Yes, great Q&A.  I'm intrigued also about the SMTP conversation monitoring in Ex. 2k7.  In 2k3 I have used the "log SMTP to Access DB" functionality to troubleshoot message delivery issues for end users.  Is this functionality still there?  That's pretty inconvenient, but is "good enough" mostly.

Along the same vein...  On a real mail server ;) I use tail -f /var/log/mail.log to watch the SMTP conversation in real time or tail -n <number> /var/log/mail.log | grep -i "someString" to find stuff.  Can this be done in powershell???  I can see it being even better in PS since it is object instead of string based.  Maybe there will be a MS secure Syslog server someday *wink* *wink* and Exchange will use it???

Exchange has made great strides over the last decade in becoming a more Internet standards capable product.  Bottom line is that verbatim  SMTP conversation visibility is a must in any Internet facing MTA.

I build Exchange two exchange organizations, first org having Exchange 2003 and 2000. The second one is Exchange 2007 on Windows 2003 SP2.
I deployed exchange 2007 org as Resource forest model and migrated few users accounts to 2007 and those are working properly as linked mailboxes by authenticating at Account forest.

Now, when is change password for linked mailbox through OWA, it is not accepting. Is there any feasibility to change password through OWA in resource forest model?

Plss. help to resolve this issue soon.
Thanks in advance
