If you can put these users on an Exchange 2003 Server with Outlook 11, they
can run in cached mode, and may reduce your need to distribute Exchange
servers.

Subject: Best Practices for Exchange2K Implementation


Hi all,

We are a small company but spread out offices all around.

I wonder what would be a justified number of users (mailboxes) to host a
exchange server (Exchange 2K-SP3 )  in a remote office. Does anyone use MAPI
client over internet to connect to exchange server ? Are there any
recommended settings in Outlook (Outlook-2000) to minimize the network
traffic (specially for those who are on dial-up internet access) ?

I would really appreciate any feedback in this regard.

Thank you in anticipation,

Kishore

I'd suggest using a network to network VPN for the small offices - we do it
with Cisco PIX 506 firewalls, but most of our "small offices" are 25-40
people. Many of the $300-500 SOHO firewalls, and some of the even less
expensive ones, suppor that kind of functionality.

That also gives you a lot more control for supporting the offices.
