Yes, that is true. AFAIK, there is no native POP client provided by IBM - unless I missed it along the way - I'm happy to learn about it.

You still need some kind of POP client to receive the messages. I think
I mentioned that we just bought RJS Software's POP/400 package. There is
something free at easy400.net but it doesn't break out attachments.
Along with MMAIL at easy400.net is something else that can read POP3
mailboxes, but it takes a fair amount of setting up, I think.

I know the RJS product, since I used to work there. It is going to do
just fine for us, while there may be other options in addition to those
at easy400.net, but I'm not aware of them.

Tim,

How would you pull the messages from exchange using pop?

But why set up the pop server on the iseries? That just creates another hop. You can pull the messages directly from exchange using pop.

Ken,

I wasn't sure, but thought something like this might be necessary.
Once configured, the POP3 email on the iSeries will only work if the emails are forwarded from Exchange.

Hi Paul -

Maybe, not sure. I'm confused that if the replies are currently ending up in my Exchange email box, how would it get to the POP3 server.
Remember, the i5 originates the email, but Exchange is sending it.
As I mentioned previously in this discussion, it doesn't matter how the email is going out. As long as the replies are being sent by Message-Media as normal emails, the regular email rules will apply to determine what server to deliver it to.

Once the email hits the Exchange server, you can use a rule to forward it to another email address that includes the i host name. Said rule would need to look for strings in the headers and/or subject and/or body to determine which emails to apply the rule to.

I.e. if your domain were example.com, forward/redirect tosomeemailaddress@xxxxxxxxxxxxx where i.example.com resolves to the IP address of your i system.
