It would be really interesting to take a try of using it because archiving mailbox databases still remains an unresolved problem for us.

We need keep all emails for compliance reasons and simply journaling and keeping them in Exchange had massive performance and backup issues. Also it puts all the onus on IT and end users to define compliance rules, this will not stand up in any court in the UK if a legal case showed IT were doing the searching or users had deleted some emails etc. No single instance, no fulltext indexing (unless you want more performance issues) - what a let down. We have now gone for 2e2 SourceOne for our archiving needs after Microsoft themselves told us that for true compliance we need to use a third party solution that can also move archived data to WORM media. Hope this helps anyone thinking of using Exchange for archiving, ask them first and tell them about your needs.

Not being able to seperate the archive store into a seperate database is a massive oversight meaning that it doesn't really solve many problems as you are still going to end up with massive mailbox databases on your servers. As it stands you also need Outlook 2010 to use the archive folders which is also off putting as it is highly unlikely that many people will be able to justify enterprise upgrade to office 2010 just for this. Dissapointing really. Good, brief reviewing of archiving.
