In Exchange 2003, an installation checklist guided the administrator
through the prerequisites and installation of the various components
of Exchange. In Exchange 2007, this checklist is more intrinsic to
the setup process. Whether installing anew, migrating, upgrading or
transitioning, there are basic steps performed through the Exchange
Setup Wizard implemented as setup.exe.

Great news for all Hotmail users, Microsoft will be making the
Outlook connector available with all accounts, not just the paid
subscriptions.
You may be asking if it's worth using the connector, especially if
you are already accessing your Hotmail email in Outlook. Yes, in
most cases it is well worth using the connector.
Outlook (and Outlook Express) support HTTP access to Hotmail
accounts. This is similar to using an IMAP account, where the
messages are stored on the server and copies are brought down into
the email client. This method only supports email, not contacts or
calendar and is only available with accounts created prior to Sept
2004 and Vista's Mail does not support the HTTP protocol.
The Outlook connector makes the Hotmail account act more like an
Exchange server account, with copies of email, along with Calendar
and Contacts, stored locally for offline access. If you use only
email, then HTTP access is fine, but if you want to use your Hotmail
contacts in Outlook or use the Hotmail calendar, you need to use the
connector.
Note that HTTP access is limited to older accounts and is not
supported by Vista's Mail. The Outlook connector will work with new
accounts.

A reader asks:
"I can't seem to print a range of pages. The only
options are for All, Even, or Odd. I just want to print the first
page. I'm using Outlook 2007. Is there a way to do this, besides
cut/paste into Word?"
Outlook 2007 uses the outlook print options for everything - Outlook
2003 (and earlier versions) used Word's and IE's print options for
RTF and HTML formatted messages. Word's print options were available
for replies or forwards when you used Word as the editor.
The only workaround in Outlook 2007 is opening HTML messages in the
browser and printing. To do this, open the message and click on the
Other Actions button. Choose View in Browser from the menu. You can
change the message format to HTML to use this method, but note that
the message header won't be included in the printout.
If these workarounds don't work for you, Blueprint for Outlook by
Savvisoft uses the Internet Explorer printing model and gives you
many customization options, including allowing you to choose the
pages to print.
