Author POP3 Account Passwords Expire

Hello All:

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but here goes. I have the POP3
service running on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition machine.
Everything workds fine, but it seems that about once a month the passwords
for the mail accounts I've set up expire.

Is there a way to specify that POP3 account passwords don't expire?

What type of authentication are you using? If you are using Windows accounts
(local or domain), then you can specify that passwords should not expire in
the properties of the user account in question (or via Group Policy Object
as well in a domain environment).

Cheers
Ken
