MS Exchange and Office 365
Hi EE,
I have task to build new Microsoft exchange 2010 or 2013 environment for 60 users. The users will be send & receive emails internally and externally. Can we build server with all server role (CAS, Hub ,mailbox etc. ) in one server and customer like go with all role in once server, since they are beginning the business and they do not want to spend too much money on servers to have individual server. If so,
How much cost will be MS exchange licencing?
What server configuration would be best if installed all server roles in one server?
I suggest to go with Office 365 for cost efficiency and less administrative work, however customer still not go for cloud option and they like keep their exchange server in house datacenter .
I would like to get some advice from experts and get some idea / comments then start build some test lab by own and test all functionality before I go and implement the exchange.
Also please include, what is best solution for this customer office 365 or MS exchange 20XX?
Thank you in advance

How are the mail flow working without edge server configuration for externally . Is possible to send and received external mail servers. I am still learning exchange server , Hence , please share with me more details about it.
My current domain setup was, single site and two DC replicate each other and had DFS file server installed as well as in hardware spec is HP SB DL 360 GEN G9 E5-2620V3 with 16GB RAM. Is this configuration enough to run exchange in one server .

Hi Amit ,
Lastly I have few more question ?
I am a test lab to test Exchange 2016 functionality , therefore client prospective are any windows 7 clients able to connection MS exchange 2016 mailbox via outlook? Do we need to migrate WIN7 clients to WIN8 prior to exchange 2016 in place?
We planed , not to use edge server at this point . Do you know fort iGATE firewall / router will do mail host activity and act as routing mail to externally. How are the SMG or Trend Micro works? what price range each.
Thank you in advance.
