Have you given access rights to the Domain User/s for the POP3/SMTP Rule on ISA?

note that users cant ping the mail server

if your users cant ping your mail server and recieve reply, then that is your Problem. Outlook does not have enough information on how to reach your Mail server. to Fix This Problem, Go to Your Network adapter Settings where you enter the IP Address, subnet Mask, Gateway etc. Now make sure the Gateway address is correct and You Must enter at least on DNS server IP address. MSOUTOOK will not work if you dont put a DNS Server address niether will you be able to ping Niether your Mail server, Nor Google, Nor Yahoo
