RE: Exchange 2010 RTM?
I think you're right about that. The fact that no major investments in ease of use for the on premises solution always indicated to me that Exchange Online was the future for small and mid-sized businesses for Exchange. Big shops can afford Exchange teams who do that all the time -- so their invesment in dealing with PS ins't quite as onerous. The big push is to drive smaller shops to Online, which from my experience, isn't too bad.

I think maybe you're at a point similar to where I am. We're an exchange 2003 shop, currently. I'm thinking really hard about pushing for a hosted exchange.

RE: Outlook Anywhere - Externally
Hi James, If you want to use Integrated auth on the RPC/HTTP site, you'll need to configure the firewall to use Kerberos Constrained Delegation, since if you're using FBA at the firewall's Web listener you can't delegated NTLM, and fallback to basic on that listener will only support basic delegation.

In all so far I have moved about 120 gig of mailboxes to the other server but I do not see that space coming back on the first server. I do run the online maintenance of the databases that is built inside of the system manager. I also get emails nightly on what was done. Below is one that I got last night. I was under the impression that Exchange would clean itself up after the moves and allow the database to shrink after it ran the maintenance. Do I have something set wrong or is my thinking wrong.
