If you intend to use your system in production you should enter your Exchange Server 2007 product key within that 120 day period (preferably before your system goes into production). You can […]
A corrupt Sender Reputation database may cause Exchange Server 2007 Transport service to stop.
Project Coconut is underway and the first bit of action is getting the environment up to the pre-requisites for Exchange Server 2007. The existing environment is Active Directory in Windows 2000 Native Mode, with Windows 2000 Server domain controllers, and an Exchange 2000 Server organisation also running on Windows 2000 Server member servers.

This is something that was pretty easy in Exchange 2003, but suddenly made a lot more complicated and less obvious in Exchange 2007. A bunch of home brew solutions came about some time after Exchange 2007 was released […]
Some time ago I wrote about my experience recovering a customer’s Active Directory from a USN Rollback condition that had been caused by some virtualisation work. There has been some discussion in the comments in that post about what to do when you have a single domain controller that thinks it is in a USN […]
