As promised, we have finally managed to get the physical meetings going again. To kick off our first meeting after re-launch, we are going to have an evening discussing Exchange 2010 SP1 on Thursday July 15th 2010.

As some of you will be aware, we recently held a LiveMeeting on the subject, however this will be a chance to dive deeper into the new changes and to bring your questions along to discuss in person.

The event is being sponsored by Redgate Software, a Microsoft Gold Messaging certified partner who provide transparent Exchange email archiving and PST discovery software. The perfect compliment to Exchange 2010, Exchange Server Archiver allows you to reduce the storage load on your Exchange server whilst providing a 100% transparent end-user experience. Combined with a PST discovering and importing tool, these tools will give you the best Exchange 2010 environment.

Alongside their software products they run the Simple-Talk sysadmin website which Jaap Wesselius and I have both written for.

Jaap will be our guest speaker for the evening and between us, we will cover both the new elements of Exchange Server 2010 SP1 and also answer questions about the process of upgrading from previous Exchange versions.

The agenda will be as follows:

18:00 – 18:30 – Arrival
18:30 – 19:45 – A look at what’s new in Exchange 2010 SP1
19:45 – 20:05 – Break/Networking
20:05 – 21:00 – Discussion and Questions on Migrating to Exchange 2010

The event will take place at the BSG Offices at the address below:

BSG House, 226-236 City Road, London, EC1V 2TT
