When Microsoft first unveiled Office 2013, they did at the time point out that it wouldn't be long before they withdrew support for Windows Vista, XP and Office 2003.
More recently however we've learned that Exchange 2003 is also on the 'chopping block', and that's forcing users to consider alternative email solutions.
Out of the box MDaemon has some very detailed logging and real-time statistics built into the application.
In this post I'll show you how to learn more about what a server's doing using the free Performance Monitor feature in Windows.
The latest BackupAssist release is now available on our site consisting mainly of small fixes - this may be of particular interest if you've experienced any oddities with the Centralised Monitoring Console (CMC).

Details and release notes below....
I recently ran a survey among our partner program members (all IT support companies) to find out which, if any, of the various social channels they use 'frequently', to help us understand how best to keep in touch.
Of the 324 respondents the results were as follows:-
After a development period lasting a number of years and a successful beta phase that involved over 1,000 service providers, we are very pleased indeed to announce the release of the final version of the MailStore Service Provider Edition.
Depending upon on the design of your network, it may not always be possible to let MailStore Server automatically synchronise its list of user accounts with your Active Directory.
If that's the case, you way well find the alternative is to add users manually.
Following on from Part 1 of this guide where I explained how to create Exchange Granular Restore ("EGR") compatible backups in BackupAssist, in this second instalment I will look in more detail at how we can restore email from within the backups we have created.
With the release of BackupAssist v7.3 a brand new method for restoring exchange mailbox data was introduced named 'Exchange Granular Restore'. This is still a relatively new feature for many of our customers so I thought it would be useful to put together a guide to introduce this new feature and how best to make use of it. 
Just a quick one to let you know I've just added a video with the shortest possible explanation I can manage of why BackupAssist should be of interest if you're a small business (or work with one).

You're well in to the evening and the 'simple' site visit you embarked upon has turned in to a monster can of worms.
Turning it off and on again repeatedly has failed and you've been watching status bars for the best part of the day with no hope of seeing home any time soon.
What you'll take away from this three part series of useful links to free utilities and indispensable articles, may just provide that lifeline in such a situation.
Back by popular demand, behold part two of our ultimate list, compiled by IT professionals from across the UK.
