Hey i use Webserver Puppy it works great for a dedicated server - http://www.browserpuppy.com/server.html
Then install your favorite mail server and you are good to go.
"Edit" Xmail works great on Webserver Puppy but needs to be compiled, thats what i use.

When you see this pic ,it just means I don't need X any more, the computer can free more MEM to do other job,and I don't like the "Xampp" ,in my opinion ,every soft compiled by my self,and use the options also by my self, see this.

I think if one guy want to use a web server,they First, they should not use Xampp, build from src and step to step, he will knows more ABC than to use.
Very Happy
And I so sorry, our school forbid the port 25 ,so I haven't try mail server any more~

But without port 25, your mail wouldn't go to the Wide area network,isn't?
Sorry, next time I will try once to test the mail server..
