A good book to explain what happens behind the scenes

This was precisely the type of book I was looking for. Having been an Exchange admin for a while, I was searching for a book that goes into detail about the actual mechanics of Exchange. I knew the basic 'how to's' of administration, I wanted to know the 'why's'.It really goes into a great deal of detail, and it might not be the best book for a new admin (all the required information is there, but there is so much data it may overwhelm) but combined with a basic admin book, it's really worth the investment (even for someone starting out).I wish I'd had the book 2 years ago!

The book to read if you need to manage an Exchange network

This is an excellent book for MS Exchange administrators. The best section of the book for me was the step by step analysis of what to do to recover from a disaster scenario. Coverage of private and public folder structure was also very good.

Absolutely brilliant!

If you're about to move on from cc:Mail, MS Mail etc, then this book is an absolute must. Unlike some other titles, this book is not a re-write of TechNet articles or the Exchange online guide, instead we get the benefit of the authors' experience in the field. The case studies are complete and very well put together. The writing style in clear with very few technical contradictions. With this book in your pocket and a few days locked away in a lab you'll get to build that pilot system - no problem.

Best book around on Exchange

This is a great book on Exchange. As well as the technical information there's alot of details on how you should design and implement Exchange - and at the same time the author takes the time to explain why. The thing I like best about the book is that whilst Tony Redmond is obviously a fan of Exchange, he is not afraid to point out its limitations.

Excellent, the best exchange 5.5 book on the market

Well I'm pleased to say that Tony Redmond has produced the best exchange 5.5 book currently available. I work with exchange and recently completed my mcp exams in both exchange 5 and 5.5 so spent a lot of time and money reading lots of exchange material.There are lots of books out there that claim to be able to give you all the knowledge you need to pass the mcse, what I like about this book is that it is not an mcse book. This book covers exchange in a corporate production environment.The author goes into the most indepth detail of the exchange architecture that I have ever come across. Utilising his experience at Digital as the world's number one implementor of exchange, he uses many real world examples of how to deploy maintain and support exchange 5.5.If your going for the exchange mcp exam save your money, don't buy the 101 mcse exchange guides that are out there buy this book. Also if your considering deploying exchange, or are simply a systems person who would like to know more about the product, buy this book.
