No, but setting up IIS will install it, if you don't specify otherwise

Subject: [development-axapta] Does Axapta require an SMTP server?

 

Hi all,
Our network admin has just informed me that there is an open SMTP port
on
our Axapta server. Does Axapta by any chance require an SMTP server, or
install one during it's installation? I did the install and at no stage
did
I manually configure an SMTP server on the machine!

Thanks Malcolm, that's exactly the info I was looking for. And no, we're not
running IIS on that box.

Hi Matt

ASFAIK Axapta doesn't install an SMTP Server, nor does it require one. There
are some features in Axapta 3.0 that optionally make use of an SMTP server
via the Dundas mailer interface (see SysMailer classes).

MS IIS does, however, install one, so if you've got IIS running on that
server then its likely that this is how the SMTP server came to be there.
The SMTP server that is enabled by IIS is installed as an open relay by
default, which is bad news if your server is accessible to the outside
world, but not such a problem if its hidden entirely behind a firewall.
