I believe Microsoft's plan all along has been to get org's to migrate PF's to SharePoint. That's what I remember during the pre-Exchange discussions.

I don't know how MS plans to get rid of them unless you can create 'ghost' mailboxes that can easily share out the data. From: Benjamin Zachary - Lists [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, July 11, 2009 6:34 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2007 PFs Most of my clients have been upgrading to Ex2007 and we were able to keep PF's. However, I just installed SBS2008 and didn't want to 'migrate' it because the server had several problems we didn't want to carry over. The only problem is they used PF's for a few things. A shared calendar, contacts and a mailbox where all the incoming faxes would get placed. Im looking at the room/equipment mailboxes but they don't look like they will fit the bill. Is the only way to do this to create a generic user then share out the contacts and calendar and make that the shared ones? Can the users be able to add those as a favorite and outlook address book?
