how to pop server and exchange5.5

by ychang5501 . Updated 25 years, 2 months ago

I’d like to set up a pop server, that remote users can get their email from, only thing is we already have Exchange5.5 on the lan. The remote users are currently using Outlook 2000 to connect to the exchange5.5 but are complaining that it’s very slow and that at their old job they used pop servers for their email, which seemed much faster for them.

What I’d like to do is set up a pop server on NT4ws if possible, and have the Exchange box forward all email for remote users to the pop server. One of my concerns is that of security. How secure could I make the pop server. My though was if isp’s or large corporations have pop servers, they must be able to secure them fairly tight or they wouldn’t do it. My other concern is that of hardware. What would I need to set something like this up?

Any and all thoughts/opinions/links would be appreciated.
