I guess it depends on the security requirements of the company, especially
if following government guidelines (such as pharmas) whether to institute it
or not. I worked in a large environment with FE/BE along with an ISA, as
well as Ironmail for spam and AV control. Pricey Pricey Pricey...

As for SBS 2008, not sure... I thought it was in the Premium release?

You can still use ISA (on a separate box) to publish OWA in a single
Exchange server envonment.

Nyet. You get Windows 2008 and SQL.

From: Cliff Galiher on
You'd need another license for Windows Server and another license for
Exchange, and none of the wizards will work, but it *can* be done.

FWIW, considering the price of licenses, you'd be better served by looking
at EBS if you want to go this route. You get Exchange pre-configured in a
back-end and transport role with that product.

Ahh, that's what I was trying to remember. I thought there was a version
that included configuring an Edge.

Thanks, Cliff. :-)
