Sams Teach Yourself Exchange Server 5.5 in 21 Days [With CDROM]

I put it on my bedside table and cringed every time I looked at it... 'I have to read THIS! ' I continued to ignore the huge tome for a few days, but it was there staring at me every time I reached to switch my alarm to snooze. I had no option, I resolved to begin my 900 page quest later that day.If there was an 'Exchange Oscar' ceremony then Anthony Steven would win Best Supporting Mail. He managed to make a very dry subject into an entertaining and informative read. This book is not for someone who *just* wants to pass the MCSE elective exam; this is a book designed to help people who are actually designing/implementing/running Exchange in the real world. Buy it!

Forget any other Exchange book....this is the book...period! I didn't know a thing about Exchange...21 days later..I'm an Exchange guru...well not quite, but close.

Great book, still reading and not disappointed. I am an MCSE and about to venture into Exchange Adminstration. This book is opening my mind to all that exchange is and could do. Clear, concise and straight to the point with lots of illustrations that bring the concepts to life.

Fire your Exchange Consultants. Save the fees and buy this book.I wanted web access for our Exchange users. Consultants replied that's it's very complicated due to our network topology, must study w/ care...blah blah, will cost$$$..blah blah..there are consequences if we..blah..blahI bought this book and followed the 20 pages w/step-by-step screenshots to build the service in 3 hours. No more blah-blahs. The authors wrote in a straight forward way that makes everything easy to do. I'll use this tome as my Exchange reference. I have many Exchange books. Most are useless and serve as door stoppers.This one is a keeper. I wish I had it sooner.Real hands-on stuff in this Bible. Absolute must-have for all Exchange Admins!!!! This is a BARGAIN!!!

This book offers clear, pratical coverage of MS Exchange 5.5. The comprehensive instruction help me setup MS Exchange 5.5 in record time. Each chapter focuses on a practical, real-world skill, so you can read the book straight through, skip subjects you already know, or read chapters in the order that interest you.I am very thankful to the Authors and SAMS Monal Shah (B.E. Computer Science, MCSE)
