How do i set up a microsoft exchange server if I only have a pop3

Guest

My company is a very small business. We have a Pop 3 server currently and
want to also have a Microsoft Exchange Server. We want to be able to see
what is on other's calendars and share e-mail. Once someone answers an
e-mail, we want that specific e-mail to disappear. How do I go about setting
up a Microsoft Exchange Server, and also keeping our POP3. Please help???

In as much as Exchange Server does both POP3 and IMAP natively, have you
considered replacing the POP server with Exchange? As to words on setting
up and Exchange Server, there's oodles of info at Microsoft:

Microsoft Exchange Server

I am a newbie on all of this. How do I go about replacing the POP server
with Exchange?

You purchase Exchange server, a Windows 2000 or later box to run it on, and hire a consultant. Or you get a Windows 2003 box with Small Business Server (includes Exchange and SharePoint) from an online vendor such as Dell and pay for them to configure it and consult when required. The second option is more realistic if you are a newbie.
