What are the real-world benefits from implementing separate routing groups
like this? I'm not currently doing this and am wondering if it's something I
should do.

I have a main office and a remote office, all under the same AD domain. Each
office is configured as a separate AD Site. One Exchange server along with a
separate GC server is at each site. The Exchange servers are part of the
same routing group though. Hardware VPN between our firewalls.

Never had any problems that I'm aware of, but you never know, right?

Hi John

What I would recommend is having each server in it's own Routing Group and
then create an SMTP Connector to join the routing groups together, this will
allow you to control message flow.

With regard to the Global Address List, unlike Exchange 5.5 Exchange 2000
uses the Active Directory as its Directory Service, so you need to make sure
you have AD configured correctly to replicate the AD between the DC's in
each site, I would also recommend having at least one Global Catalog Server
in each remote site.

Hi
 
I have a new project to deploy MS Exchange Servers at three different
locations. Each location is geographically separated about 350 miles from
each other. They are all going to be under one Domain Name, connected
through a Frame Relay. I am little bit rusty on how to set up Exchange
Servers to replicate with one another in other for a user to see all users
names in the address book when it comes to sending mail. Can somebody point
me in the right direction please 
 
Thanks
