Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 3 and now we have Windows Server 2008 R2 support!

Ask and you shall receive - Exchange 2007 SP3 w/support for Windows Server 2008 R2 Now Available

I am very pleased to let you all know that Exchange Server 2007 SP3 is available for download. As we highlighted in Updates to the Exchange Supportability Matrix this past November, this third service pack for Exchange 2007 enables Exchange 2007 to be installed on the Windows Server 2008 R2 version of the operating system. We heard you loud and clear that this is enormously important to our Exchange 2007 customers, so we worked quickly to deliver SP3 in order to meet this requirement.

Download Exchange 2007 SP3 here.

Keep the feedback coming and for those of you evaluating all the good stuff packed into Exchange Server 2010, don't miss the beta of Exchange Server 2010 SP1. You can read about SP1 here.
