I need a windows service creating which will implement the SMTP protocol, essentially it needs to listen on port 25 for incoming messages, when it recieves a message it needs to store the from, to, subject and body fields of the message in an SQL 2005 database. There is no requirement at this stage to store any attachments. When the message has been stored the service simply needs to relay the message to a real smtp server for delivery to the ultimate recipient(s) Note the diagram SMTP Server ^ | Windows Service ^ | Client PC's (Outlook) The service needs to be written in VB.NET 2.0 Thanks
