I've got most everything working now in XAMPP, but I'm not quite sure about how\where to configure the email server.
Does XAMPP come with a fully fledged email server - SMTP?
If so, how do I configure it to send\receive\host email?
If not, what sorts of open source email servers are out there? I have a domain, and run my own server, vista platform want to host this (don't have an external SMTP account, and don't want to use one).
Has anyone done anything like this?

thanks

Does XAMPP come with a fully fledged email server

See "readme_en.txt": Mercury Mail Transport System

If so, how do I configure it to send\receive\host email?

Start "Mercury" in the control panel and hit on "Admin".

Thank you Wiedmann.
