Exchange 2003 Recovery Server

Hi All

Can you set up an Exchange 2003 ent. server to act as nothing but a recipient of mailbox replication? We would like to set up a backup exchange server, but not in a clustered enivronment. Ideally, it would do nothing but sit there and receive information store changes from the primary mail server. Is this a matter of just installing a second exchange server in the organization but not allowing any clients to connect to it? Thank you way mucho in advance.

John

You'd need something like Doubletake.

If you're just looking for a backup of all email going in and out of your network, I would suggest this http://www.gfi.com/mailarchiver/. We use it with Exchange 2003 and absolutely love it.
