Hi, I'm getting an incorrect username/pasword error whenever I try to log onto servicedesk plus from either an ipad or iphone, this is happening on either the proper site or the mobile version.

It has scanned our workstations ok, and now I would like to update some of the details it couldn't automatically get (e.g. monitor serial number, cost etc).

We purchased SDP in February of last year and really like it. We have kept our upgrades up to most current and am awaiting SDP 8.0. However, something changes between February and up to last upgrade that is a bit disturbing.

Mail Fetch Locks Every Few Days
We currently have to restart the Service Desk Service every couple days. Otherwise we stop receiving incoming tickets from our exchange server. Service Desk is configured to retrieve emails from our exchange 2010 server using pop3. Restarting the service always fixes the issue for a few days. This has been going on for quite some time (years) updated to the latest releases has never fixed the issue. We are running the 8117 release and still see the issue happening. Recommendations?
