Probably agree with your comment on your last line :-) Journalling may be another option, or perhaps each excahnge mailbox has an alternate recipient that is a mailbox on the linux server??
Would not cached outlook give them similar feature to what they have now? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brett Fernicola Sent: Wednesday, 14 November 2007 06:35 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange advanced SMTP Configuration ? The copy of email on the pop3 linux host is for backup and failsafe purposes, these users right now do not want to switch to exchange because they fear failure is destined on the exchange server. They want to be able to fall back to the hosting provider they already pay for incase exchange goes down. They also do not have an exchange admin, but they do have the hardware and bandwidth in place. Since the pop3 is so cheap they don't mind paying them for this type of backup and service until they feel they can manage exchange. However they are interested in exchange because they want to be able to share calendars and inbox's etc, which means using exchange. So what will happen right now with the current setup is their pop3 and exchange accounts will all have the same exact email except for any emails sent from outlook via exchange to another user in the company. This mail sees the smtp address in AD and sends the mail to the storage group. So if exchange fails and they have to temporarily switch profiles to pop3 they will be missing all the emails the users sent to each other. Can anyone think of any solution to this problem, or am I nuts for even trying. ********************************************************************** Have you clicked on yet? www.nrc.govt.nz ********************************************************************** NORTHLAND REGIONAL COUNCIL This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
