I've been asked to look into killing the SMTP service. We are very heavy users

I'm having trouble isolating a FM, and there is not much on this issue in the
archives that I can see.
From what I can see, the SMTP server is critical to what we are doing with
XMITIP. But how would you 'block the port'?
Please, no Redbook referances.
Clues, anyone?
