smtp virtual server not available ?

Hi All:

I am using IIS on .net 2003 server. I was having a problem when starting
SMTP service . The error it was throwing was "The Specified module could not
be found" so I reinstalled SMTP service and that worked okay ..mean I was
able to start SMTP service
but NOW

in my IIS manager I do not see any SMTP virtual server neither when I right
click it there is no option to create a new "SMTP Virtual Server" in the new
menu option....

tried again reinstalling but it didn't help....what going on....any ideas..?

are there any command line tools which can accomplish the same task....would
appreciate any pointers....?

-TIA

Run:
regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\smtpsnap.dll

Also, are you on Windows .NET Server 2003 or Windows Server 2003? .NET
Server 2003 expired on April 24th and you are no longer allowed to use it.
