BCM and Microsoft Small Business Server

[Jennifer Johnson]

I understand that BCM is disabled when using Small
Business Server on a MAPI enabled network, how can I be
sure that I will or will not be in a MAPI enabled network?

I currently have a peer-to-peer situation with 10
computers total and will be changing to a network with
one server and 8 workstations. We have no need for an
instant messaging service on our workgroup.

If you use Exchange server accounts, it's mapi enabled. BCM only works with
non-exchange accounts. It has nothing to do with Instant messaging.

Can you explain Exchange server accounts to me?

Currently each individual on the peer-to-peer uses POP3
mail, should I leave that unchanged?

Also, part of my intent in switching to Office 2003 is
the ability to utilize the Calendering system in
Outlook...this is for a consulting firm of 5 consultants
who often need to collaborate so they need access to each
other's schedules.

Thanks so much!
