Hi,

I want to install Exchange 2007 SP1 on a dedicated Windows 2008 x64 member server. We already have a working Exchange 2003 server and I want to make sure that I do not disrupt the operation of exisiting mail setup.

Will the Exchange 2003 server continue to work with OWA, OMA etc?

As I understand, the existing 2003 will route mail onto the new 2007, correct?

Eventually I want to move everyone to the Exchange 2007 and take the 2003 out of comussion. However, it could be a while before I get around to doing this.

Best regards

jaseDK

Exchange 2007 won't have any affect on the existing 2003 installation. 2003 will not route mail to the 2007 unless you tell it to, unless you mean "will the connectors be created?" in which case the answer is yes.
