Overheard at TechEd from a non-MS Weasel...

"Exchange 2003 RC1 is more stable than Exchange 2000 SP3"

HP will back that sentiment up as well...

Think of Exchange 2003 as a patch to Exchange 2000 as Exchange 5.5 was for
Exchange 5.0...

I agree, especially with the Road Warriors comment.

Unfortunately, we don't have any road warriors for the City, as we allow OWA
to be used, and the connection speed for that is just fine for everyone; or
so they say.

I will probably wait to upgrade to Exchange 2003 for at least a year, let
everyone else work out the bugs :)

What would these do that your current system doesn't do (easy enough to
figure out) that you will need / want to do in future (not so easy)?

How important is continued support from Microsoft to you? Do you have a
lot of road warriors or people on remote sites with relatively slow
links?

Are you running Windows 2000 or 2003 active directory? If so then it
makes good sense not to have to maintain 2 user directories and
upgrading to a newer version of exchange would enable this.
