Can I install an E-Mail router on a computer without a server?

Question
-
Hi,
I need to route E-mails from the organization's E-mail adress in to a queue in the
CRM Online account that I have, also to route mails to queues inside the CRM.
The problem is that the organization don't have any kink of server in use.
Can I use one of the office computers as an E-mail router? with only Exchange and other application compatible?
Thank you,
Yoav

Yes, you can. The router can be installed on a Windows 7 machine.
You can install the E-mail Router and Rule Deployment Wizard on any computer that is running one of the following operating systems, and that has network access to both Microsoft Dynamics CRM and the e-mail server:
- Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit editions
- Windows Server 2008 (x64 versions) or Windows Server 2008 R2
