*error in title, should be: Sending Email Without A Server?
Does anyone know a program(s) that can send an email without the need of a SMTP server?
Also does anyone know of a email server type program. (pop3/smtp)
I prefer freeware (does not matter too much) and must run on windows.

You can use an anonymous remailer. There are also a few remailer programs like mixmaster that are not web based. Riot is another good web one. if you use a program instead of the web you need to keep your list updated with new servers.
It's not so much your sending it without an smtp server though. In a practical sense I can't think of any other way to send email besides using some type of smtp or esmtp mail server.
Serverwatch has a detailed list of mail servers for your second question.
You can also relay your email through your own server instead of your isp's. :)
