POINT
If the inquiry time interval from the PLC or other module to the server is short
because of the POP3 server specifications, access may be restricted (lock status)
on the server side.
Check the POP3 server specifications, and set the inquiry time interval accordingly.
(It is recommended to set the value of the inquiry time interval to the initial (5
minutes) or more.)
POINT

• The POP3 server transfers received e-mails addressed to users to the
corresponding users.
