The POP Server and Client Access-based Mail
The AS/400 POP server can act as a messaging and address book server for
MAPI-based Client Access for Windows 95/NT clients. With this support, all mail is
sent to the POP server on the AS/400 by way of extensions to the standard POP
client/server interface. No SMTP connection on the client is required. This is shown
in Figure 185.
Client Access-based clients can send and receive mail through the POP server with
any of these address types:
v INTERNET (the standard Internet format, sometimes referred to as an SMTP
address)
v OFFICEVISION (the SNADS address itself, not an SMTP address that is
converted to SNADS. This type also includes AS/400 distribution lists.)
v AS400FAX (the dialing sequence as defined by the Facsimile Support for OS/400
LPP).
