One of the setup reqirements for AppFuse is an SMTP server. By far the easiest and most reliable way to configure AppFuse is to have an SMTP service running on {{localhost}}. This isn't much of a problem for some operating systems where an SMTP server is installed by default (like many Linux distrobutions), but for new AppFuse users running Windows it has been a recurring issue. So here are a few options you have for installing an SMTP server for your operating system:

\\%%note __NOTE:__ It is important that if you set up the SMTP server that comes with IIS, to turn on relaying capabilities in order for email to be routed correctly within AppFuse. To do this, follow these steps:

# Open the SMTP properties window

## Access by clicking Start

## Control Panel

## Administrative Tools

## Internet Information Services

## Expand the domain you use for appfuse

## and right click on the Default SMTP Virtual Server

# Click the Access tab

# Click the Relay button to bring up the Relay Restrictions window

# Select the radio option for "Only the list below"

# Click the Add button to add access to a particular domain or group

# If using the localhost as your SMTP server as previously suggested, make sure you add 127.0.0.1 here so that the localhost can properly relay mail.

# Finally, click OK, Apply, and OK to save your changes.

Also note that if you're behind a firewall or router, you may need to open ports 25 and 2525.%%
