sorry ,my english is very pool.

I use cfpop tag to connect a pope server but failed ,it give a message: logon failed .bad username or password .

i try another pop3 server ,it is ok .

my pop3 server which is buld-in on windows 2003 ,use a username of windows user.

maybe it use a NTLM to Authentication,but the cfpop have no attribute to set the way for Authentication.

who can give me a example or some idea ,thanks!

CF doesn't support using NTLM Authentication for POP3. You'll need to configure your POP server to use the standard authentication mechanism used by POP.
