in thread Net::POP3

from the commmand line on the FTP server type

telnet exchange_server_IP 110

you should get a POP3 prompt if all is working well.

    Ah, thanks for the heads up.

    All is not well...

    E:\SyscoBin\PerlScripts>telnet 10.240.81.76 110 Connecting To 10.240.81.76...Could not open a connection to host on port 110 : Connect failed

    Fixable?

      sounds like you need to open up port 110 in your firewall.

        Opening port 110 on the Exchange server isn't something I can do.

        So.

        Anyone got advice about another approach I can use to accomplish the goal? (grab inbox contents off Exchange from a remote host)

        I appreciate it!
