WIN2000 - The service is runing but shows stopped in MMC, when I try to
start it, won't start error msg is:

(The service could not bind instance 1.)

Some other process is listening on the configured port (by default, SMTP
listens on port 25). Do you have any other program listening on port 25?

(You can use netstat.exe to check)
