Angus, Why two servers? How big is your environment?

I'll be using two, non-clustered servers in a single organisation, with mailbox resources shared between the two. Data stores will be on my SAN. Presumably each server will have its' own databases? As you can tell, I'm pretty new to all this. I've used multiple Ex 5.5 servers for migration purposes in the past but that was a while ago. Thanks gents. -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Basically: If you are going to do clustering, you need enterprise. If you need the X.400 connector, you need enterprise. If you need multiple mailstores per server, you need enterprise. If you need a mailstore larger than 75 GB, you need enterprise. Otherwise, standard should do just fine. -----Original Message----- From: Angus Macdonald [mailto:Angus.Macdonald@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, January 11, 2006 10:56 AM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] Exchange 2003 server editions http://www.MSExchange.org/ I am looking at replacing an old clustered Exchange 5.5 server (active/passive) with a pair of Exchange 2003 servers with the mailbox and other resources split between them. To have more than one server in a single organistaional unit, do I need the standard or Enterprise edition of 2003? The comparison on the MS website doesn't make it clear (to me at least - I'm not a mail specialist).
