How do we back up Exchange Server 5.5?

How do we back up Exchange Server 5.5? Do I have to buy third party tools or can I use standard Windows tools to do that? Can you give me some quick direction regarding Exchange backup/recovery procedure?

You can use either the built-in Windows Backup tool or a third-party tool to backup your Exchange servers. For details on how to do this, consult the Help files that ship with Exchange. In addition, see the following documents:
