Migration from Groupwise 6.5 to Exchange Server 2003

Getting ready to quote on a job to Migrate a 60 user GroupWise 6.5 email environment over to Exchange Server 2003: Couple of immediate questions come up:
1.) Does Exchange Server 2003 have any built-in utilities to assist with the conversion (that work)?
2.) If not, are there any excellent 3rd party tools that are a must-have to pull off the migration?
3.) Any other nuances i should be considering before plowing down this path

The last migration tool that Microsoft came up with, was made for GW 5.1 Nothing else since then!  
You are better off using 3rd party software from previous research the best I have found is :

I never used it, but I have heard good results.  

Be careful about things like archived messages on local user's computers.  Also I would backup and export users's personal address book and signature files.  

Good luck!
