@efukt82 just give me a couple of weeks and we will go very far in depth of installing, setting up, and using hmail server

program name ??? not to mention the email server should have at least 1gb of memory , this is because windows xp was the operating system that set the 128mb guidelines for windows operating systems . with that said assuming that you have service pack 1 and only that 256 or 512 would be advised , so an updated service pack 3 system running this unknown mail server client should have 1-2gb to be stable and responsive . if you used an 80gb hard drive you could allow 5gb per user quota sharing

@efukt82 win xp pro sp-3 with 2 gb ram. and 15 gb hdd, plus, this is only a test. the frequency of mail sending should have an effect on the administrator's prefrenc for how mutch storage. k?

Could I use this to send unlimited bulk emails? I've been searching forever for something free that would allow me to send unlimited emails(or atleast a very large amount, like 10,000/day)
