Toolkit

I think like most Exchange fellows, I have a set of tools to analyze, design and deploy Exchange environments. These tools are additional to the original media, service packs and rollups.

Because of the variety in customer environments, meaning having to work with older versions of Exchange, I get to manage a set containing several tools or versions of tools.

The table below is my current “Exchange Kit”. When you are looking for Service Packs or Rollups, please consult Versions, Builds and Dates. Note that I’ll try to keep this kit list up to date as possible; if you see any inaccuracies  or think something needs to be added, please send me an e-mail.
