Overview
eXchange POP3 is a gateway (connector) that downloads messages from Internet mailboxes using the POP3 or
IMAP protocol. It then
determines the proper recipient(s) for each message and sends them to Exchange Server using the SMTP protocol.
eXchange POP3 can also receive Internet-bound messages from Exchange Server and relay them to the Internet.
eXchange POP3 consists of 2 programs:
 eXchange POP3 gateway
The eXchange POP3 Gateway is the program that does all the work of processing messages. It runs as a process.
A process is a program that has no window interface. On Windows platforms that support it,
you can have the process run as a service.
 eXchange POP3 administrator
The eXchange POP3 Administrator is the program that provides a user interface for the Gateway allowing you to
monitor and configure the Gateway in real-time. You only need to work with the Administrator program. It handles
starting and stopping the Gateway process.
