Anyone use Argosoft's email server?  88$ - nice features.  It seems
reasonable to me - and it comes with web mail (if you want).

Tim
I have not found a freeware mail server for the Windows platform, but I have
both a Windows server and a Linux server, and on the Linux box, both of the
very
popular Sendmail and Postfix are open source (free)  and both are very
easily
configurable for anti-spam and anti-virus scanning.  There are even several
very
good open source anti-virus programs for the Linux box as well.

On a Windows Box, I run Imail 7.0 which is getting more expensive with each
upgrade, but is a lot easier to administer than, say Exchange.

I purchased RedHat 7.3 from Best Buy for $49.00.  While the software is open
source, the purchase gives me a year of free updates, and that is really
convenient.  The Sendmail and PostFix mail servers (as well as apache and a
couple of database products) are installed by default.
I use Webmin for remote administration.

For a windows FTP server I use SERV-U

| Howdy.

| I am running a server at my house (adsl, speak easy, sweet) I have all the
server software I want except for a mail server.  I am looking for
something,
free, runs on Windows 2000 AS, and has a GUI for admin (don't want to learn
a
whole bunch of command line junk, yeah I am lazy, I know).  Also a decent
freeware FTP server would be nice,  I am using IIS FTP and it is junk.
