Everytime I restart my server, my SMTP Virtual Server stops. There have been a number of times where I've forgotten to start it again and I've caused a number of problems for the sites I am hosting.
Is this correct behaviour in Windows Server 2008, and is there any way in which I can stop this from happening?
Thanks in advance.
