I don't think so, the POP3 Service is a part of IIS 6 and that cannot be
installed to Windows 2000.

Uhm, well, nothing I guess, except that it's local and you have direct
control over it. And when you don't have Internet connection, you can't
reach your ISP's mail server, but you can test with the local SMTP/POP3
(found one that I tried previously: http://www.pspop3.com)

Yes, the SMTP Service stores the emails waiting for delivery in queue (Queue
folder). Emails sent to the local domain are delivered to the Drop folder as
their target is local. Without an Internet connection, the outgoing emails
will stay in the Queue folder and when their delivery wait limit expires,
they get into the Badmail folder IIRC.
