- Microsoft Exchange Server, version 5.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

The Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 Evaluation software requires a CD Key in order
to install it. The Quick Setup Guide included in this kit gives the wrong CD Key
for the Microsoft Outlook Evaluation software. In addition, no CD Key is given
for the Microsoft Exchange Server software.

MORE INFORMATION
================

A CD Key is a series of numbers a customer is required to enter at setup time. A
CD Key identifies that a customer has the legal right to use the software if he
or she contacts Microsoft Technical Support. The evaluation versions of
Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0 are not supported and, therefore, should not have
required a CD Key.

The correct CD Keys are listed below. Please note that this problem only affects
the evaluation version of Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0, but it does not affect
the evaluation version of the Microsoft Exchange Client software.

  Microsoft Exchange Server 5.0    932-9619111

  Microsoft Outlook 97 Client      9323-9619111

NOTE: As indicated above, the Quick Setup Guide included with the evaluation
software includes an incorrect CD Key for the Outlook Client. Instead of
000-0000000, please use 9323-9619111
