Local SMTP Server

I used IIS5.1 prior with the Virtual SMTP Server to send some internal mail. However, we've been upgraded to IIS7.5 and there is no SMTP Server for some reason Microsoft doesn't have a fit explanation for. Is there a comparable local SMTP Server that I could use (I only need send-only, not a full mail server, if that makes a difference)?

In short, you can still use IIS6 SMTP server on IIS7.5, or you can use a free smtp server alternative as listed below.

IIS6 SMTP:

Is the SMTP virtual server deprecated in IIS 7?
