    how to test POP3 in Outlook

    enazareno

      Hello,

      I have tried setting up the mail server and configured outlook as the client. There is no problem in my SMTP and sending mail remotely. However I want to test my mail locally. I have tested my DNS and its working fine. When I try to send to myself I cannot see the mail in my inbox. I have not tried setting up a mail server before so I'm not really familiar with how this goes. I can see there is a message in the database but it seems its not being pulled into outlook. There are no errors and I can connect to POP3 at port 110 via telnet. Is there something I'm not doing right? Appreciate any suggestions.

      Regards,

      Elmo

          are you authenticating, did you set it to require auth? Did you set it to require TLS or ?WTLS??

          When you connect to it on POP using telnet, can you issue the commands to list a users mail?

            Hi,

            Thanks for the reply. This is my jboss-service.xml :

            <mbean code="org.jboss.mail.pop3.POP3Protocol" name="jboss.mail:type=MailServices,name=POP3Protocol">

            And when i telnet :


            telnet mail.ramesesinc.com 110
            Trying 10.0.0.11...
            Connected to mail.ramesesinc.com.
            Escape character is '^]'.
            +OK POP3 Server (JBMAIL POP3 Server version 1.0M4) ready <61.1152236103151@mail.ramesesinc.com>

            +OK
            PASS tinoy2005
            +OK
            LIST
            +OK 0 messages (0 octets)
            .



            When sending mail, I used outlook express and composed mail to two addresses:
            elmo@mail.ramesesinc.com and the other is my yahoo mail. The yahoo mail receives it but my local mail does not. Would appreciate any help.

            Regards,

            Elmo

                yeah, but are you sure, cus when you telnetted, you did

                telnet mail.ramesesinc.com 110
                 | Trying 10.0.0.11...
                 | Connected to mail.ramesesinc.com.


                ???

                is there any data in the database, i.e. in messagedata, storeitemmetadata, paged_mail_store, and paged_mail_store_pages

                do you have any errors in output?

                  gohip

                  then in pop3 mbean says

                  "mail.ramesesinc.com"

                  can you POST your install script, if you created one? Covering the sensitive stuff obviously...

                  it doesnt look like TLS/WTLS is messing you up, as you telnetted in w/out encryption. It sounds like something with the user name/alias/mailbox, or domain. But you said it (same mail server) let you email an outside account, which means your allowing that domain for relay? Can you POST the headers from that email that successflly made it to the outside account?

                    oh, and I did a windiff between your mbeans and mine, and they were basically the same...

                      Now, that you mention it, I'm not so sure if the SMTP is the culprit and not POP3. If it is able to send the mail remotely, does it mean it can send also locally? I was assuming that since I can send mail to my yahoo account, that it can also send mails in the intranet. What I also noticed in Outlook express is that port 110 does not use security, while port 995 is secured. Do you think its my Outlook express configuration? How do I test SMTP via telnet? Thanks again.

                        gohip

                        first, though may not matter, not sure how the DNS implementation is on JBCS, but your x says ramesesinc.com but all the server names you used, or that are listed, state mail.ramesesinc.com

                        you might change it so they all match, just to be safe, you could be having DNS issue's. Is the name of your server really mail.ramesesinc.com? If not, it may be tripping you up, and you may need to either fix DNS server, or your etc/hosts file

                        - <!--
                         Local domain group. The server will try to deliver any message to any
                        user
                        with the exact string in the @ clause locally. -->
                        - <mbean code="org.jboss.mail.domaingroup.DomainGroup" name="jboss.mail:type=MailServices,name=DomainGroup,group=Local">

                        <!-- register the protocols you want to use
                         -->
                         <attribute name="Servername" replace="true" trim="true" serialDataType="text">mail.ramesesinc.com</attribute>


                        you really should copy and post all the output you get when running .bat or .sh file , namely, post the data from this process

                        1. execute bat
                        2. wait till server is started
                        3. send an email using out look to you@yourdomain.com, as well as you@localhost, and you@localhost.localdomain, might as well try sending to other users as well, as m4 had an "unknown user" bug/fix, that could be causing this issue, but we cant tell as we dont have log
                        4. have outlook, check the mail on server (it doesnt list an error, correct?)

                        then select all text, copy, paste, and post as code if it looks nice in purdy!

                        you also, maight check the mail for the other users in outlook also, in case they get mail and you dont ("unknown user" again)

                        sending an email to you@localhost (and other users), may be one of the simplest tests, as it doesnt use DNS as much, less prone to error

                        if it lets you send mail to you@localhost or someone@localhost, then it's probably your DNS

                        again, do you have any data in database? I.e. in the tables I mentioned?

                        Telnet 216.122.130.130 25
                        EHLO [hi]
                        MAIL FROM:<jglass@my.domain.com>
                        RCPT TO:<jasong@localhost>
                        RCPT TO:<jasong@my.domain.com>
                        DATA
                        FROM: JGlass@my.domain.com
                        TO: JasonG@my.domain.com
                        TO: jasong@localhost
                        SUBJECT: Send Response
                        
                        this is another telnet test email
                        
                        
                        .
                        quit


                        also, again, post the headers of the email that was successfully sent outside the domain

                        so, to do:
                        change server name in jboss-service.xml
                        post log file
                        try send mail to other users
                        try receive mail for other users (outlook)
                        look in your database for existence of mail data
                        try and sendmail using telnet to outside mail acct without authenticating
                        try and sendmail using telnet to outside mail acct with authenticating
                        also, from your server, you might try an nslookup of ramesesinc.com and mail.ramesesinc.com make sure your dns is working locally, and get rid of those other DNS servers, till your issue is resolved, though it will interfere with sending out of domain mail, for example, to yahoo, may not be able to lookup.

                        I'll do a diff of your and mine service.xml tomorrow, though dont know when I might have time, also, !!!Andrews Back!!! He'll probably be able to help, possibly without asking you go through all these steps...

                            Hi Jason,

                            I really appreciate your taking the time to helping me out. Like I said, I'm quite a newbie with email as I haven't tried setting one up before. When I try to ping mail.ramesesinc.com, it responds so I assume that the DNS is ok (is this the wrong assumption?). My setup is like this - I have a linux machine where I've installed Jboss and is also the DNS server. Another machine runs on XP which is the client that runs the Outlook express.

                            As to the number of records:

                            messagedata = 0
                            storeitemmetadata = 44
                            paged_mail_store = 44
                            paged_mail_store_pages = 44

                            I will also try your suggestion to double check. Thanks again

                            Regards,

                            Elmo

                              Very interesting. What DB is this? It looks like your storage is messed up or the messages are stuck in the queue.

                                oh, yeah, that looks a little messed up...messagedata is empty, where in it looks like you have actually received about 44 emails

                                as andrew has pointed out, did you mess with the headers in anyway, as I think thats whats in message data, mainly

                                  Andrew, cant this also occur, when messages are actually being delivered, i.e. delivered to outlook, but user forgot to uncheck "remove/delete messages from server"

                                  then they would'nt exist in messagedata, but would exist elsewhere?

                                    Hi Andrew and Jason,

                                    I am using MySQL 5. I am out of the office right now but there's an option that I've checked in outlook something like delete after some days. Will this have an effect? I will try to check it out on Monday. But I've been thinking about Jason's suggestion to remove security. I remember when I installed it it requires SSL when sending but there is no security when receiving POP3. I will try to reinstall it and remove the security. I have observed when I try the send/receive option in Outlook I can see the ff quick messages - Authenticating ... and then Disconnecting. I am not very familiar with this stuff so basically I don't know how to test it. I don't even know how to see the logs in Outlook. I am using Outlook bec. most people use it but if I have the time I will try Mozilla. But I assume this shouldn't be a problem. Anyway, I appreciate all your help. Thanks and have a good weekend.

                                    Regards,
