I am pretty new at this, but running the B5 on a Windows 2008 R2 (64 bit) box without customizing the conf files with Java JDK 1.7 51b13 as administrator seems to work just fine.
The test the port 25 using telnet on the localhost works - I was also able to configure another computer (same domain) to use Outlook Express to connect and send between two users in IMAP using SMTP - To see if I could reproduce the error at all, I tried turning on the firewall, running as an administrator (but using regular command prompt) and also removing my primary DNS server. Nothing seems to reproduce the error.
