Title: Message
You should be fine, this is exactly the way I have our 3 remote offices set up - T1's w/VPN tunnel to our corporate Exchange server, with about 15-20 users in each remote office.  The only exception is our UK office, which has its own Exchange server, but this was more of a business decision than a logistical one.
 
The only complaint I get occurs when someone in one of the remote offices gets a large attachment in their Inbox (several MB worth)...although with enough patience they will eventually open.  Almost inevitably it is an MP3, or MPEG that one of their co-workers has sent them.  This a very good way to get users in the habit of sending links, instead of attachments - I should send all my (l)users to the remote offices for a few months each year.

Subject: MAPI over T1

 

I have two offices running Exchange 2000/Windows 2000. Right now they are connected via a VPN over the T1 pipes. We are preparing to open two new offices each with a vpn to corporate via the T1. There are about 30 users at site A and site B each with exchange site connected. I was thinking the two new locations would have enough bandwidth to use MAPI instead of POP over the t1 vpn. Probably 15-20 users from remote to connect to either siteA or siteB. Overall users is about 75.

 

Any suggestions on bandwidth requirements? I dont think I need an e2k server at each location for 15-20 users.

 

Thanks
