Yes. You can do it on Azure. I set Exchange up once as a test "just because".
(You can probably do it on S3, I simply have never done it.) I would suggest that going to Best Buy and picking up a $600 desktop with 8 GB RAM would be a better investment of your dollars. Install Win8, Server2012 or Server2008R2 and run Hyper-V on it. Far easier.

In my previous employer, I had access to spare hardware and was able to build a nice little lab with a few virtual domain controllers and an Exchange environment. My current employer doesn't have spare hardware, so with Exchange and Lync 2013 soon to be RTM'd, I was thinking about an Exchange lab in the cloud. Is this even possible? My employer is willing to pay on reasonable monthly charges for cloud services, but I'm not familiar with the cloud other than hearing about Amazon's services. Is it technically possible to build a VM environment in the cloud assuming I provide the Microsoft ISOs? --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com<mailto:listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com> with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
