Which Exchange version for 2008 server?
Hi, I am confused as to which version of Exchange server to install on32-bit Windows 2008 server standard edition. I have read some posts that say Exch 2003 is not supported and others that say Exch 2007 is 64-bit only. Is there a 32-bit version of Exch 2007 and if not, is there a way of installing Exch 2003? - I've tried and it fails miserably! Thanks.

Hi, Exchange 2003 can not be installed on Windows 2008. Exchange 2007 with SP1- 32 bit can be installed on Windows 2008 32 bit but it is not supported in production environment.
