Hi all,<br />
<br />
I'm currently setting up a brand new SBS2011 server for a client who has several laptops all running hosted exchange accounts from fasthosts. &nbsp;Despite it clearly being the most sensible thing to move Exchange onto this server the internet connection where the server is based is notoriously unreliable so my client wants to stick to hosted exchange for now until they move to an area with better internet. &nbsp;So my quetion is what do I need to do to avoid the new server interfering with clients email (thinking about autodiscover e.t.c.) is it just a matter of deleting the mailboxes on the new user accounts and disabling the message store service?<br />
<br />
Many thanks<br />

Disabling Exchange on SBS2011 when clients using Hosted Exchange

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
