Group Policy?? That would required changing to Active Directory.... This is for us old fashioned NT4 domain people.

You can disable the Messenger service via Group Policy as well. Then, you don't have to worry about missing a server.

This was a great string. Very useful. I will be disabling the messenger service on all server too. Thanks again.

Do you send popup messages as alerts? Even the Monitoring notifications from Exchange send out e-mail alerts (though one could argue the usefulness of that feature) or scripts (which require an executable to be specified). Neither one uses the Messenger service, though I suppose you could configure your script to use that. I would say that it is best to not have your Exchange server monitoring itself. Put a monitoring package on a server with the SMTP service installed and use that to send out your alerts.

He's kidding. Eric? You're kidding, right??? Eric??? Seriously though, I'd disable that service. It's part of my standard build procedures for all servers (there is no reason that you need to send popup messages to/from servers) and it does not affect anything else.
