SUMMARY
Exchange 2000 provides support for multimedia enhancement of messages. In previous versions of Exchange Server, message content was limited to text, images, and file attachments. In Exchange 2000, you can integrate audio and video content in the message. When you create a new message, click Record on the user interface (UI) to record audio or video content (the Record button is a new feature in the UI).

To take advantage of the multimedia features in Exchange 2000, you must use an e-mail client computer that supports multimedia enhancement. Two e-mail clients that support multimedia are Microsoft Outlook 2000 and Exchange 2000 Outlook Web Access (OWA). To configure multimedia functionality on these clients, install Microsoft Exchange Multimedia Control.

This white paper describes the administrative options that you can use to deploy Microsoft Exchange Multimedia Control for use with Outlook 2000 or OWA. The recommended installation options depend on the operating system on which the client is running. The installation methods for Microsoft Windows 2000 clients include client download and policy-based installation. For Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0, Microsoft Windows 95, or Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition, the recommended installation methods include client download and the use of program-deployment software such as Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS).
