Update Rollup 9 for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
What a mouthful that title is! Microsoft released the latest update rollup
for Exchange 2007 SP1 to the download center last week. If you prefer to
wait for Windows update, it should be available July 28.
Microsoft also announced that Exchange Server 2007 SP2 is slated for release
in this quarter. SP2 will include all fixes in this and all previously
released update rollups.
More information about this release and a complete list of all fixes you'll
find in this rollup are in KB 970162.

Microsoft has a Exchange Software Updates forum for questions about fixes

when deploying updates, Microsoft engineers, as well as community members,
will be available to provide assistance.

Search Folders and Multiple Messages Stores
One thing that probably won't change much in Outlook 2010 is how Search
works with (or doesn't work with) multiple pst files and mailboxes. Because
of MAPI limitations, search functions are limited to each message store, or
in the case of public folders, one folder.
Windows Desktop Search can search all indexed mail folders, so you can
search all message stores outside of Outlook - i.e., using Vista's Start
Search field. WDS is not the only tool that can search multiple message
stores - most search tools that support Outlook have the capability. (See
http://www.slipstick.com/addins/search.asp for client-side search tools.)
Outlook 2010 Features: Two Exchange Accounts
Yes, it’s true… you can have two Exchange accounts in Outlook 2010, and I don't mean one as a secondary account. This is two accounts, two different Exchange servers. It works quite well, save for a few beta bugs that should be fixed before Outlook RTMs. Outlook is even smart enough to select the sending account based on which mailbox you are working in and saves sent items in the sending mailbox.
Exchange Quick Tip: Get All SMTP Addresses
Do you need a list of all of the SMTP
addresses assigned to Exchange 2007 mailboxes?
This cmdlet will get you a list of all addresses
associated with mailboxes, both primary SMTP and
secondary:
Get-Mailbox | select -expand EmailAddresses |
%{$_.SmtpAddress}
