Exchange for 150 users but only 10 desktops connecting to the domain
I have a customer who primarily uses webmail. I want to set them up on exchange (OWA) and I think they would be a GREAT candidate for SBS (2003 or 2008?). But they have about 150 people using email but only approx 10-15 desktops needing domain access. I know SBS is good for "75 desktop users" (according to MS website) but is there not a way to distinguish between an exchange user or "desktop users"? I'm trying to avoid a full blown exchange server....any help or recommendations would be great.
thanks in advance!

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
You need to migrate them to another platform. With 150 users the company is violating licensing.

they arent using it yet. as i said........... "I want to set them up on exchange (OWA) and I think they would be a GREAT candidate for SBS (2003 or 2008?)"
OWA requires a full CAL... so you cannot do this with SBS. You can look into EBS though - that supports up to 300 users (though I've heard some conflicting reports that it goes as high as 500).
