RE: SpamBelt
Hi Guys, We admit that this looked like spam a lot. I actually called the people who sent it for us and complained. The company who own this database and emailed it for us are MSD2D, they have worked for years for Microsoft building their trade show list and catalogs. That's why you are on their list. Here is included the answer from their Pres, who explained why it looks like this. - In response to your email today I admit that it has the appearance of Spam. We apologize for that. We usually send these type of announcements with our reply address but it was a last minute mailer and we had already use our regular mail box for our weekly Security newsletter. It was important that we get that notice out to people who we thought might be attending Tech-Ed as Sunbelt was accidentally left out of a proper position in the Microsoft Exchange Directory. David Cragg President - Understandably you assumed it was spam, with a juno address as the sender. Turns out this -is- what they use for their returns. An unfortunate choice to say the least.

RE: Real world experience
Not sure I know enough about your environment to speak definitively to your scenario, though I've seen similar things done with great success. I will however offer this bit of advice, more GCs = Good. With 2 GCs for Exchange, failure of 1 puts entirely too much stress on the remaining server for 5k users. Although performance is supposed to be improved for GC queries in W2K3, I have no hard numbers to draw from and like to reduce SPOFs (Single Points of Failure) so I'd still suggest more than 2.

We're looking at an Exchange 2K3 rollout and probably a hybrid AD using MS's meta directory (maybe). The real question is I am looking for real world experience with something similar to what we are going to from a Exchange 2K shop. Essentially we'll be looking at 5,000 users (.5 GB per mailbox) to start with another 5,000 in phase 2 and 5,000 more in phase 3. With a new 2K3 AD, we'll probably consider at least 2 DC's and one dedicated server for OWA. The main mail servers and storage is really the number cruncher. It's looking like a 3 server cluster and external storage (AV also has to be factored). All client stations will be on at least 10 if not 100 switched lines, GB speed on the WAN backbone.

At the expo yesterday someone from MS approached me and asked me why I found it necessary to cross out Tech Ed on my shirt. He seemed to think I made this shirt up just for myself and not that it was a group shirt and was quite dismayed. As if this was my personal political statement. I told him it was given to me at a party for a group of Exchange admins; not a personal vendetta, etc. Of course, I said, as long as you are here I am disappointed you canceled MEC and don't disagree with the back of the shirt. And went on with my grievances . . . :) In the end he thanked me! :) Chris - Original Message - From: Stephen Mynhier [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 06, 2003 11:02 AM Subject: Friday Haiku What have I learned here?

RE: Archiving Solutions
KVS and AttachStor are technologies worth looking at. www.mail-resources.com has a number of other 3rd party tools listed in the web links | server | archival section I believe. -Original Message- From: Carmila Fresco [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Friday, June 06, 2003 3:02 PM Posted To: swynk Conversation: Archiving Solutions Subject: Archiving Solutions Does anyone have any experience with archiving solutions like veritas storage migrator for exchange? We currently do not impose hard limits on our users due to a lot of regulations that we need to comply with. We have users who have mailboxes close to 3GB. On one exchange server that has 180 users, the total size of the store is already at a 110GB. I'm interested to know what solutions you have in place to keep down the size of user's mailboxes.

RE: Deleting Global address book
Frigging Lyris... Delete the users and the views will go away automatically. Views only exist for the criteria for which they were created. When valid objects fit the criteria there is no way to remove the object other than deleting the objects which meet the criteria or changing the criteria. -Original Message- From: suriya suriya suriya [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Posted At: Monday, June 02, 2003 1:12 AM Posted To: swynk Conversation: RE: Deleting Global address book Subject: Re: RE: Deleting Global address book All receipents of those unused servers.
