Scuse me... Vista Will Not Have SMTP Service?

iis smtp nntp:

Sorry for the chicken-little but I figured you kind folks would be able to
provide information to calm me down :)

"The SMTP service is required for using the SMTP delivery protocol, but it
is not installed with Windows Vista. To use the SMTP delivery protocol on
Windows Vista, you must separately install an SMTP service."

That's from: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172485.aspx

That doesn't say "beta only" it just says Vista. And it includes the
Ultimate Edition (for developers, right?). Also, because someone elsewhere
told me that it was related to Exchange 2007 being 64bit only... we're
running Vista 64 Utilmate and it just ain't there.

Can anyone explain how Developers are to be coding .Net SMTP or CDO without
the SMTP Service?

Argosoft doesn't come in 64bit ;-)

Thanks for any insights.

At this stage, as I understand it, SMTP will be shipped with Vista/Longhorn
Server, but NNTP will not.

SMTP server and NNTP server are owned by the Exchange group, and it's up to
them to decide what will be included, and what won't.
