We are getting ready to install Microsoft Exchange 2003 SP2 in the next few
days.  Are there any issues or quirks that anyone has run up against that we
might see?


Thanks,
Fred

Pretty much nothing. Just go for it. Oh, back up beforehand of course... :-)

Yeah, I also plan on pulling a drive in our mirroed set and allowing the
replacement drive to synchronize with the current drive before I load SP2.
That way if SP2 screws up my machine I can simply boot off of the pulled
drive to get back to my pre SP2 state.


Thanks,
Fred

Yeah, but can I asume that you're not paying, as usual?
I mean, it might be worthless American currency but you could at least
try to spend it. You can't take it with you.

He could email you that beer but his Exchange server doesn't work...

No thanks required. You can repay the favour by putting the Queen on
your money and adopting a little song we all know "God save the
Queen", I think it's called.

Or, you could just buy a round, once in what, 4 years is it, would be
good.

No problem. We'll just make it after 5:15pm, then he'll be tucked up

If you insist on changing the currency and the national anthem, are you
going to standardise on Greenwich Mean Time as well?

And we thank you for:

Anything where the "host" brings on unsuspecting punters to tell us their
tales of marital woes "My Mom is actually my sister")

Oh and the one that tops them all:

Yeah, I have done this in the past when I was concerned about patches
screwing my machine up.  Thinking back the ole one way MDAC update rings a
bell.

Read the release notes.
If you have IMF installed, remove it.
Good backups before and after.
Front Ends first.

While Nick and Mark, work on their beers, which I hope is a Red Stripe
from Jamaica :), you should also uninstall IMF v1 (if implemented)
before installing SP2 or you will have issues with it now working after
the installation.

HATH = Hope All That/This Helps
