Biggest problem with Exchange is that some moron decided the Access
database format would be good enough.  Of course, try recovering a
several Gb access db when it gets hosed (note I didn't say if).  Using
a toy "database" format for a critical application is majorly stupid.
Trying to make an MTA do calendaring, etc., is also stupid.  But then,
stupid monolithic (megalithic?) apps is partly what makes M$ appeal to
the M$ myrmidon.  I'm surprised Exchange isn't integrated into the
operating system along with Office and more.
