In order to help our customers configure their servers better, we have been working on a tool that you will be able to run from a workstation and configure your Exchange 2007 servers easier. Some of those options are not easy to configure otherwise, and some of the problems that you might have seen in your environments could be explained by those being turned on accidentally. The scheduled release of the final version of this tool is February 29, 2009. Have a look and give us your feedback: are there any other options that you find hard to configure, or you find that it is easy to inadvertently turn them on?

    As it stands now, in order to make administrations in Exchange 2K7, you either have to use ADUC, ESM and CMD Shell.  And that does not even mention if you are in the middle of a migration!

    Why make a 4th interface to make config changes?

    A seperate tool would be great to assist with the more complex tasks...Enabling the existing GUI with all the feature sets of the CMD Shell would be better.
