Exchange - change mailbox storage location + setup help

Hi,

I'm setting up Exchange for the first time on a SBS 2003.

I got some questions:

1. I would like to have Exchange storing the mailboxes on my D: partition (as C: is too small). How can I do that?

2. I must use my ADSL providers SMTP server for Exchange (I will configure POP3 mailboxes on the server). Where can I set SMTP?

3. Do you know any good guide setting up Exchange such as shared contacts, shared calendars and other common used features?

Thank you very much in advance!

Thank you very much!

The problem I have is that Windows SBS 2003 was preinstalled and I cannot set datafolder as described in http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Installing-and-Configuring-SBS2003.html

Maybe I can reinstall Exchange, but how?

Thanks!

Thank you!

I have successfully moved the exchange database and log.

Regarding the SMTP, I just mean that I want to configure my ISP outgoing mailserver that is smtprelay1.telia.com  - Isn't it possible to specify that in a very simple way?

I configured the POP3 connector with an POP3 e-mail address connected to the exchange user. I clicked retrieve now, but I still don't get any messages in Outlook...´

THanks in advance!

Note that the server has recieved the mail in some way as the POP3 mailbox is empty...
Well, even though that's really a separate issue...

I'd assume that your POP3 email is not stored on the same server as your ISP's relay SMTP service.  So you need to follow this MS KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827601

It should be noted that the POP3 connector is provided as a way to eventually deploy SMTP email on your Exchange Server.  See http://sbsurl.com/pop2smtp for details.
