The title says it all.
How do I get Exchange to act as my inbox for my internet mail? I
hope that it doesn't involve the plus pack as I am resisting buying
it. Everything is set up and I have been using Eudora and then also
Agent.. But I want to take my multiple mail accounts and then just
make Exchange be the universal IN..

Agent does SMTP but Microsoft only receives using POP3 ... they send using
SMTP, I think.
BTW, there are bigs in Agent's SMTP in version 0.99a ... you need 0.99b to get
the fixes.

I have been completely unsuccessful in getting MS Exchange inbox to
connect to a POP3 server.

This is a problem with many people starting up different client
services on their own.
As an example: Most of my customers bought their internet packages or
got them free when they signed up with their provider. The software
was pre-configured and bullet-proof (the user just had to drop in
their sign-up name and the rest was automated).
Now many people are having to actually configure these systems
themselves and some are not having much success. You best resource is
your internet provider who SHOULD have a set of step by step
instructions for the service they provide.
It is practically impossible for us to guess what your problem is when
all you say is "I have been completely unsuccessful in getting MS
Exchange inbox to connect to a POP3 server."
All I can say is that I have been entirely sucessful is getting MS
Exchange inbox to connect to a POP3 server on many different machines!
Most servers that provide access to the Internet run a combination of
Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP), or Post Office Protocol version
3 (POP3). SMTP is used to send Internet messages from the Internet
Mail to the final destination. POP3 is used to retrieve messages sent
to you from a POP3 account mailbox.
