no, it should work with the smtp service from IIS as well
you'll have to define a smart host in the IIS smtp service (which point to another smtp server) in order to send smtp mails... ---------------------------------------------------------------------

use the ip address of the mail relay server of your local ISP (contact your ISP),
or if you have another local mailserver, then point to that machine ---------------------------------------------------------------------
