Still, it would be good to know that putting the mail store on a SAN is approved.

Used to be most NAS was not usable for exchange, it would have to be DASD or SAN ( FC or iSCSI ). Just mapping as a network attached drive is unsupported. ( I think NetApp had a MS widget that made their NAS supportable ) Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event !

Very little junk gets through. Heck, it’s at least as good as SpamCop, which I use for my personal email. J Any other comments on Google, specifically, or hosted email in general? Main reason we want to bring email in house is because so many of our users have smart phones and they have trouble getting them to work with our hosted email. Also, we get charged based on the size of the mailbox, for disk space and I want to get rid of that… if we put the mail store on the storage appliance I’m looking at, we should have plenty of space to work with.

We are a Notes shop. We are strongly considering going to a hosed -er- hosted Exchange service (once we find someone who can import our current Domino set-up and provide the proper guarantees). Lots of arguments in favor of the hosted service. Are you aware that Google owns Postini? Anyway, for spam filtering, many things get through our Postini filters and into our Notes mailboxes. These same spam messages get snagged and sent to the "spam" box in GMail. That is, the spam filtering in GMail seems to be better than for Postini. -- Richard D.
