We currently run Exchange 2003 with an Internet Mail Service Connector that
is setup to forward mail to our main SMTP server. In planning our
transition to 2007, do we need the Hub Transport role to accomplish this
same thing? Or is the Hub transport role installed by default (or required)?

Thanks,

jeff

1) A typical installation installs all the required server roles: Mailbox,
Client Access Server, and Hub Transport.

2) If you are forwarding outbound mail to a smarthost (in your existing
Exchange 2003 environment), you would need to do the same when setting up a
Send Connector to send outbound internet mail.

External SMTP Gateway

3) Inbound email: if you are receiving mail from a non-Exchange SMTP
Gateway, you will need to configure the gateway to forward to the Hub
Transport server.
- On the Hub Transport server, configure the Receive Connector to accept
mail from the gateway (with or without authentication, depending on your
requirements).

For E2K7, my plan was to configure a CAS and two separate mailbox servers. .
.can the Hub Transport role be on the CAS?

Certainly - the only 2 roles that cannot coexist with other roles are the
Clustered Mailbox Server and the Edge Transport server.
