Requirements

 * 1) If you are installing the virtual server on a new Exchange server, make sure that messaging services are installed on the server.
 * 2) If you want the POP3 server to use a new Internet Protocol (IP) address, configure the IP address before you install the POP3 virtual server.

Create Additional POP3 Virtual Servers

 * 1) Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Exchange, and then click System Manager.
 * 2) Expand Servers, expand the server that you want to use, and then expand Protocols.
 * 3) Right-click POP3, point to New, and then click POP3 Virtual Server.
 * 4) In the New POP3 Virtual Server dialog box, type a descriptive name for the virtual server, and then click Next.
 * 5) In the IP address list, click an available IP address. Click All Unassigned to allow POP3 to respond on all unassigned IP addresses that are configured on the server. The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port is automatically assigned port 110.

Note that the IP address/TCP port combination must be unique on every virtual server. Multiple virtual servers can use the same port provided that the servers are configured to use different IP addresses.
 * 1) Click Finish.
