Hi Nic,

>servlet container does all the network stuff, such as listening to the
port

I have doubt now.Is it Servlet container or web server, which one listens on
port?
As far as i know it is web server.
I think there is a big difference between web server and servlet engine.
 If i am wrong or want to add more stuff regarding this,please do it ASAP.

Servlets don't really participate in the network environment. The
 and dispatching requests to particular servlets.

You probably don't understand the architecture, I suggest you read
some of the introductory material there is around:

>Can we develop mail server components using Servlets???

No.
