MSExchange upgrade to SP2

I want to upgrade my Exchange Server 2003 to SP2 but before I do that I want to know if there is anything special to check in the post upgrade. I downloaded the instructions from MS-TechNet and there are a lot of pages.
Since I am a rookie in the field I would like any advices as to what to pay extra attention after the upgrade.

Your comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

There is a readme file with the service pack. Read that as it explains what needs to be done. The major thing is to ensure that you have removed IMF v1 if it was installed before installing the service pack.

After installing the service pack there are some further updates to Exchange you should get. There was a change in the behaviour of OWA released towards the end of last year you should have.

Simon.

Thanks Seembee,
Do you know where the file IMF v1 is located so I can try to find it before hand?
