2) Outlook 2003 with Exchange 2010 workaround. Pro's & Con's.
3) Outlook 2007 with Exchange 2010 (baseline).

Question of the Month

What Microsoft tool is used to perform an overall topology readiness scan of your environment (e.g. AD, existing Exchange configuration, etc) to highlight problems for rolling out Exchange 2010?

 

Answer to previous Question of the Month:

Q) For Exchange 2007, what needs to be backed up for Transport and Edge Servers?

A) This is a trick question. Backup the server as you would normally do to protect it from OS failure. But nothing special is required from an Exchange point of view (e.g. databases, transaction logs, etc).
