“Cannot bind SMTP requests to port 25 because it is already in use by another process” error

Question #887

I receive an error in the event log Firewall “Cannot bind SMTP requests to port 25 because it is already in use by another process.” What could it be?

Answer

Its probably the “Simple Internet Mail Service” installed automatically with IIS. Disable the service in the services control panel.
