Targeted at medium-sized installations and up, this book addresses the difficult problems these users face: Internet integration, storage management, cost of ownership, system security, and performance management. Going beyond the basics, it provides hands-on advice about what you need to know after you have your first site up-and-running and are facing issues of growth, optimization, or recovery planning.
Full Description
Microsoft Exchange is a big, complicated application; it requires more disk storage than Windows NT Server and has several hundred configuration property pages and dialogs. But it is also a very powerful and flexible messaging system. However, knowing that it can be made to do something and understanding how to do it are often worlds apart. Managing Microsoft Exchange Server bridges this gap.
This book is a no-nonsense, practical guide to planning, installing, managing, maintaining, and troubleshooting Exchange networks. Targeted at medium-sized installations and up, Managing Microsoft Exchange Server addresses the difficult problems these users face: Internet integration, storage management, cost of ownership, system security, and performance management. It goes beyond the basics to provide real hands-on advice about what you need to know after you have your first site up-and-running and are facing issues of growth, optimization, or recovery planning. Managing Microsoft Exchange Server comprehensively explains how Exchange works, what it can do, and how you can make it work for you.

Great read. Very informative. Our company went with the hosted exchange server solution. Couldn't be happier. ... easy migration.
Go to ASP-One Hosted Exchange (http://www.asp-one.com/exchange_hosting/) to check out pricing.

This book "used" to be good. But its getting really *old*. Most sites I work with these days are Exchange 2000, when are O'Reilly going to bring out book that at least covers the current version, let alone before the next version again comes out. This books will be TWO *major* versions behind soon.
Get youself a decent book on Active Directory and learn a little about the Internet RFCs and DNS, and you will be better off than buying this book (which was good in its day...)

If I had to choose but two MS Exchange books for my arsenal, this would absolutely be one of
them. The other would have to be Barry Gerber's "Mastering Exchange Server 5.5" Paul Robichaux has done an EXCELLENT job of filling in what few gaps Barry Gerber left in his book. Where Gerber provides an excellent guide to setting up and getting to know Exchange, Robichaux takes you deeper into more "advanced" administrative issues such as disaster recovery, security, enabling Exchange for remote users, etc.
If you manage an Exchange server or servers for your orginzation, this book is indispensible.
Hats off to the author!

" ***** "as well
Managing Microsoft Exchange Server by Paul Robichaux has become a dependable reference book for me. It is the first book I reach for when researching an obscure Exchange issue. Paul covers the subject well with timely tips and techniques that apply to the subject.

WOW! Great book! I am not bragging, but I want to qualify my experience with Exchange and technical books.
I am an MCSE and an MCT. I teach Windows 9x, Windows NT Server, Windows NT Workstation, Windows NT Enterprise, IIS, Proxy, TCP/IP, Exchange and more... I have also co-authored and edited several Windows NT books.
This is one of the most technically accurate and readable books that I have read in a long time. I am actually reading it cover to cover and I am enjoying every page.
JOB WELL DONE!!!! Thanks!
Media reviews "Robichaux clearly knows his subject. He doesn't [hew] slavishly to the Microsoft line and is happy to make suggestions based on real experience. For example, he recommends against using Exchange Server's automatic restart feature. If you're responsible for installing and managing Exchange Server, you should have this book on your shelf. --Steve Patient, amazon.co.uk
"those looking for a great guide to master the day-to-day operations of Exchange need look no further. Concise chapters cover all of the fundamentals: from installation to management, security, troubleshooting and repair. If you're new to Exchange, the chapters are arranged from basic to advanced topics in order to get you up to speedin a short time frame. And if you're already running an Exchange server, this is the book that will help you expand and tweak your system without taking down your entire company's communications. If you're a technical manager, make sure your staff has a copy of this on hand and if you're an Exchange administrator make sure your boss buys you one." --indigo.ca, Jan 2000
