Source: SMTPSVC
Event Id:115
Description:
The service could not bind instance 1. The data is the error code.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
Data

the only way I can get the SMTP working is by running a
iisreset /stop
then start the simple mail transfer protocol
after that run a
iisreset /start
and the system works until the next restart.
