You need to install an SMTP server on the machine. IIS can be configured to
run an SMTP server, via "Add/Remove Windows Components" if you have IIS
installed on the machine, and IIS can be installed on most non-home editions
of Windows.

Please clarifiy: do you want to *receive* mail or *send* mail...?

If you want to receive mail, then SMTP / System.Net.Mail won't help you, as
that is only for sending mail:
