Makes sense, I've only used exchange from an admin angle as a small company
with less than 100 users. Where I work now thankfully I only touch network
elements.

Hi,
We did that for around 5 years - start off with Sendmail, then move to a
different Exchange clone as the business grew. We ended up with Scalix,
which was a Linux email server which did a lot of what Exchange did. The
issue with these products is that they are always one step behind what MS
are doing with Exchange, for example, none of these Exchange clones yet have
Sharepoint integration.
Also, if you are involved with any MS licensing programme and have several
users on the programme, you will find that Exchange gets lobbed in with all
the other apps, so it becomes more expensive to use something different
(like Communigate or Scalix).
Sad but unfortunately true.
Andrew.

Yes, run Sendmail.;)
That or Comunigate if you really need all that meeting / calendering
nonsense.

Folks,
This is on behalf of a good friend, who's been thrown in at the deep end.
I've no current experience in Exchange, other than high-level sys admin
account management.
Any suggestions?
Hi B,
So basically i have like 16 mailboxes that have been exported from
exchange2003 using exmerge. i currently have them all stored on a hard drive
as .pst files but i need them imported into exchange 2007. Problem is i dont
think i can use the powershell cos i am using the 64bit OS - exmerge dosent
want to run at all on exchange 2007.
There are also quite alot of custom folders etc within the .pst's as well.
