Any know problems removing CCMAIL connector?
Does anyone know of any problems that may be associated with the removal of the CCMAIL Connector in Exchange 5.5, SP4. We used to run ccmail and migrated to Exchange 3 years ago, and would like to now remove this connector.
Any articles, issues or tech help would be appriciated.
Cheers

I can't find any MSKB articles about removing it. I did find quite a few about problems with the CCMail connector. Back everything up and take it out. That way, if something goes fatally wrong you can restore.

Bottom line
If you don't use the connector, just backup your Exchange databases, then run setup for Exchange and deselect the CCMail connector from the server options in the add/remove portion of setup. I do this at least once a week with customers who used to use the ccmail connector and want to remove it.
(You'll be fine, i've done it a billion times...just be sure you only deselect the ccmail connector, and do not deselect anything. With Exchange, a deselect removes the component!)
Good luck
