Hey,

I am using windows 7 and require an smtp server. I have read a few articles online and they mention that iis has one. But i have no idea how to use iis or how to access it from my computer. So anyhelp on downloading or accessing would be very benficial! Hope to hear soon!

IIS is Internet Information Services, which you can access via Control Panel -> Administrative Tools. You have to make sure that it's installed/enabled first. Again, Control Panel -> Programs & Features and then 'Turn Windows features on or off'.
 
Hey I followed what nu said and I now have iis installed, and I get the management tools up. How ever how would I configure smtp on it so that I can send an email from a asp.net website? Do I even need iis for that or is there something within. Visual studio I need to activate?

Many thanks
