Also one should not forget high availability and fault tolerant configuration  
which is trivial to organize with Lotus Notes replication  - you can have mail 
db on any number of servers.
With MS Exchange the only alternative is clustering but it is a pain in the a..

Not sticking to Notes nor M$ - but I really appreciate a professional answer to 
this (never ending) discussion.
... And once again: it's not allways "the system" ...

Actually, that is a little bit unfair towards Notes.

Because this is an area where it really beats the pants right of MSExchange.
I remember quite well, that you have a checkbox under "Exceptions" for "Do not 
send out vacation messages to the internet", which is something that I'm still 
missing in Exchange.  Furthermore you can specify subjects that it should not 
reply to, and since all our internal e-mail lists had the format [foo-ig] or 
[foobar-an], putting something along the line of "-an], -ig]" in that field, 
and you wouldn't even spam internal lists. That was really cool, and possible 
back even in versions like the craptasticly crashing-prone
5.0.2 that was foisted on us by lazy admins.

Cheers,
