The Exchange 12 Team is pleased to announce that a more recent Beta 1 build is available for download, called DF3 (Dogfood 3). Here are just a few of the many features that you can see in DF3 which have been added since Beta 1:
- WebReady Document viewing via Outlook Web Access: When you receive a .PPT, .XLS or .DOC attachment, click on it and choose pen as web page? OWA will render the attachment within IE, so you don need Office installed in order to open the files, and the attachments won be cached. This feature is only available in the premium version of OWA, with IE 6.0 or later.
- At the end of every wizard in the Exchange Management Console you'll see the exact monad command that it ran. A lot more GUI has also been added: support for adding/removing columns in the result pane, Email Address policies, Mailbox Recovery, OWA management, Queue viewer, Distribution List management and much more!
- There are a variety of new conditions and actions in the Transport Rules wizard, as well as support for Journaling. Open Exchange Management Console and go to Organization Configuration Bridgehead Settings to see for yourself.
To download the updated Beta 1 build, please log into MSConnect at www.connect.microsoft.com using your passport account and click on the Downloads section.
The Exchange 12 Team would like to thank your for your continued participation in the Beta 1 Program. Your feedback and comments are greatly appreciated.
