About Exchange shared calendar
Hi guys, i have a 3d part mail server infrastracture for may company for about 200 mailbox and now my boss says me that would use a Exchange at moment "only"for shared calendar for 5 people. Now the question is: Can i leave a mailbox and a 3d part mail server operation (is mandatory) and setup a new exchange server only for use a shared calendar ? I remember that in 2007 exist something like a POP3 conncetor for external mailbox but i don't know if this maybe useful. Can exist another better solution fo do it ? Thanks in advance.

Hi Setting up an Exchange solution for sharing 5 mailbox calendar seems to be a waste of money for me But of course, it works well! Why not use Exchange for all mailboxes instead? Or did i misunderstand anything?Jonas Andersson MCTS: Microsoft Exchange Server 2007/2010 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | MCSE/MCSA Blog: http://www.testlabs.se/blog

Hi Alter1974, If the five users are on the 3<sup> </sup>rd part mail server, it is impossible to achieve the goal. If the five users are on the Exchange Server, you can follow this post to set shared calendar: How can I create a new shared group calendar for OWA 2010 users to see? http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchange2010/thread/4cd25940-cc41-47fe-b03d-2c5407acfb14 If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know.

Hi Even , thanks for your reply and sorry for the delay but i was out of office the last week. So , in option i can use only for this 5 users exchange server for mailbox , shared calendar and other feautures but configure on exchange server something (like "connector") so exchange connect via pop3 or imap to a 3d part mail server download the mail in the exchange mailbox users so the 5 users can point always to exchange server for calendar and mail ? Thanks in advance.
