Anyone know a link detailing the contents of Microsoft's Exchange 2000 SP3? I can get a very thorough list of fixes from the Microsoft web site but I am interested in any new features in the service pack before deciding on timing for the service pack.

The answer to this one is simple. There are no "NEW" features in Exchange 2000 SP3. It is simply a collection of fixes.

There's going to be a webcast about this as well that you may want to check out. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com/servicedesks/webcasts/wc080602/wcblurb080602.asp

In particular, there are two features that were fixes that you will want to see, but of which are HUGE improvements in AD/Exchange deployments. One called Global Catalog Partiona Occupancy: see here: Q304403 XADM: EXCH Considerations for Promoting a DC to a GC Server

and one called NO-GC-Logon which allows universal group caching on (non-gc) DC's for branch office environments that don't want GC's there. (off by default....but very cool.)
