Pop 3 email goes to never-never land

I'm using the Pop3 connector to retirive my ISP hosted email.

I have setup the connector as required, with the user account as the
destination.

When I force a download, the user email is downloaded (it disappears from
the ISP), but not delivered to the user account.

In fact, I can't find it anywhere...

I have the client Outlooks getting mail directly from the ISP, till I figure
this out (which works fine, I have 8 users..)

Undeliverable mail is supposed to show up in the admin account, it doesn't.

Where can I check?

thanks

Hi - I'm going to take a wild stab in the dark and guess that you're using
Microft SBS....as the term "POP connector" has nothing to do with Outlook,
and has to do with mail servers, generally. Exchange has no native POP
connector. You should post in an SBS group if so....and if not, consult the
manufacturer of the third party POP connector for support on their product.

OT, but note that the POP connector method is not recommended - check out
