Hi,
My POP3 server is active and i am receiving mails from inside my
network. In my firewall we have not opened the port no 110 and I don't
want to open this port always. I want to open when ever needed and for
the perticular ip address from which i want to check the mail
How to Open the port 110 for a given perticular IP Address
Regards
Vinod
