Windows 2003 webedition smtp connections / SMB limit

Hello
We are running a 3rd party mailserver (Mearak mailserver) on a Windows 2003
webedition server. We are having some problems with smtp connections.
Clients and serveres are getting the error Connection refused. We've been
looking every were for the cause, and we've concluded that it is not a
firewall or a network problem.

Recently I found this article:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserv...rview/web.mspx
which says that Windows 2003 webedition has a "10 in-bound server message
block (SMB)" limit. Does any one know if smtp connections are countet as
in-bound SMB?

Thanks

no, they aren't.
are you sure that the problem isn't your mail server (some setting or
licensing..)?
