As others have pointed out, you don't need a server-class machine for a recovery server. For that matter, I have never needed to use a recovery server. Why? I use the Ed Crowley(tm) Never Restore(c) Method(sm)! For full details on this method, send 150 Euros and an unused thong to the address at

I imagine it would only be useful against ethical spammers. There is no such thing. Those spamming lists of "guaranteed" addresses won't remove bad addresses because then they have fewer to sell. Plus, they don't care. Those buying the lists generally don't care either, and/or don't know how to

Or possibly notifications are not making it across the wire. I would not be surprised if the UDP notifications were getting dropped. If you click on "Send/Receive" while the connection is "dropped" does the session re-establish? If so, one thing you could try is setting the clients to work offlin

Typically you'll see one directory for the administrative Web service, one for the OWA service, and one for the stash of MP3s that some 4axx0r in Colombia is running off your server. Look in the MMC to see if you can identify three separate sites. Alternately, browse the log files in each director

Sorry Mr. Joyce, I don't agree. Commercial email (unsolicited or not) is coming into his domain, but he is not relaying. Instead, the spammers are sending to invalid addresses within his domain and using invalid (or unresolvable) return addresses. So: 1) Spam comes in. 2) Exchange tries to bounce

Nate - you might want to get onto your Exchange server and telnet to port 25 of Earthlink's listed MX. If you can walk through an SMTP conversation with their server then the problem is with your Exchange server or firewall. If they are denying you access for some reason it may also appear in this
