I am using Microsoft Proxy server 2.0 to share internet access over the network. I am unable to access my POP3 server on the internet on the clients to receive mail. I do NOT have Exchange server. Any help on how to do this will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I do not like using a proxy but it is more often impose as it is said to centralize Internet access control.
The app. should allow you to create the port 110 (if that's used) as a pass-through port, so you do not use the proxy for e-mail popping.
Look rather to secure your LAN by use of a Firewall app. in a stealth configuration whilst allowing all Internet connections to initiate tcp sessions. Apply combined IP and port blocking. W2K can allow you this.
