Re: shared 'departmental' accounts
yes, you can configure a "generic" mailbox and grant access to it to any
number of people...you need to first create an AD account, then configure
the mailbox...at that point you can disable the generic account, if you
like...grant the "SELF" account "full mailbox access" and "associated
external account" rights, on the Exchange advanced tab, in "mailbox
rights"...then grant "full mailbox access" to the appropriate accounts, and
also grant them "send as" rights on the "security" tab...

Re: shared 'departmental' accounts
Jim,
Using e-mail enabled lists in SharePoint would be the best way to achieve
your goal. These pages can be given ability to accept email and
attachments. You can then access these lists using the SharePoint site and
through the Outlook client. With Outlook2k7 you can read and write to these
linked resources, but with Outlook2k3 you can only read.
Here is a great link on how to do that.

A department site could consist of a shared calendar (vacations, meetings,
events, birthdays), a document library (forms, documentation, policies), a
group email (sales leads, public queries info@comapny.com), and
announcements.
We, too, just migrated from the Lotus\Domino side and came across similar
issues.
