Monitoring Exchange 2007?

[Anthony Montibello]

Equaly NC_NEt, NSClient++ and NRPE all can also give access to Performance
counters, Processes and services.  SOme (like NC_NEt) also give access to
WMI and event logs  but none give direct interaction to Exchange itself.

Doesn't echange have its own internal performance monitoring and event
handlers on thresholds. If so, and if they allow scripts to be triggered or
if they send email reprots then you may be able to configure Exchange to
submit directly to Nagios via NSCA? (Maybe)
