SUMMARY

There are four localized versions of Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5.
  • English
  • French
  • German
  • Japanese
Microsoft Exchange Server supports three encryption algorithms:
  • CAST-64
  • DES
  • CAST-40
There are no separate high and low encryption codes for Microsoft Exchange Server. Microsoft Exchange Server code is the same worldwide. The level of encryption is determined by the Microsoft Exchange Client or Outlook client, not Exchange Server.

The U.S./Canada versions of all Exchange Client products support all three algorithms, but default to CAST-64. All other international (localized) versions of Exchange Client support only the CAST-40 (40 bit) algorithm.

Microsoft does not produce a generic International version of Microsoft Exchange Server.
