Actually, I didn’t know that. I know that Sean is down that way, but for some reason I thought you were in the UK. :-P

That is probably the problem that the tech was referring to. First time I have heard of a product requiring Exchange 2010 SP2 rollup 1 as well - particularly considering it hasn't even gone out on Microsoft Update yet, so we are in the window between release and Microsoft being sure it is good and sending it out automatically.

Yeah, sure... And MS has not seen it, but he has? Don't you think it would be pulled if it were possibly bad? I'd also hazard to suggest that MS may have installed it one or three times more than he has? > Are there some things I could do before running SP2 R1 that would minimize > the chances of this happening!?
