[OT] smtp server? and geovision

Hi all
after some collective knowledge here. I have geovision setup which works=20
fine, I have a perl app running so that when the doorbell is pressed it=20
does 5 consecutive "http gets" of the jpg for the door camera
(from=20
geovisions web server, spaced at a second apart)
what i have found is that the cam file on geovision doesnt appear to=20
update unless its being accessed so the first few images are normally=20
from the last time I accessed the file. - these get written off to be=20
put on a website.
What I had though of doing to get these pictures more reliable is to use=20
the email function of geovision (as this always gives good images) but=20
what i dont want to do is send them to my ISP and then retrieve them and=20
then save them to disk
Does anyone know if theres a free(ish) smtp server i could setup up on a=20
local machine (XP) that could receive these emails and extract the jpgs=20
and save off to HD
Or alternaltivly, another suitable option.
thanks in advance
Ade
