Like I said, no, it isn't possible. &nbsp;You need Exchange or another email server.

I recently setup a Mail Server on my Server 2003 but I find  myself finding out that I have configure Windows Mail or Outlook Express on every machine in order to see the emails. 

Is there a way to setup a web email so that  I do not have manually setup each account on a workstation or laptop? 

Is there a way to setup a web email account on Server 2003 without using Exchange Server?

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.

Email Protocols

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
