We would like to welcome Microsoft MVP Rui J.M. Silva to our team of authors as he presents his first article to MSExchange.org readers. Everybody likes to keep their systems running smoothly and tuned for performance. For simpler scenarios with basic configuration you can probably use Exchange 2003 out-of-the box without ever having performance issues. But if you are responsible for a complex environment, then you have probably already felt the bitter taste of a system bottleneck. If you identify yourself with this description or if you are just a tweak fanatic, then this article is for you.
Exchange 2003 provides a native Journaling feature which allows you to archive all incoming and outgoing e-mails for a specific mailbox store. Beginning with Exchange 2003 SP1 you can download EXEJCFG.EXE from the Exchange 2003 download site. EXEJCFG enhances the current Exchange archiving features to capture recipients on distribution lists, BCC recipients and other message details. In this article I will show you how to implement Exchange 2003 Journaling for e-mails.
In this article I will give you an insight into how you, with the use of the Quota Message Service for Exchange, can customize mailbox quota messages (aka mailbox limit warnings.)
Tape backup is an old technology. It is sort of like the car engine. Though the technology has definitely matured, the basic principle and shortcomings have remained the same. In this article I will discuss backing to hard drives and DVD RAM drives for small and branch offices.
If you decide to use Newsgroups in your Exchange Server 2003 organization, the first step is to choose between Local and/or Public Newsgroup implementations. If you want to implement Local Newsgroups it is quite easy and independent from Internet traffic. Public Newsgroups mean that your Internet traffic might increase a lot so you as an administrator should try to keep public information to a minimum only.
