Simple email forwarding server

Question

I need to forward emails for a several domains to other email addresses. Previously I have used hMailServer on my Windows server to perform this forwarding function, but I am looking for something simpler that I can interface with from a .NET application.

Is there a simple email forwarding server I can easily manage from .NET? Spam filtering or email storage is not required.

Define what you mean with *manage*. What do you want to do more than sending emails? — jgauffin, Dec 14 '10 at 12:30
@jgauffin, by manage I mean the CRUD of domains with corresponding forwarding addresses. — Petrus Theron, Dec 14 '10 at 12:36

I've never used hMailServer but according to the documentation there's a COM API that looks like it would be automation compatible (since they've got VBScript samples) so you should be able to access this from .Net.

I'd suggest looking at the Rule object or the forum

I knew about the COM API, but it feels...COMmy. Isn't there a simple forwarding server for .NET somewhere? – Petrus Theron Dec 15 '10 at 16:01
@FreshCode: Don't know I'm afraid. I'd suggest looking at codeproject.com to check if you can find an article about writing your own in some .Net language. – Hans Olsson Dec 15 '10 at 16:50
