I was speaking to Commvault today, only a quick chat with a new account manager. He was saying that the mailbox agent still lets you do incremental backups rather than having to do a full store backup, and a full mailbox backup each night.
I'm going to read the literature, at the moment the Exchange 2003 docs take priority, but it certainly does look/sound a lot smarter than any bricks level stuff that I've heard of.
