Upgrade in what respect? Hardware? OS? Exchange? Any other applications running on the box? Any bottlenecks with your current setup (processor, memory, disk, network...)? How hard do the users hit the box? Are the auto-emails for internal addresses or external addresses? Do you have an SMTP gateway or relay host?

I have read that the recommended disk configuration is a mirrored set for the operating system and logs and a RAID 5 array for the stores. Also I've looked around on Microsoft's site for hardware and configuration recommendations but anything that I've found seems incredibly inadequate. I was wondering if anyone has any better information on this. We have about 300 mailboxes and included in that are 100 mobile users who synchronize during the day. We also have auto emailing PC's that churn out about 1500 emails a day. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
