If you stop people telneting on port 25 you won't recieve any mails. If you stop people from telneting port 110 then your clients won't be able to use pop3 if they use it. If they do not use it, and you do not have any firewall just stop the pop3 service of exchange. -----Original Message----- From: Oluwaseyi Owoeye [mailto:OOwoeye@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 1:42 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Blocking direct telnet access http://www.MSExchange.org/ Yes, I want to stop people from telnetting into either port 25 or port 110 -----Original Message----- From: Robert Abela [mailto:robert@xxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 1:42 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Blocking direct telnet access And you want to close the telnet port or any kind of telnet on ports 25, 110 etc? -----Original Message----- From: Oluwaseyi Owoeye [mailto:OOwoeye@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 1:31 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Blocking direct telnet access http://www.MSExchange.org/ No it is not -----Original Message----- From: Robert Abela [mailto:robert@xxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 1:34 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Blocking direct telnet access Is it behind a firewall? -----Original Message----- From: Oluwaseyi Owoeye [mailto:OOwoeye@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 1:19 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Blocking direct telnet access http://www.MSExchange.org/ Hello guys, I am presently running Exchange 2000 on Windows 2000 Server.
