The bases for the advice of not putting Exchange on a DC are that:
1. it will complicate disaster recovery, and
2. performance will suffer.

The second reason doesn't apply in your case, but the first one does.  If I
were you, I would put in a couple of cast-off desktops with some added
memory as your domain controllers and leave Exchange on a member server.
Also, I would be sure that I have a recovery server.

Subject: Exchange installed on BDC


I know it is not a good practice to have Exchange 5.5 installed on a domain
controller, but I only have 30 exchange users.  I want to know if anyone has
a bad experience or a horror story about this setup before I proceed. or any
advice is appreciated.

Thanks
Ghassan
