Hi,
I want to host my own site/mail server. what do i need to do to get the mail sent to and from my server ? The mail servers i have seen (eMali Server / NTmail) all download from a pop3 & distribute the mail after that. Do I need to set up my own pop3 ? if so how ? also what is a good sendmail program ? & anything else i need to know / do ??
I am using windows 2000

Thanks in advance

Tony

Before you criticise someone walk a mile in their shoes......
Then, if they don't like what you say they are 1 mile away and barefoot.

adalt, I am not sure what you could do with Windows 2000 Pro. I will see if I can track down something for you.

Hi,
It is no problem for me to change over to win2k server, if that makes it better for setting up a mail server.
