image Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 3 was just made available.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 3 (SP3) has been designed specifically to meet the challenges facing our customers and to help address the needs of all the different businesses and organizations utilizing our Exchange Server 2007 enterprise messaging system.

Exchange Server 2007 SP3 is a mission-critical communications tool that enables employees to be more productive and access their information anywhere and anytime while providing a messaging system that enables rich, efficient access to e-mail, calendar items, voice mail, and contacts.

For administrators, Exchange Server 2007 SP3 provides further flexibility with the addition of Windows Server 2008 R2 support for server roles and Windows 7 support for the Exchange management tools. These additions, along with enhancements for the advanced protection options against e-mail security threats, such as spam and viruses and the tools which help manage internal compliance and high availability needs provide Exchange administrators with the tools they need to manage their Exchange 2007 environments efficiently.

Clean installations of Exchange 2007 SP3 on a new server are possible by using this download in the same manner as you would install Exchange 2007 RTM, Exchange 2007 SP1 or Exchange 2007 SP2.

The Exchange Server 2007 SP3 bits are available online in 11 languages and on two platforms (32/64bit). The accompanying documentation includes: Release Notes and What’s New in Exchange Server 2007 SP3.

As highlighted in the EHLO blog post by KevinAl a moment ago Ask and you shall receive – Exchange 2007 SP3 w/support for Windows Server 2008 R2 Now Available, this service pack was created in response to strong customer demand for Windows Server 2008 R2 support for Exchange 2007. In addition to the newly supported OS, this service pack also provides updates to a number of core components and the re-introduction of the password reset functionality within OWA for customers using Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2.
