Kikoz,
Unless otherwise installed differently, by default the "Default SMTP Virutal
Server" should be setup on your development XP box. You can find it if you
go into "Computer Management" under Services and Applications -> INternet
Information Services -> Default SMTP Virtual Server
You might have to right click on "Default SMTP Virtual Server" select
"Properties", then the "Access" tab. Click on the "Relay..." button and
change the selection to "All except the list below"
Also, I am assuming that your dev box is behind a firewall so that way you
don't put a box on the network that will relay to any e-mail address from
any e-mail address.
Then to send you message just using code like:
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "localhost";
SmtpMail.Send(fromAddress, toAddress, subject, message);
HTH
