This is a server-based question. Moving to serverfault. – John Conde Nov 5 '10 at 11:58

Better yet, hMail:

Mercury/32 (a.k.a. Mercury Mail Transport) has equivalent functionality to hMail without the SQL database requirements. – user48838 Nov 6 '10 at 9:11

Install the SMTP Feature on any Windows 2008 system and you have a fully funtional SMTP Server.

If you are using Windows 2003 then you install the same service through Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and go to the "Add/Remove Windows Components" tab. From there you will find it under "Application Server -> Internet Inforamtion Services (IIS) -> SMTP"

Thanks, I would have thought it would have been under email services, though – Casebash Nov 15 '10 at 23:33
