I think there may be a misconception here! We are talkinga bout the Calibre Content Server (not the Calibre server on the internet) which is part of the Calibre software running on your PC. This allows Calibre to act as a server to software such as Stanza so that Stanza can obtain a catalog of the books in your Stanza library and then request the ones you pick to be downloaded to Stanza on the iPhone.

Whether the Calibre Content Server is run or not is configured under Caliber Preferences->Content Sertver. However as was said earlier you will need this to be running to enable the transfer of books between Stanza and Calibre.
