Post subject: SMTP/POP3 servers
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>inetserver>iis (more info?)

I am sorta' lost. First, I am using IIS6.0 (Win2K3 SP1 machine) and the web
sites use host headers. I have set up a virtual (not the default) SMTP
server and POP3 server on my Win2K3 SP1 machine. I can use an ISP email
client and send an email to my server. It arrives in the Queue folder just
fine, but never gets delivered. Since I created a virtual SMTP server, I was
expecting the Badmail, Drop, Pickup, and Queue folders to be on
DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername folder (there were no Mailbox, Route,
SortTemp folders) ... well, they were there - less the other ones. But, when
I created POP3 server, these same folders (along with some other folders:
Mailbox, Route, SortTemp) were created on the C:\Inetpub\mailroot folder and
the Mailbox folder on the C-drive contained the usernamer.mbx file. Thus,
when an incoming email arrived, it went to the
DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername\Queue folder and just sat there and was
never delivered. It would never appear in the Drop folder on this drive and
in the MS Outlook Express 6 inbox. Why does the POP3 server place the
Badmail, Drop, Pickup, Queue, etc folders on C:\Inetpubmailroot drive and not
on the DifferentDriveLetter:\foldername (where the virtual SMTP server
created it's folders/files)? Can anyone help me????? What am I doing
wrong?????
