Exchange 2000 running on Win2K is great. If by secure, you mean in a SPAM prevention sense, then the design and configuration of your server is everything....generally, just enforce authenticated smtp so that UCE can't relay, and you'll be fine. Otherwise, an anti-SPAM server might be your answer. Otherwise, any mail server should be behind a firewall, and be showing only smtp/pop3/imap ports as necessary. That way, it really doesn't matter what platform it's running on, does it? :) There is nothing "insecure" about Win2k or Exchange 2000 servers, just unknowing admins who leave themselves open for attack. I also understand that Sendmail was re-released last week because of a major security vuln...if you go that route, you might want to watch the version....

Any recommendations for a secure mail server out there? The platform will be Win2k. I currently have a sendmail server out there, but we're considering making some changes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
