Exchange and Imail |
|
|
I work at a school district and we use Imail for Email. All staff uses the
webmail portion for sending and recieving. However our administration at all
school sites use Outlook 2000 and They use the Calender sharing module with
their secretaries. Im a site tech and not a district tech so i probably will
not get invloved with the install but I do know they purchased exchange and
it will run on a 2k server. From what they told me they dont want to
integrate it into active directory...
The ultimate goal is to use imail accounts for email and the exchange server
for calender sharing. But they only want one Personal Folder not 2... Can
this be achieved? Thanks in advance Art..

Exchange must be installed in an AD domain....it can't operate without it.
It sounds like you (or someone) may need to get more information on the
overall plan for this. Who's in charge of the project? |

A district Nettech is in charge of implementations. He has never installed or
played with exchange before. I have installed and maintained before in nt 4.0
but not in an ad domain. Im hoping that the district sr analyst gets
involved. Thats all up to them. The portion thats going to effect me is
supporting it locally for my admin. I just basically want to know if imail
and exchange can work with only one personal folder file. At my last company
they had exchange 5.5 and imail in two different personal folders and their
was always confusion of people putting schedules or contacts in wrong file....

This is a much larger and complicated issue and if they don't plan things
right from the outset, expect problems. As to the 'single point of
delivery' - well, much depends on how your mail client is configured - if
you are going to be storing everything in the Exchange mailbox, it would be
best to have all mail for your domain (or subdomain) sent directly to the
Exchange server directly, rather than relying on your mail client to access
multiple account types.
If you're using PST files, same thing applies, but you won't really get much
benefit from using Exchange in the first place if so. |
