If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.

Exchange 2013 will not support any Outlook version under 2007 they cut off 2003 support in this version (its fine in Exchange 2010 though)

I am just starting to look into this my self. We might have a problem with our NetBios domain name as it has a underscore in it and you can not do a NetBios rename if you are running Exchange 2007.

What did you do to your old server?

Correct, no 2003 support.  I have 2007-2013 installed here, but 90% of the OS's are still XP.

What do you mean what did I do to it? Do you mean did I throw it in the dumpster? It's still here running happily away sans Exchange.

What was the disaster you had on exchange that prompted you to go to 2013?

Not exactly sure. It seems like an update did terrible things to it.  It was fragile to begin with, the update from 2003 had issues and it had been limping along for about a year.  It was best to do a clean install, I just wish it wouldn't have taken so long and gone so wrong!

Ahh I see :D Exchange is a bastard sometimes. The first thing I was handed when I started in my new company was a fooked Exchange 2003 to 2007 migration that was started but never completed. All transport was going through 2007 but mail boxes, public folders and other services were still on 2003. It took me about 2 weeks in total to finish the migration and clean everything up. Now I get to tackle the jump to 2013 but I know my exchange environment is clean so it wont be too bad (fingers crossed)

Glad you got it working though.

Thanks and good luck!  I migrated from 2000 to 2010 in the other department 2 years ago, took a bit but went pretty smoothly.

Having read that blog, I reckon I'll be sticking with our Exchange 2010 setup and giving Exchange 2013 a miss, looks like it was a royal pain!

It continues to be. I still have users who can't share calendars and I still have to figure out the problem with public folders and who knows what else will pop up.  If I could go back I'd just go with 2010.

Our migration hasn't gone perfectly, either. But I'm staying out of it :D

It uses a lot of resources, though, I can tell you that.

I continue to find issues with XP and Outlook.  Outlook 2007 can't share calendars now, MS knows about it.  I really wish I'd just have went with 2010 but I was under pressure and figured if I was going to do it I might as well get up to date.

On a different note, has anyone tried Sharepoint 2013? I'm looking at deploying a new server at work, but am torn between Sharepoint 2010 and Sharepoint 2013 (after finding out what a pig's breakfast Exchange 2013 has turned out to be!)

I haven't. I've been thinking about trying it but I'm not sure we'd have much use.  I really need to sit down and actually see what it offers.
