I don't think that makes it more secure, I think that means the admin is allowed to be more lazy.

With regards to using 2k3 vs 2k as a mail server, I don't really thing security is a huge concern. You should be locking down ntfs on either platform, you shouldnt need any services except the bare necessities, etc. You'll never have local users, nor should you ever use the console for anything, so term service/etc security is useless, as is IE security, etc. The stack itself is, of course, more robust in some respects, but you're probably filtering for common attacks upstream anyway.

Nutsehell, I'd say there are some performance benefits on 2k3, especially on larger hardware .. but overall, your install *should* be so tweaked, that it really doesn't matter.

It's MUCH more secure than 2000 because many services are not enabled by
default which is the case in 2000.
