It’s a rainy night here in Amersfoort. Watching footy on the telly, but something tells me to open my Inbox. And there it is.Time: 20:42, Sender: KC Lemson Subject: Exchange 2007 RTM has Arrived!
I call out to my wife. I’m getting the kids out of bed. These are the moments they are going to tell there children and grand children about. The landing on the moon, The fall of the Berlin Wall and now its Exchange 2007 RTM is here. My daughter(3 years old) starts to cry out, we are going to mis you daddy, because she knows daddy has to work a lot , daddy has to work in the middle of the night to migrate mailboxes. But I tell here that this is not the case with Exchange 2007 and that migrating mailboxes is only moving mailboxes now. So she gets back into bed and has a smile on here face from ear to ear. I open up my BeerTender (c).
I started to call my friends and co-workers. They are just as excited as I am. We make a appointment to meet at the nearest bar to have an RTM drink fest.
My good friend Kevin is just as excited as me and tells me that he won’t sleep this night and will wait for the RTM on the TAP site. Stefan is wondering if there is an Management Pack for MOM 2005. We tell him there is and he buys the next round of drinks because he is so excited about this news. The night is getting longer and there finaly is Rob, our BDD/RDX hero. He is just here for the drinks.
The end of this story is that we are getting ready to go live with this RTM. We got our servers spinning with Windows Server 2003 R2, ADAM for the edge, ASP.NET 2.0 installed. Is it already monday?? I want to start.
UPDATE:
Kevin just got home and is downloading
See ya,
Jeroen

Great post! Exchange 2007 is by far the best release of Exchange. Great features, great management…what more can you ask for?
