Recommended post SP4 fixes for Exchange 5.5

  • Article

First of all, I want to let you know that I highly recommend that you run Exchange 2003 since the support date for Exchange 5.5 has already past (and 2003 rocks!), but since so many companies are still running 5.5 I wanted to forward you a list that I use. 

 

Some of these will require a call to PSS in order to get the fixes. As always, TEST these fixes in your test lab before deploying in your production environment.
