IMAP,POP3 Health Monitor setup issues

Hi,

Your nodes are likely listening on 443 for web based access, and on the specific POP3 and/or IMAP ports (defaults 110 and 143).

If you set up your VS and pool members to load balance 443 traffic and associate a default IMAP monitor, this latter will check on the 443 member port. So in your case you are talking IMAP on 443 port which will not work.

If the logic you want to implement is to provide web access to your users but do the health check on the IMAP status, then you have to change the "Service Port" parameter in your monitor and explicitely specify your IMAP port instead of *, this will override the member configured port.
