Thanks Chuck $terling ;)

I thought that may be the case just figured it was weird that you could
have X2K3 on W2K but not the other way around, and thanks for getting
back so quickly Ross.

No insult taken about the abbreviation and I have asked the Exchange
product manager (Ross Dembecki rossd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) to answer Anton's
questions, which I have included below. 

Thanks,
 Charles $terling


There is a detailed white paper on this topic at this URL:
 
http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/evaluation/ti/TiWinNet.asp
 
Along with the URL Ross states:
 
In accordance with the Microsoft company-wide Trustworthy Computing
initiative, Exchange Server 2003 running on Microsoft Windows Server(tm)
2003 provides many new features and enhancements to improve reliability,
manageability, and security. 

When designing new product releases, Microsoft balances new features and
functionality with providing our customers the highest possible level of
interoperability and/or coexistence with previous product versions.
Microsoft does its best to ensure that customers can extend current
infrastructure investments, yet have the opportunity to incorporate new
technologies into their existing computing environments.

With approximately 350 code changes in Windows Server 2003 that affected
Exchange, Microsoft determined that it would better benefit our
customers to focus development efforts on Exchange 2003 to take full
advantage of the new improvements in IIS 6.0, rather then on updating
either version of Exchange to run on Windows Server 2003 in IIS 5.0
compatibility mode or Exchange 2000 to work with the new architecture in
IIS 6.0. As a result, Exchange 2000 needs to be physically installed on
a server running Windows 2000 with Service Pack (SP) 3 to coexist in a
Windows Server 2003 environment. Exchange 2003 is fully supported on
both Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 running IIS 6.0.
