Enable POP3 and IMAP4 Users to Use Default Protocol Settings

In addition to using the Set-PopSettings or Set-ImapSettings cmdlets to manage POP3 and IMAP4 settings for all your users, you can also use the Set-CASMailbox cmdlet to specify individual POP3 and IMAP4 settings for your users. You can also use the Set-CASMailbox cmdlet to enable a user to use the default protocol settings for a server when you use the Set-PopSettings or Set-ImapSettings cmdlets.

The following table shows the parameters to use to configure a POP3 or IMAP4 user to use the protocol default settings as specified on the Client Access server.
