. Then I said: The POP3/SMTP Client connects to the mail server by IP# or by FQDN.
