Incoming mail not being delivered?
|
|
|
| All incoming mail is being directed to the 'Drop' folder and not delivered to the recipient, I can send out email ok but when I reply or send, it's only getting as far as the 'Drop' folder.
Does anyone know why this might happen and what I can do to overcome it?
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Wayne

| I didn't have logging switched on but I've just enabled it on both the POP3 and SMTP Services, I sent a test email from the pop3 account to my hotmail account, and then replied to that email, which usually would arrive in the pop3 email box but thats not happenign at the moment. I checked the log files and all it is showing is the following:

This means little if nothing to me and I'm not sure it demonstrtes where the problem is, but if it does mean anything to you, I would be grateful for a little interpretation.
Many thanks

Well, since I'm not looking for a solution, I guess the answer is no.
I did ask two questions, though the reply didn't answer my questions
(not the poste'sr fault, just the information wasn't there...)
I suspect there is a POP3 configuration problem. I did see something
like this a few years ago when the IIS POP3 was first released. I
recall it had to do with the drop folder location being changed but
POP didn't realize the change had taken place (and continued to look
in the old location.) But that was long ago, and my memory isn't that
good on this problem.
