Your Server

setting up smtp on a dedicated server?

hey i've made a web application on php-mysql and its now on a dedicated server. i've made quite a few websites n all of them were on a shared server so all the configuration was already done for me. due to the size of this particular project, a dedicated server was in order. now my question is, how do i set up smtp? i'm using apache 2 and windows xp. i could use some help here because the product is online right now and cant support e-mails! thanks

1. You're not running a server environment. You may try the SMTP server that comes with IIS, but I don't think it will run on XP. However, a "better" way to do this is to have a dedicated sendmail server. In fact, the ISP who's hosting this server should have a SMTP server you can route mail through.
