cant send & recieve mails outlook 2003

[Chamisoft Coperation]

Hi,

I am facing a strange issue related to outlook 2003. My POP3 server is
external. I have 30 client machines on my domain and I have configured
outlook 2003 successfully But on 1 machines it gives me an error while
connecting to the POP3 & SMTP server that is " Receiving reported' error
(0x80042108): 'Outlook is unable to connect your incoming (POP3) email
server". When I configured same email account on another machine it was
working fine with outlook 2003 and 2002. What was surprising is, on this
machine outlook express also not working.We have ISA 2000 installed on our
server. But it may not be an issue as outlook 2003 could be configured on
other PCs.I think the issue is something related to outlook 2003's
connection with local PC. The one thing I have noticed is that
on this machine I am not able to create telnet session to port 110 or 25 on
my internal server.But from other PCs its fine.

Please help me on this issue.

Best Regards

Sounds like the ISA Firewall Client isn't installed on the one machine that
isn't working. But, basically, if *telnet* doesn't work from the machine
(assuming you're telning to port 110 and 25 on the POP/SMTP server, not of
the ISA server), it sure isn't an Outlook issue. Figure out your networking
problems first, then if Outlook isn't working, post back here.
