Exactly, create a user called joe with the same password and it should work.
Once you get that going you should look into Active Directories and take
full advantage of your Server afterall that's what you paid for you should
use it. Event in the smallest of enviorments there are distinct advantages
to using AD.
What email software are you using? Can I assume that the web pages on this
server are your companies web site and is that exposed to the internet
somehow?
