I wouldn't recommend migrating to a server that is not updated to at least the current version its running on. &nbsp;I would update it to equal or higher before migration. &nbsp;Get all your updates on the new server then migrate it over :)

Hi,<br />
I currenlty run an Exchange Server 2007, the physical server is not that great at the moment and I am running out of disk space. So I am thinking about creating another Exchange server 2007 server as a virtual machine and migrating all my users. <br />
<br />
However my current Exchange server is behind is updates and rollups. I don't want to run these currently due to limited disk space. Hence a new server.<br />
<br />
Would both servers require that they are both updated to Rollup 10 etc or can they be in different states?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
