In the past MS has required the purchase of additional licenses for
non-production standby servers. I've heard MS now allows for "dark" servers
without additional licensing costs (for both the OS and Exchange). Does
anyone know of a link that confirms this or does it just apply to companies
with SA agreements?

Niel,

I don't think Microsoft approves having a server without licences, You can
call Microsoft support to ask for licencing requirements and to provide you
with information on paper or mail.

Niel / Erwin,

Microsoft does approve this as part of the SA-Benefits....
(http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/programs/sa/benefits/cold_backup.mspx)

So you really need to think of getting SA! :)

Brgds,
