Recommendation needed for email function in a webhosting server

[GD]

Hi,
I have a server box in a webhosting company. This server is used to host our
websites(two asp.net applications currently). In the web applications, a
simple email function is needed to send emails to the administrator of the
apps. The administrator's email address should be like this:
admin@applicationdomain.com. Thus, I need to create a few email accounts for
retrieving emails from the web apps or any senders and sending emails from
Outlook Express. My questions are:
1). Can this be done without installing Exchange Server? Or SMTP and Mail
Server POP3 will do it?
2). If Exchange Server is not needed, what are the incoming mail server and
outgoing server addresses if I setup an email account in Outlook Express.
3). What is your suggestion/recommendation?

Thanks.

They will have an SMTP server you can use for sending email - just ask them
for the details.

For everything else, see

Andrew,

Thanks for quick reply.

The webhosting service is cheap. They are not responsible for any email
services.

Is there any possibility that I can setup the email functions in the same
server without Exchange Server?

Thanks.

Just for clarification: your web hosting company does not include any email
addresses? What about the company that you have your domain name registered
with? Usually you'll get at least one address with either of those.

I mean that the hosting company doesn't allow the clients to use the hosting
company's email server in client apps if the clients have installed their
onwn dedicated servers in the hosting company.
