RE: Keeping large PST's open
Title: Message This does not use up network resources assuming the pst is on her local hard drive. As long as the user understands that local drives are not backed up, and that if the file is lost its gone forever, it should not be a problem. -Original Message-From: Bill Dodd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Monday, April 22, 2002 2:37 PMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: Keeping large PST's open I have a user that keeps her mail in seevral large pst's in her home directory then open's them as personal folders in Outllook. I looked at her files and she has almost 350 Mb of PST's. In the past users have been allowed to have a 100mb limit on thier exchange mailbox, which should be plenty if it is not used as a filling system. As a new administrator I feel un-easy about her doing this, and she is showing evryone she runs into how to do it also. It seems to me like this will eat a huge amount of Network resources.

RE: Watchout 5.5 SP4 Migration Issues to 2000 SP2
No, what i mean is that we have not been able to successfully join a exchange 2000 server to a site running exchange 5.5 sp4 in our lab environment. If we wipe everything out, and redo our lab setup and instead install sp3 on exchange 5.5 everything is fine. Same scenerio with sp4 and all kinds of problems occur. We have ran thru this procedue 3 times with sp4 and three times with sp3 ( wiping everything out and starting over each time) and success only occurs with sp4. I was really only posting this as information since I have not found it documented. -Original Message- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 08, 2002 10:52 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Watchout 5.5 SP4 Migration Issues to 2000 SP2 The upgrade path is not reversible [1].

AD Design Question as it relates to Exchange 2000
I am wanting some advice about different directions we could take in the structure of DNS and AD as it relates to a migration from Exchange 5.5 to 2000. Our current structure is a singe domain called Assembly. Our Exchange 5.5 server services email sent to legislature.state.tn.us. Should we : A. Make root DNS Domain, and AD Root Legislature.state.tn.us? This will give us an AD Domain name of legislature.state.tn.us and a legacy domain name of assembly. This seems like the easy route, but I hate that the legacy domain name is different than the new domain name. B. Make the root DNS Domain, and AD Root Assembly.state.tn.us? Will this cause problems with email server since it service email sent to Legislature.State.Tn.US? This Email server also serves as the Exchange Server that users login to. It seems like this route will require some major restructuring of email system. Thanks, Alan List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

RE: AD Design Question as it relates to Exchange 2000
Could you give examples of your domain structure... How do your clients reach a Exchange server Named mail.sunbelt-software.com if they are on domain whatever if domain whatever is different. Do you just have an entry on your DNS server for mail.sunbest-software.com ?
