No There is not any Difference Between gmail and shareweb2010

I've been using smtp4Dev to test sending emails without them actually reaching anyone.
Now I want to be able to also test retrieving emails from an email server using POP3 but smtp4dev doesn't seem to support this.
Is there an application I can use to test both SMTP for sending mail and POP3 for retrieving mail on my local system?
Alternatively what would be a suitable lightweight application for testing mail retrieval with POP3?
hMailServer can be configured to behave as a dummy smtp, pop3 and/or imap server
These are instructions from http://csns.calstatela.edu/wiki/content/cysun/course_materials/hmailserver
Download hMailServer
During installation, choose:
Full installation
Use built-in database engine
Run hMailServer Administrator
In hMailServer Administrator:
Add a domain localhost.localdomain
Add a catch-all address (Domain -> localhost.localdomain -> Advanced -> Catch-all address) , e.g. cysun#localhost.localdomain. If an email is sent to this domain but the address of the email does not match any existing account under this domain, the catch-all address will get this email.
Add an account, e.g. cysun#localhost.localdomain .
Under Settings -> Protocols -> SMTP -> Delivery of e-mail, specify the host name to be localhost .
Under Advanced -> IP Ranges, delete Internet. This step is a safety measure to ensure that your email server will only be used locally.
Under Advanced -> Auto-ban, uncheck Enabled so your account won't get automatically disabled if you mistype the password a few times.
I also downloaded and installed thunderbird to make it easier to manage emails on the server.
I have one domain on my server and a mailbox (with the same domain ending) on a different server. I configured the mail and MX fields of DNS of that server to the proper value. All is working. But as I send an email from the website contact form (configured with SMTP = localhost) sending an email to the email address on the other server, the email will not reach the mail box ..Even no error is generated..Simply the mail server receives nothing. On the other hand from the contact form I can send email to different mailboxes.
How to solve this ?
I solved the issue by setting in the first panel for the SMTP settings in MailEnable, the host values to 200.x.x.x which should redirect all the traffic outside the server.
We have a IIS 6.0 server on AWS EC2 that is receiving emails and forwarding onto another IIS box, we are inadvertently sending NDR emails via the SMTP service to the forged From: header with the spam attached.
A few quick questions regarding IIS 6.0 SMTP
From reading we don't see a was to stop NDRs (this is by design to meet RFC requirements)
As we accept all emails sent to our address and process off line on a seperate machine can someone advise why NDR's are been delivered in the first place? Is there some other loophole they are using to force the SMTP server to generate Delayed and Non Delivery Reports?
Also can anyone recommend software that can stop this type of attack. e.g. Toriss, ORF from Vamsoft
You have to use SPF on the receiving machine so it does not accept mails with forged reverse-paths. There is no way to really fix the issue later in the mail server chain. (Note that the SMTP reverse path is not necessarily the same as the address in the From header, for example they always differ in list mails. If IIS does send bounce mails to the From address instead of the reverse-path then it is horribly broken.) If IIS does not know SPF, then you have to use a different mail server or an SMTP proxy.
I have a windows server running an application which sends mail via PHP. Some of the people who should be recieving the emails are complaining they are not getting them. I think they are using Comcast or AOL. What can I do to my SMTP settings and/or DNS to allow these to go through?
Investigate SPF (Sender Protection Framework) to increase the authenticity of your emails.
internally, our organization limits what servers and applications can send emails. I would like to be able to have scripts that could be run on any server send an email when done. Is it possible to install IIS SMTP on a single server and have that relay all mail the servers send to our standard relay servers? All the advice I see on the internet talks about configuring relays for outbound connectivity, but this would be for internal use only. the flow would be something like this, I believe
[any server] --> My SMTP relay --> corporate SMTP relay --> Internal Mail system
Is this doable? if so, any links on how to configure? I have nearly zero SMTP knowledge.
Doable, you should search for "SMARTHOST SMTP" in google. If your mail server limits relaying to specific HOSTS/IP address, you'll still need to add the new server to the relay list. Setup will be a little different depending on you mail server/version (Exchange, IIS SMTP).
SMART HOST for Exchange:

I have a similar setup to what you have described. You might want want to check if your SMTP server allows relaying for authenticated users, since this might allow you current script to send emails using a domain/email user account.
