Configure POP3 Connector for SBS 2008 (Exchange 2007)

exchange-2007windows-sbs-2008

I have a client which has all his mail on server outside of his company. Right now his exchange server (on SBS 2008 is configured using POP3 connector but problem is mail gets deleted from server when downloaded by connector. Is there a way to make pop3 connector leave emails on server (external one) and download them as well for use within Exchange.

Client wants to "feel" exchange before making the move totally so he would like to play with it for longer while without loosing mails he has on his server.

The POP3 pull in SBS has no setting to leave messages on the server as Outlook provides in email polling.

You can however setup Outlook to pull with POP3 and store the email into your Exchange profile (local OST). This way you can test Exchange while leaving email on the mail server for later. The only issue is, you need to configure each Outlook separately.
