    Any Exchange Admins have any experience with "Postini"?

    One of our resellers also wanted to set us up with MXLogic. It looked a lot more expensive though then our current solution so at first glance they didn't want it. Any preferences on Postini vs MXLogic ?

    Any Exchange Admins have any experience with "Postini"?

    Just curious. I received a lot of recommendations to check out Trend Micro products to scan our inbound/outbound e-mail for virus, trojan, spam, etc. So I called Trend and left a message. Trend referred me to one of their direct resellers to learn more about the products. When the reseller...

    Hi all, I have several P4's that have burned out (defective motherboard). The company that sold them to us is a shady type and we can't get replacements. We just want to cut our losses and buy something inexpensive but reliable from newegg or some other vendor and rebuild the PC's so they...

    Recommendations on good SATA RAID5 card?

    Sorry to sound like a nub, but what is hostraid R1? are you talking about RAID-1 configuration or something else? Thanks for the info on the Raptors, that will save a chunk of change. Cost performance and fault tolerance are what they are after so I chose SATA drives and RAID 5 (3+1 hot spare).

    MS Discontinues Updates for XP-SP1 via Windows Update

    As a corporate user, I can't say I'm thrilled they removed SP1a support. We use several vendor/3rd party applications that are not compatible with SP2. And unfortunately, because they are vendor controlled we have no say in when they get updated to SP2 compatible other then to complain to the...

    Windows 2000 Server running like crap lately.

    Hey guys and gals, I need to pick your all-knowing brains. I have a Windows 2000 Server DC on my network that as of several months ago began running like crap and I can't figure out why. It's just very very slow when accessing the disks, and now it takes forever (~15 minutes) to reboot whereas...

    Does XP need to be reinstalled every year or so like Win 98?

    XP seems more robust then 98. Re-loads are far less frequent since I started using it. Just keep it in good shape. Delete IE cache, profile temp files, scan for viruses, update patches & SP's, remove unecessary programs and spyware and defrag and you'll keep it running stable longer.
