SMTP - is this possible?

[jenlion]

I have a customer that wants to send mail from an application I work on. The app will send via exchange or SMTP, but only a local SMTP that doesn't require SSL or auth (crappy, I know).

This customer's email is hosted by their ISP, so they don't use Exchange. They all have outlook and they're popping their mail down to their local clients.

Is it possible configure Server 2003 as a local SMTP server for a single mail account, and tell that SMTP server to send the mail through a mail account assigned by the ISP, without any configuration done by the ISP?

I've run Exchange before, but not in a long time, and I haven't done much with SMTP on regular windows server.

Can this be done? Can I set up a local SMTP server on 2003 with a local account, and map that to an SMTP account the ISP gave?

Thanks!

You can send email from anyone you wish..you can not map your account to an ISP. You maybe able to use the ISP as an smart host trhoug SMTP and try it.

if you want to have the FROM field be a certain address, you would have to put that in your script.
