Andy,
Thanks for the feedback and tips. I'd run through those settings only to fine
it was a case of anti-virus software gone wacko. It bound itself to port 25 but
refused to acknowledge it was doing so. An uninstall of the software and
reinstall cleaned up the problem.
It was more of a stab in the dark than anything else but it worked.
Thanks again for the help.

Well, let's start by making SURE it's NOT the IIS SMTP that interferes with
IMail. Go into the NT Services applet and STOP the Microsoft SMTP services.
Then restart the IMail SMTP service to see if we have better luck. If not,
you are apparently running other applications/services that attempt to do
their own email delivery. Example: O'Reilly WebBoard has a mailing list
feature which captures port 25 unless you deactivate that feature.
Basically, go into the NT Services applet, and turn off one application
after the other until you find the one that captures port 25. Also, check
the Task Manager for other suspect applications.
