What’s the main differences between exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000/2003..

Answer / rishi

Exchange 5.5 does not integrate with the NT4 domain or the
Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory in a meaningful way. A
single user could be associated with several different
mailboxes. Exchange 2000/2003/2007 integrates tightly with
Active Directory, and there is a 1:1 relationship between
mailboxes and AD user accounts.
There are other differences, depending on whether you have
a standard or enterprise version as it relates to maximum
database size, but the directory integration is probably
the biggest difference.

What’s the main differences between exchange 5.5 and Exchange 2000/2003..

Answer / muthiah nagarajan

The primary differences are...
-Exchange 2000/2003 does not have its own directory or
directory service; it uses Active Directory instead.
-Exchange 2000/2003 uses native components of Windows 2000
(namely, IIS and its SMTP, NNTP, W3SVC and other
components, Kerberos and others) for many core functions.
-SMTP is now a full peer to RPC, and is it the default
transport protocol between Exchange 2000/2003 servers.
-Exchange 2000/2003 supports Active/Active clustering and
was recently certified for Windows 2000 Datacenter/2003.
-Exchange 2000/2003 scales much higher.
-It boasts conferencing services and instant messaging.
