Hi,

I didn't know Argosoft stopped releasing the Freeware version :-S

You can find the old one, with, btw, doesn't need .NET framework at 
archive.org:

I can't guarantee to work in newer OS versions (over XP and newer),
because I never tested, but should without problems.

The only limitation I can recall on this freeware version is in the 
file size (5MB) and in the retries between relay errors.

But you have to be aware when using a mail server that, thanks to 
Spamhaus, you need a static IP or almost all SMTPs out there will 
block your server to accept mail from (including Gmail).

Regards.

P.S.: you can find several versions in archive.org, just select other
dates.
