Hello,
I recently setup a server running server 2003. I had to use the dyndns updater for my dynamic ip. I got the web and ftp portions working just fine but now I’m stuck at the pop3 part. I used this tutorial http://www.ilopia.com/Articles/Wind... to set it up and it didn’t work.
I did a little digging and found that comcast blocks port 25. I then purchased mailhop service from dyndns http://www.dyndns.com/services/mail... and for the life of me can’t figure out how to get anything working. I am using outlook express to try to connect.

By checking out the tutorial mentioned above you can see what my settings are. To be honest at this point I have no idea what any of my settings in outlook should be. I also have no idea if I need to do anything with this whole mailhop thing.

I created an exception to my firewall for port 10025.

Please help me figure out how to set this whole thing up.


Thank you so much,
-Rob

For the last few days I've been trying different settings. I have come across a few site that mention an MX Exchange... I think that's what it's called. Do I need to set one up along with the mailhop service?
