Transport and routing With Exchange Server 2010 it is possible to implement cross-
premises message routing. If you use a mixed hosting environment, Exchange Server
2010 can route messages from a datacenter to an on-premise environment.
In Exchange Server 2010, you can create enhanced email disclaimers, making it possible to
add HTML content to disclaimers. It is even possible to use AD attributes (from the user’s
private property set) to create a personal disclaimer.
A new feature in Exchange 2010 is shadow redundancy. This feature protects messages in tran-
sit from being lost due to a server or network failure. Instead of deleting a message immediately
after sending it to the next hop server, the message is maintained in a shadow redundancy
queue until the next hop server reports that it was successful in delivering the message. If the
next hop server does not report a successful delivery, the first server will resubmit the message
in the shadow redundancy queue to another transport server in the organization for delivery.
More information about shadow redundancy can be found in Chapter 3, Configuring Client
Access for Exchange 2010.
When you have HA messaging support, the messages stay in the transport dumpster on
a Hub Transport server and will be deleted only if they are successfully replicated to all
database copies.
Messaging policy and compliance As email continues to grow and evolve as the number
one means of business-critical communication, the need to manage and enforce certain
policies on email content and usage also grows.
As part of a general compliance regulation, Microsoft introduced the concept of managed
folders in Exchange Server 2007. This has been enhanced in Exchange Server 2010, with
new features such as the option of tagging messages, cross-mailbox searches, new transport
rules and actions, and the new retention policies.
Mailbox archive Exchange Server 2010 also introduces personal archive; this is a
secondary mailbox associated to a user’s mailbox. Because Exchange Server 2010 now
supports lower cost storage configurations, the personal archive is a great replacement
for locally stored, easily stolen, and damaged PST files. This allows administrators to
keep control of messaging data on the corporate servers.
