It does indeed look like overkill.... Dirk Bulinckx.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gerry Aquino Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2007 9:46 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: Re: [SA-list] OT mailserver Dirk, This may be overkill for what you want to do but http://www.communigate.com/content/default.html (http://www.communigate.com/content/default.html) Allows a "community" license. That allows unlimited FREE use as long as you have 5 or fewer accounts. I think it meets all your requirements. It is muli threaed, runs as a service and is bulletproof. I have run it for 5 years on a Win2k Pro system and it has never crashed or locked up. It is a complete Mail/SIP/PBX but has a WebGUI for setup. May be more than you want though...........

One is used as backup MX record for our domains on the internet (with their own SMTP servers on the internet), and a 2nd mailserver that is simply used for outgoing mail (users mail) and a 3rd mailserver for outgoing mail from the listserver. That 3rd server is running the MS SMTP service (that is default with Windows 2000). We're having a lot of issues with it were it seems OR not to be able to do the DNS lookup correctly OR not able to connect to the remote server Or giving relay errors that are not correct. When doing the same MX lookup via an NSLOOKUP on that system it works fine, when doing a TELNET <host> 25 from that system it works fine too, so it's realy a problem with the MS SMTP service as such. So we would like to replace this MS SMTP service by something else that works fine. What are we exactly looking for? * SMTP server that can run as service on Win2000 * It should provide an "interface" that shows the activity of the server * it should provide a simple "interface" to do the configuration (if there is any to do) * it should be able to send directly (doing MX lookup and send it via the found server) and also via a SMART HOST. * it should work :-) * it should be able to work without any mailbox (we're not having mailboxes on our internal smtp servers) * ideal it should be able to have several receiver and sender threads (ideal even possible to configure the number) * good pricing :-) I could use the same type as we have on the 1st or 2nd SMTP server, but prefer not to do, so currently we have an "old" WinRoute mailserver and an ArgoSoft mailserver running. All suggestions are welcome..... Dirk Bulinckx.
