Improve the way you schedule meetings

The new Exchange Server 2007 Scheduling Assistant automatically suggests the best time for a meeting when given a list of desired attendees and resources. No longer is it necessary to analyze others' free/busy information to set up a meeting that's convenient for everyone. An intuitive color-coded interface gives you precise information so that you can set up your meeting efficiently and get on with your work. The new scheduling capabilities in Exchange Server 2007 provide intelligent insight into availability and preferred times, speeding meeting scheduling.

Increase Message Security and Compliance

Office Outlook 2007 and Exchange Server 2007 deliver innovative security enhancements, including ways to better manage e-mail compliance and message retention. Help ensure compliance with Managed E-Mail Folders. Exchange Server 2007 offers Managed E-Mail Folders, a new approach to document retention, archiving, and regulatory compliance. Users see and interact with these folders in Office Outlook 2007 just like any other mail folder, but the messages stored within this folder gain retention, archive, and expiration policies defined by the Exchange Server administrator. With Managed E-Mail Folders, users and administrators can easily comply with external regulations as well as internal company policies regarding message retention.

Increase protection through integrated security technologies

Office Outlook 2007 and Exchange Server 2007 work together to provide the latest in active messaging protection to further curb unwanted spam and viruses whilst giving you more confidence in the security of your messages. Exchange Server 2007 acts as the first scan on incoming e-mail messages, determines the legitimacy of the message, and, if applicable, disables links or URLs present in the message to help protect users. New Exchange anti-phishing capabilities help to prevent phishing e-mail messages from reaching you in the first place.

Have more confidence in the security of your messages

E-mail legitimacy is managed through new E-Mail Postmark technology in Office Outlook 2007 and Exchange Server auto-encryption. Outlook E-Mail Postmark applies a token (actually a computational puzzle that acts as a spam deterrent) to e-mail messages it sends, which is read by a receiving Exchange Server 2007 server as a check for the reliability of the incoming message.
