Microsoft gears up for e-commerce revolution
Microsoft laid the groundwork for its electronic commerce strategy today when it extended its family of BackOffice server applications.
Exchange Server 4.5, now in beta, adds to the capabilities of version 4.0, allowing users to view content stored in Exchange Server using a Web browser. It also offers access to Internet Newsgroups through the NNTP protocol, and extends the legacy e-mail support in 4.0. Also, shipping today are Proxy Server 1.0 and the Internet commerce tool, Merchant Server 1.0.
