Re: What is SMTP?
SMTP, or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, is a method for transferring emails from one system to another. As such, it exists on mainframes, servers, PCs (if configured for it), and so forth. SFTP, FTP, SMTP are all functions of TCP/IP (the protocol underlying most Internet communications these days).
