SMTP is the core engine for Exchange 2000. SMTP has to be running in the
Exchange 2000 server.

        Hi all, it seems that if I do not start the smtp service on my
SBS 2K server that has the works, (ISA, Exch and AD) my Exchange mail
will not go out. It works OK for a couple of days then stops. Is it not
a best practice to disable that service and just open up port 25 for
exchange? I guess I will need to buy a SBS server book.
        I have another SBS environment where my isa  publishes to an
internal SBS exch server and on that  isa firewall I do not run the SMTP
service.
        Any suggestions for the stand-alone config with SBS, do I need
to keep the smtp service disabled and do something else?
        Thanks,
        Peter
