He confirmed details on all of the above. From the slides he reported the following (some of which is already listed, some not):

For 4.1.5:
• Intelligent HTML & RTF E-mail handling
• Free/Busy lookup during meeting request creation
• Remote Email search and retrieval
(Full mailbox experience)
• Application Extensibility, Enterprise IM & Security Enhancements

For 5.0:
• Brand New Admin UI
– Web-Based, WAN Friendly, Intuitive, Field Tested, Usability Tested, Extensible
• A full suite of APIs
– Every aspect of the Admin UI is tied to core API’s all of which are availed to both customers and partners
• Enhanced SW Configurations
– Unified management of all applications (Java, MDS, Pushes, 3rd Party)
– User initiated downloads restricted and controlled
– Configurations associated with users, groups, servers or server collections

Enterprise Directory Support

• Integration with Active Directory
• Robust Grouping Structure
(hierarchical, nesting, inheritance)
• Custom Administrative and User Roles
• Role Scoping (servers, domains, groups of users)
• Scheduling of Administrative Jobs & Tasks
• Multi-layered Software Configurations with inheritance
• Hierarchical IT Policies

High Availability

• Primary – Standby architecture
• Automated failover option
• 2n – preconfigured HA servers
– Uses same SRP ID
– No need for new service books
• Additional options for complex architectures around distributed components
• Manual failover for maintenance

They mentioned several other interesting items regarding end-user provisioning (the “WEB Desktop”–all web-based), BES monitoring, PBX integration, Windows Mobile 6.0 support, etc.

And with Outlook 2007, I’d love to see support not only for Flags but now also for Categories.
