It most certainly does NOT need to be W2K native prior to E2K native. You can have W2K mixed/E2K mixed, W2K native/E2K mixed, W2K Mixed/E2K Native or W2K Native/E2K Native. Obviously there are benefits to being W2K native before the switch to E2K native but there are no pre-requisites. -----Original Message----- From: Rory Grobler [mailto:groblerr@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 14 April 2003 15:04 To: [ExchangeList] http://www.MSExchange.org/ Greetings Tell me if i understand this correctly??
