Re: Windows Messenger for corporate users only?

Greetings Jake,

There's no way to magically make Windows Messenger restrict itself to the local network
without a local Exchange 2000 IM Server or Live Communications Server (or some other
third-party SIP-based communications service).

Is there a way to configure Windows Messenger such that individuals in your
organization with MS Exchange ID's can IM? Also, is there a way to prevent
IM traffic from being seen outside of the organizations network.

I have heard there was a way using Exchange to run an IM service internally
to your Windows network, but that has since been removed.

We want IM conversations within our organization to be seen within our
network only.

Thanks!
