I would say the best info is from the horse's mouth: http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/techinfo/deployment/2000/BestConfig.asp http://www.microsoft.com/Exchange/techinfo/default.asp
The job aids here are good templates for presenations: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/itsolutio ns/guide/jobaidhl.asp It is all but impossible to recommend policies without more intimate knowledge of your business (remote vs local users, etc), willingness to educate users, and future growth plans, etc. William -----Original Message----- From: Pelfrey, Paul [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 5:59 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: A Clean Slate for E2K! Q's... Hello All, During my stay at my previous employer administrating a global Exch5.5 Org around the world I learned a lot about what I didn't like as far as policy/procedure/implementation of an Exchange Implementation and this list was a great help overcoming some of the issues of integrating acquired companies systems into our own... Now I have changed jobs and have a clean slate with a new E2K implementation with users being migrated from disparate Lotus Notes/CCMail/Exch5.5 environment to a single environment. I have the duty to write and help implement policies on various topics including PublicFolder usage & heirarchy, PST and mail retention policies, smtp naming standards and such. I've been checking the FAQ and archives of this list but would appreciate URLs of any other resources I can tap to help me write these policies. I hate to reinvent the wheel since I'm sure most of this stuff is out there somewhere. Are there also any good books on this topic? __________________________________ Paul E.
