Since Microsoft's SMPT service is only really useful (IMHO) for sending
messages using CDONTS in web site scripts (and other server side scripts),
you can just change the port on the Microsoft service and run them both on
the same IP address. At least this works on NT4 (haven't checked it on
Win2K yet, I'm evaluating Pro and haven't done a lot with Server yet).

We are in the process of evaluating IMAIL 6.02 on a Windows 2000 SMP
multi-homed system. So far so good. We don't have tons of accounts yet, but
are planning on quite a few in the future. We have yet to run across a
problem. It looks like IMAIL disables, or at least it shuts off the built in
SMTP service after it is installed. I don't recall shutting it down myself,
yet it is now turned off. I'm not sure how it would interact with the SMTP
service of Windows 2000, but I'm fairly certain you will not be able to use
both IMAL and Windows 2000 SMTP on the same IP address (due to the same
ports being used). I would simply use IMAIL, and forget the built-in
functionality. If it breaks FP functionality, have a separate IP for each
web site and mail service, use the SMTP service on the http IP address, and
IMAIL on the mail IP address. (I am no expert, just guessing)
