You cannot use the Exchange Management Pack for MOM 2005 until you can import it into MOM. After you have the MOM 2005 environment installed, you must import the Exchange 2007 Management Pack to start monitoring the servers that are running Exchange 2007.  

Note:
   We recommend that you to upgrade to Microsoft System Center Operations Manager 2007 R2 to take advantage of the new and improved monitoring features for Exchange 2007. For more information about Operations Manager 2007 R2, see the System Center Operations Manager Web site.
