Exchange Server 2003 with SP2 introduced IMF (Intelligent Message Filter) to block, delete,archive emails that are above a certain SPAM rating. How do I view the archives ?
Fantastic free utility called IMF Companion http://stoekenbroek.com/imfcompanion/default.htm
Configure it to search your Exchsvr vsi \Queue \Pickup directory. You will see all mail that is blocked by the filter.

The following link is a great reference for exporting Exchange 2007 mailboxes to PST (old Exmerge equivalent tool) . On the client PC, need Outlook and 32 BIT Exchange management tools (EMC) installed prior to running this syntax.

TELNET utility is great for troublshooting open ports, it is used to test TCP protocols only, be aware of this when you are troubleshootiing, also look under C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services it gives you a full list of common ports used by Microsoft.
These are generally reserved for the specific purpose you should use other ports if you are configuring other applications.
