Exchange 2007 is here!

  • Article

It's the news we've all been waiting for - the dev team has signed off Exchange 2007, and it is now released to manufacturing!

We already have over 120,000 mailboxes in production here at Microsoft (with over 30,000 using Exchange Unified Messaging as their only voicemail solution), as well as over 55,000 mailboxes in production with our Rapid Deployment customers.

Without a doubt this is our biggest, most exciting and amazing release of Exchange ever.  Why?

  • Unified Messaging that delivers voice mail and fax messages to the Exchange inbox
  • Greater mobility support – for example, IT administrators can enforce security policies on mobile devices with greater control and granularity and end-users get full fidelity HTML mail
  • 64-bit architecture that allows organisations to increase the number of users per server or allow larger mailbox quotas while reducing per-mailbox storage costs
  • Anti-spam that ensures mail from your contacts gets through, while keeping the bad stuff out

Woohoo!
