SMTP in and of itself is a push technology, the only time that is not the case is if you have passthrough server that holds you messages until your machine issues an ETRN command, and even at that the ETRN command is really just telling the machine your connecting to that you are now here and available to receive any messages that it wants to send to you. --Joe -----Original Message----- From: Andy lawrence [mailto:Andrew@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, October 07, 2002 2:08 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Exchange 2000 - triggering email collection http://www.MSExchange.org/ This is a follow up question to the etrn question posted earlier... If you have Exchange 2000 and collect email via smtp, how can you tell Exchange to try and collect email now. I know the pop3 connector has a retrieve now button, can you do the same thing with SMTP?
