Hi Jose, I did a reboot of the server and all systems go. Yes, I did check the cable, information store and disk space and all was good. Thanks for the reply.

Is the information store up? If not are you out of disk space?

Here's the scenario. In the services, all Exchange Services state their started. When I go into the Exchange System manager and look at the POP3 and IMAP virtual servers, they are stopped. Try to start them and get the following in the event viewer. Event ID 105 Source POP3SVC The server was unable to register the administration tool discovery information. The administration tool may not be able to see the server. The data is the error code. Event ID 115 Source POP3SVC The service could not bind instance 1. The data is the error code. I've been trying to find a solution but not having much luck. Anyone give me some pointers on how to get these virtual servers backup and running. All other virtual servers are running ok.
