RE: James Usability Ques.

Are you using NAT? (ie your internal IP address is different to your routers
public address?)  if so, the reason is that the address pop.mydomain.com is
pointing to your external IP, not your internal IP, and most routers wont
forward requests from inside your network to your external ip.  ie,
pop.mydomain.com points to the router, not your machine, but for external
requests the router forwards pop/smtp ports to the servers IP.

Obviously i dont know your network setup or the router you're using, but all
the routers i have used act in this manner.

Hi Folks,
Is JAMES usable with dynamic dns?
I am using www.no-ip.com to serve up a new dynamic ip for my router. This
works fine for publishing web sites against the IP from the ipconfig command
and synchronizes the dynamic changes seamlessly of IP to DNS.
The JAMES autodiscover, according to the logs, seems to sniff out the IP for
dns rather seamlessly.
Is ther any reason why my IP conection would terminate with the following
when running outlook?
The TCP/IP connection was unxpectedly terminated by the server. (Account:
'pop.mydomain.com'; SMTP Server, 'mail.mydomain.com', error number
0x800ccc0f).
