Windows Server 2008 Web SMTP

8/26/2008 8:31:04 PM

I just started a migration to windows server 2008 web edition an ran into a bit of a headache. The SMTP server at first appears to be missing even after installing the SMTP feature. After some digging it appears that it can't be administered from within iis7 manager. However, it can be managed from "Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager."

Non-obvious.

How do you access IIS 6 from within windows server 2008?

You have to first add the role for IIS6 compatibility, that will install the IIS6 manager.
