I am the administrator for a domain of a larger governmental forest.  The
group responsible for the forest has decided on a very long roll out of
Exchange 2K/2K3 for themselves and the domains they directly administer.

My domain has already installed and moved all users to a Exchange 2K server
in the Administrative Group that represents our Exchange 5.5 Site.  I would
like to remove our final Exchange 5.5 server from our AG/Domain, but
obviously still need to route messages to other Exchange 5.5 users in the
forest and its other subdomains.  The Forest level Exchange Admins take is
for me to just leave our Exchange 5.5 server running so that the site
connector and ADC agreement can take care of all the replication.

In my mind that is inefficient use of hardware and maintenance.  I would
like to replace the old Exchange 5.5 "Site Connector" with a Routing Group
Connector? And uninstall the Exchange 5.5 server.  They have agreed to allow
us to try this (with their assistance), but have no experience with how it
will behave.

Can anyone give me some pointers?  At what point would I remove the ADC
Agreements and uninstall the old server?

Thanks for any info you can provide!

Bob Reasoner
