pop3 for adsl mikrotik

I am proving mikrotik as to router and as vpn this completes works well, as to router I have a problem that is when I consult my account of mail does not connect with the mail servant is to say I make send and to receive in outlook and gives to servant error pop3 me but if I connect the ADSL to my direct PC I do not have that problem I can lower the mail and send them. I do not have installed ningun firewall as it can be the disadvantage, the version that I have of test is the 2.9.26

Hi chrifamo

Have you managed to resolve your problem? You should do a couple of tests. First I would suggest pinging your pop3 server, as it could be a DNS problem. Ping the server name, and see if it resolves to an IP address.

The next tool I use for testing, is to go to your command prompt, and type:

telnet pop.yourserver.com 110

And see if you get any response.

If none of the above is working, let me know so we can go deeper in finding your problem.

Hi, Chrifamo.

A common problem encountered when mobile users connect to public access services is that although email can be retrieved successfully, sending email will fail. The reason for this that most ISP mail systems will not accept email
from unknown network locations as a protection from abuse by bulk email senders (spam).

The MikroWall Hotspot Router solves this problem by supporting a mechanism to allow automatic redirection of outbound email traffic to a local ISP mail system.


try to Redirect the port 25 using the NAT pannel on firewall menu or just upgrade to 2.9.46.

regards.
