Matt's Exchange Server Page                                        


I will start by apologising for the information overload, however I thought it necessary to put all the information I have gathered on Exchange Server in one spot.

I use these links to help present the 2400 Exchange Server 2003 course I deliver
I hope you find all of this useful.  Cheers  Matt.

    Testing SMTP and Mail Servers

Drop E-Mail Test

You can pop a text file in the mail pick up directory. The SMTP server will grab the file and deliver it for you.
By default the MS Exchange 2000 Server pickup Directory is located in:
C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi 1\PickUp

Click here to download an example drop email file.

    Exchange Server 2007

    Exchange Server 2007 32Bit Version Information

Upgrading Exchange Server 2007 Evaluation Software to Full Product
You can upgrade your server running Exchange Server 2007 evaluation software to full product at the end of the 120 day evaluation period with your product key.

Is this thing on - Exchange 2007 Platforms, Editions, Product Keys and Versions

For lab, demo and test environments, unless you have a valid reason for rebuilding the environment, or unless you just love our new Setup wizard so much that you just can't stop uninstalling and installing server roles, I recommend that you get used to dealing with the expiration nag dialog, and not rebuild your servers every 120 days. Either way, the choice is yours, but again, you won't lose any functionality when running on an expired Trial Edition.
What's Missing from the 32-bit Version?
There are some things that are not available in the 32-bit version:
1. Automatic Anti-spam updates from Windows Updates. Only a licensed 64-bit version will be able to get automatic anti-spam updates from Microsoft Update.
2. Storage groups and databases. You can have a maximum of 5 databases per server in as many as 5 storage groups on the 32-bit version.

Software Needed for Install:
