Topic: Outlook POP3 connection not working

==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.8.4
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Debian 6
====

Hi,

my Thunderbird receives and sends emails properly but MS Outlook 2007 can only send emails.
I use EXACTLY the same settings (hostnames, usernames, passwords, ports, etc.) on Thunderbird and Outlook 2007.  But Outlook refuses to connect to the POP3-server.

What do I have to do?


Greetings
