Hi,

I was wondering if i can use SBS 2003 without the (Exchange) service.
In other words can i Turn off the exchange and still use SBS 2003. I
want to outsource the e-mails. Would it hurt my network ?

No, although you might want to leave it running for internal purposes such
as monitoring & backup notifications. If you don't care about that, you can
just stop & disable the Exchange services

Thanks
