Topic: Multiple email accounts-newbie

[Jeff]

I am trying to figure out how to check multiple pop accounts without hosting them.   ex.   joe@xxxx.com   joe2@xxxx.com  etc.   I want to set each user with their specific pop account to check the external pop server and deliver them to their mail box to be read when needed.   I have 5.0 set up using dial up.  I would like it to dial periodically throughout the day to pull down these messages and distribute.   I would also like then to have several users share the same account.

Any help would be appreciated.  I have read endless items and being new to this has been exciting to learn.
Thanks.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the advice.  I will give this a shot.  Is it as simple to install as it says??  It also says this is for a 4.x server, will this work on 5.x?
Thanks again!

Hi Jeff,

Yes, I am currently using it on SME 5. I think mine is 1 or 2 versions behind the current one but should not be significantly different.

Cheers !
