Here's a hint perhaps to solving mailing in Winodws.

I solved the mailing issues by adding MailEnable Standard to a Windows box.
Strong advantage: 1) It's Free 2) It is a fully functional mail server for 
Windows
3) Why think of formatting messages when its done by the server and it 
handles all security,
relay blocks and more after a minor setup period of about an hour.

You can check it out at www.mailenable.com and help is but a forum post 
away in http://forum.mailenable.com
In fact it works great on the same box as Xitami too.
