If you get a "wrong password" or "invalid user" message when you try to receive mail from a Client computer, there's probably something wrong with the information you've supplied for your POP account. Try the following:

  • Use the Wingate Gatekeeper and check that the POP3 Proxy server service is installed and running.  The Properties box should look like this

POP3 Proxy properties

  • In your email application, check that you've entered the proper IP address of the machine running Wingate.  This should be 192.168.0.1 if you've followed my instructions.  This information will be entered into your mail application's settings for POP server.

  • Also Make sure you use your POP account name and not your email address. Different email programs refer to this information in different ways: 
    - In Netscape 4.X, it's referred to as the "Outgoing mail server user name".
    - In Eudora, it's called "POP account"

    No matter what it's called, make sure you don't enter your email address (usually something like "yourname@yourISP.com"). 

    Also be sure to enter the Wingate delimiter character "#" at the proper point in the POP address.
