ADDING REMOTE POP3 CLIENT PROFILES
This screen enables you to add remote POP3 servers that Internet Exchange may access.
To add a remote POP3 server accessible to the POP3 client/BSMTP Decoder, follow the steps given below.
- Supply values corresponding to the following parameters:
- Login Name
The user name of an existing client account on that server (e.g. jdoe@ima.com).
- Password
The password assigned to the user name previously entered in the
Login Name
field. For security purposes, the password should be entered again in the
Confirm Password
field for authentication.
- POP3 Server
The POP3 server name (e.g. popservername.com) to be accessed by Internet Exchange.
The system can allow a user to access as many POP3 servers. A POP3 server may contain
several user accounts as well.
- Port Number
The port number of the remote POP3 server to be accessed by Internet Exchange.
- Timeout
The timeout value, which determines how long the POP3 client will wait for the POP3 server (in minutes) to respond
to the POP3 commands it issued.
- Maximum no. of messages per Session
The maximum number of messages per POP session. After the POP3 client has downloaded the maximum number of messages
from the server, it will issue the "QUIT" command to end the current session. The server will then update and remove
those deleted messages from the maildrop. After that, the POP3 client will start a new POP3 session to download the
remaining messages.
- Click the Submit button to add the newly created
POP3 User Profile to the BSMTP database.
