POP3 Error: “ERR Command is not valid in this state” when connecting to Exchange 2010

Posted on May 19, 2011 by Ahmed Tawfik

In order to fix the problem, issue the following command at the Exchange shell, which allows Exchange POP to use plain text credentials:

Set-PopSettings -LoginType PlainTextLogin

Then restart the POP3 service, that’s it!
