On our Exchange Server,all users that are remote, cannot get e-mail through their Outlook as before. All e-mail is accessable internally and through the browser, but will not POP. All protocals and clients look to be intack.

Help!

You shouldn't be using POP3 for Outlook to communicate with Exchange, even for remote access.
The two supported methods that work reliably are to either use Outlook Web Access where the remote users connect to an IIS box that then serves up theire-mail, or establish a remote session through RAS or a VPN connection and then connect to Exchange through Outlook just as you would on the internal network.

When you say "as before" - do you mean before they were remote?
