Users May Not Receive Messages from Connector for POP3 Mailboxes (303741)

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Small Business Server 2000

This article was previously published under Q303741

SYMPTOMS

When the Connector for POP3 Mailboxes downloads e-mail messages from an Internet Service Provider (ISP), all messages are downloaded, but some of the messages may not be delivered to the recipients. The senders may not receive any non-delivery reports, and the server may not log any errors in Event logs. Instead, the messages just disappear. Other recipients on the server may receive messages without any problems, and the user who is not receiving messages may vary each time the messages are retrieved.

CAUSE

This behavior may occur if the Connector for POP3 Mailboxes has 15 or more mailboxes configured.
