Tried calling Microsoft Sales twice to see if I can get some info on this
and have not gotten a call back yet, since I know there are some Microsoft
bigwig's that are members of this list I thought maybe you could help me
out. The questions I have are: Is this a special program or do you have to
enroll in the Premier or Essential support plan?  How much does it cost? 

I know we should have started our migration already but things move very
sloooooow out here in California....like dude/dudette surfs up....


This is the link for this.

The end of 2005, signals the end of support for Exchange Server 5.5, and we
strongly encourage you to plan your upgrade today.  However, customers
facing large scale migrations that need additional time to complete their
migrations will have the option to enroll in a for-fee, Custom Support
program beginning on Jan. 1, 2006.  There will be two years of Custom
Support available for Exchange Server 5.5 customers.  Custom Support will
end on December 31, 2007.  Microsoft will charge a flat fee for the Custom
Support program, regardless of the size of the Exchange deployment.  The
Custom Support program will provide enrolled customers with security updates
at no additional charge for vulnerabilities that Microsoft classifies as
'Critical' or "Important" in nature.  It will also provide enrolled
customers with non-security hot-fixes and per incident phone support.
Customers not enrolled in Custom Support will NOT be eligible for security
updates, non-security hot-fixes or per incident phone support.
