C# Email Server
The C# Mail Server is a C# port of the Java Email Server (JES). JES is an established email server targeted at small centrally maintained installations. The C# Mail Server runs on Windows .NET 1.1 and Mono.
CSES is a project to provide the same feature set to the .NET platform. However, in addition to the features of JES, CSES provides individual reusable components that other applications can use to provide email functionality.
The current release of CSES provides the SMTP Server component. This component allows a program to accept incoming emails and process them using user defined logic.
The current release of CSES does not implement a full SMTP/POP3 email server. However, these features are expected to be provided in upcoming releases.
