    Port 25 is generally used by an SMTP server.

    There is an SMTP server included with IIS on both Windows XP and Windows
    2003, however IIS is not installed by default on either of those operating
    systems. Please go to Start -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs ->
    Windows Components and install the necessary IIS components.

    Make sure you get the latest security patches for IIS! Use Microsoft
    Baseline Security Analyser (MBSA) to verify you are up-to-date:

    Cheers
