just a quick question. I'm working on a project in Sharepoint Server 2010 standard at the moment and we were just wondering how long it would take to:

  • set up an mail server on the same server as our Sharepoint 2010 environment
  • configure Sharepoint to use it for incoming emails and outgoing email alerts
  • create ~10 customized outgoing email alerts each with the appropriate triggers (a document has been uploaded, a date has been set on a calendar, etc.)
  • give each user of a particular role an email address they can use
  • make it such that each email sent and received from/to each of these addresses is archived on the system sorted by the relevant correspondant.
    • Make a summary page where all emails are sortable according to the correspondant in question.

I know estimating time is a difficult question at the best of times, we just want a very rough estimate, we'll be having two developers pretty new to sharepoint with an ASP background implementing this.
