That said, should we upgrade to Exchange 2000 or 2003? I've read some things about them, but all I've really gotten is words like "scalability and manageability." What specifics do you know about the differences between the two? Do you think, based on the size of our network, that we really need to upgrade? >> CLICK here for Scott Schnoll's expert response: http://searchwin2000.techtarget.com/ateQuestionNResponse/0,289625,sid1_cid564823_tax285117,00.html?track=NL-123 Want more tips like this one?
