"Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible

After researching Microsoft's KB I have found the following article that
matches my particular problem. Article Q278637:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278637&Product=sbserv2003
Mind you that this article is submitted by Microsoft themselves. According
to Microsoft this artcile applies to Microsoft Windows Small Business Server
2003 Premium Edition and Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Standard Edition as
stated at the bottom of the article and which is exactly what I am running.
Under "Resolution" it advises to go to "Internet Services Manager". Is it
just me because, I have "Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager", not
"Internet Services Manager". Well I assume that this is a typographical
error and continue with their resolution. Then they advise to "clear the
Enable Bandwidth Throttling option", and once again their procedures
conflicts with my install of SBS. I do NOT have the "Enable Bandwidth
Throttling" option to clear. Am I the only one that is experiencing this?
Could it be that Microsoft does not know their product or did I misconfigure
my install?
Anyways, my overall objective is to configure POP3 service in order to have
remote users download their mail using Outlook or Outlook Express.. I have
been unsuccessful. After troubleshooting and extensive research, it has led
me to the KB article mentioned above. I do not know if disabling the
bandwidth throttling will resolve my problem. It is worth a shot, but
unfortunately there is an error in Microsoft's solution. Maybe there should
be a knowledge base that provided corrections for Micorsoft's Knowledge
Base. I am not asking for help with the above KB article, I am asking for
help with my getting POP3 service up and running. But if you do know
anything about this KB article or have suggestions, any information would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Open the IIS Manager, click the help button, choose help topics. When the
help window comes up, search on "bandwidth throttling", without the quotes.
The very first article that my search brought up was entitled "Throttling
Bandwidth", and about two-thirds of the way down, is the section entitled
"To globally throttle www service bandwidth". And it shows you where to do
that, and yes, I did, indeed, find the checkbox of which it speaks.
I am getting the following message whenever I forward a message from OE to a
user, me on a client computer. I am sending from the server. "The
connection to the server has failed. Account:
'obts01.outlookbythesound.MukWoods', Server:
'obts01.outlookbythesound.MukWoods', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E" That looks suspiciously
like your error message, but, since nothing else is happening on the server,
generally, when I am sending the message--certainly there is nobody using a
web site--I can't believe it has anything to do with bandwidth throttling.
My message, which is a forward of an OE message, does get through. So
something isn't being reported correctly. But I have no idea what. One
should probably ask in the OE newsgroup.

Thank you for the reply and the help. I did find the bandwidth throttling
option and it was already disabled. This leads me to beleive that bandwidth
throttling does not have anything to do with my problem of inability to
connect to POP3 server. For now I will leave the throttling option as is,
disabled.
I don't think the OE newsgroup will help with my problem, I do think my
problem is within POP3 server or ISA. Also I am unable to telnet to port
110 on my server in the command prompt. This newsgroup is near the last of
my resources for help. I hope someone can shed some light on this.

I verified the settings that you suggested and am still getting the same
problems. I ran a netstat -an | find ":110" and a telnet port 110 getting
the same results. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
