I would like to have some advice about a decision I have to make concerning the email functionality.  I have my own dedicated server which host several dnn portals (only 1 DNN instance). For the email functionality I see 2 options : install a smtp server (exchange maybe) on my dedicated server and let DNN use this one or I can try to find a hosting email server which I can let my DNN talks to (off course I have to pay for the last option).  Which one will be the best (to avoid as much problems as possible) (I’m an experience .net developer and learn fast new technologies but I’ not a administrator and I’m also not planning to become one).  Another question is how DNN handles the different portals concerning the different emails. I understand how it handles the different URL’s so that the correct portal is chosen.  Will the email work the same way ? What I mean is that if a user get’s a email from portal 1 will then the email address of portal 1 be shown or for portal 2 off course portal 2’s email address ?
Thank for your time and hopefully for your answer
Benny
