The list of fixes is at the bottom of the post, though one worth mentioning is this: 2733415 Event ID 1 is logged on the Exchange Server 2010 Client Access server in a mixed Exchange Server 2010 and Exchange Server 2003 environment.  If you have an Exchange environment with both Exchange 2003 & 2010, and you installed SP2 RU3 then you will be glad to see the flood of red in the application log can be stopped Smile.  SP2 RU3 introduced changes to RPC Client Access, and a side effect of this was Autodiscover and Exchange 2003 mailboxes.   If a user had Outlook 2007/2010 installed and they ran Test Email Auto configuration then the following would be logged into the application event log:

 

Source: MSExchange Autodiscover
Event ID: 1
Task Category: Web
Level: Error
Description: Unhandled Exception "User setting 'PreferredSite' is not available."

 

 

And the net result can be a sea of red:

 

Exchange 2010 MSExchange Autodiscover Error

 

This occurs because the Exchange Server 2010 Client Access server does not calculate the PreferredSite value appropriately for the Autodiscover service request from the Exchange Server 2003 user.

 

Other notable fixes are:

2750293 Items remain in the "Recoverable ItemsDeletions" folder after the retention age limit is reached in an Exchange Server 2010 environment

2750847 An Exchange Server 2010 user unexpectedly uses a public folder server that is located far away or on a slow network

2743761 DAG loses quorum if a router or switch issue occurs in an Exchange Server 2010 environment
