The Exchange Team recently released some great guidance on how to size Exchange 2013 deployments. I think this is a really comprehensive post and as expected, the guidance is in favour of multi-role deployments. There is no “calculator” spread sheet out yet, however we should see one released soon. Read the
Following the release of Exchange 2010 SP3 in February, the Exchange Team have announced the release of Exchange Server 2013 Cumulative Update 1 (CU1). CU1 does include some new features, including *some* access Public Folder content through Outlook Web App but I think it is fair to say that legacy coexistence [...]
Ever since Microsoft announced that Forefront Threat Management Gateway (TMG) 2010 will be discontinued, I have had many customers ask me “What should we use as a reverse proxy for Exchange?”. This question has sparked many heated debates among colleagues and customers alike. To be fair, this announcement may have come as a [...]
Looks like Apple finally released an update to fit the exchange calendar bug
Update: iOS 6.1.2 resolves this problem
I have see a lot of reports lately about the Apple iOS 6.1 bug effecting organisations using Exchange 2010. The problem appears to occur when a user using a Apple device (iPad, iPhone, etc) with iOS 6.1 responds to [...]
A few moments ago the Microsoft Exchange Team announced the availability of Exchange 2010 SP3. I can’t remember any other service pack that has been as eagerly anticipated as this one, mostly because SP3 will allow coexistence with Exchange 2013 which was released late last year. Unfortunately, it appears that customers [...]

In Exchange 2013 things are a lot more simple with only two server roles, namely, the Client Access server [...]
Microsoft recently released KB2506146 and KB2506143 as optional updates depending on your which server version you are running (2008 SP2 or 2008 R2 SP1)
The update includes Windows Management Framework 3.0 and more specifically PowerShell 3.0 which is not supported on either Exchange 2007 or Exchange 2010. There have been reports of it causing [...]
I previously blogged about controlling ActiveSync device access on Exchange 2010 and Exchange Online and thought I would follow-up with quick post on how to accomplish the same results on Exchange 2013. For this post, I will create the same policy as before.. a device policy to quarantine any iPad devices. The use [...]
I am often surprised by how few customers know about or use ActiveSync device access rules (or ABQ for short) in Exchange 2010 when everyone seems to have the requirement to some degree or another. I see a growing trend to use third party products to do what Exchange can and has been able to [...]
