Product DescriptionAccording to Microsoft, Exchange Server delivers over 75% of all corporate e-mail. The 2007 release is the fist major overhaul since 2003. It attempts to address the challenge of delivering greater performance and accessibility while increasing protection against a new generation of high risk security threats. Microsoft has added many new features that dramatically improve the scope of Exchange Server and the Outlook web client, positioning the platform as a groupware and collaboration tool that is accessible to remote and wireless users as will as those wired directly to the corporate intranet. The typical SysAdmin needs a reference that cuts through all the complexity and seldom-used features to get the product successfully deployed as efficiently as possible---exactly the job of the 'How to Cheat' series.

Rating: - good book
I was trying to find information online on MS Exchange replication. MS has terrible documentation. I opened this book to the relevant chapter and had my answer in under 5 minutes. This book is great.
Rating: - The book to get for Exchange 2007
Exchange 2007 is a very big change when compared to its predecessor. Personally, I was interested in getting up-to-speed on it quickly, after having ignored it's introduction to the market last year.
Henrik Walther made that task easy. He comes at the subject from the perspective of an experienced administrator who wants to get right to the things you really need to get done. Exchange is a very complex, very big application, and Henrik's book makes getting into the nuts and bolts of configuring ... Read More
Rating: - Good Book but annoying formatting.
Love you work on msexchange and use the site regularly but the formating of this book is makes it really annoying to read (not sure if this is common to all 'How to cheat...' books). I suggest the person doing the "How to cheat" layout/formating refer to some of the books below and cut back on the number of different fonts and uses smaller heading sizes.
For peoples reference I have purchased Tom Schinders ISA Books (from ISA 2000 onwards), Mark Minasi's Server books (2000 & 2003), Barry ... Read More
Rating: - Best Installation Guide
Having worked with Exchange since 5.0 I have read many installation guides and administrator's handbooks and I would rate this one as the best. I acquired this book after teaching how to configure and install Exchange 2007 to corporate clients and I have since done away with delivering them my own notes and simply recommend that they purchase this book. It is the ultimate guide to installing and configuring Exchange from a technical perspective. Way to go!
Rating: - Great technical content, poor editing
By page 4, the editing annoyed me and I picked up the unleashed book. I read all 1000 pages and returned unleashed for this book due to the deeper technical information.
If you like to "read" your technical books, this can get tiring. If you want a great reference with lots of info on the issues you will run into on a 2007 deployment, pick this up.
