Mariella, Well.. I still can't decipher what you're using the MS SMTP service for. If you are using the G-Lock EasyMail program via the MS SMTP then I'll bet the Default SMTP Virtual Server Advanced Settings show a TCP Port other than 25. If this is what you or your company needs to do, send mass mailings out, then the MS SMTP with a TCP Port other than 25 would be needed if you are utilizing IMail too. Your mass mailing program could have a return address that is active on the IMail server. Thus the IMail server is where all the email would go to for your domain. If you want IMail to also send out its' email via the MS SMTP then that's a totally different matter. I prefer to using IMail, with the Killer Web Templates (Web Mail), because it's easy to setup and administer. If you decide to go this route then upgrade your IMail to the most current version, 7.13 I believe and also ensure the Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 has been installed.
