Product Description:
The Perfect Reference for the Multitasked System Administrators
The new version of Exchange is an ambitious overhaul that tries to balance the growing needs for performance, cost effectiveness, and security. For the average system administrator, it will present a difficult migration path from earlier versions and a vexing number of new features. How to Cheat will help you get Exchange Server 2007 up and running as quickly and safely as possible.
. Understand Exchange 2007 Prerequisites
Review hardware and software requirements, Active Directory requirements, and more.
. Manage Recipient Filtering
Create a custom MMC that contains the Exchange 2007 Recipients work center, which can be used, for example, by the helpdesk staff in your organization.
. Manage Outlook Anywhere
Outlook Anywhere makes it possible for your end users to remotely access their mailboxes from the Internet using their full Outlook clients.
. Manage Outlook Web Access 2007
See how Outlook Web Access 2007 was completely rewritten in managed code to make it scale even better.
. Use the Exchange 2007 Queue Viewer
You can now view information about queues and examine the messages held within them.
. Master Powerful Out-of-the-Box Spam Protection
The Edge Transport server supports SMTP, provides several antispam filtering agents, and supports antivirus extensibility.
. Manage a Single-Copy Cluster-Based Setup
SCC-based cluster provides service failover and still has a single point of failure when it comes to the databases.
. Recover Mailbox Databases
Use the improved database portability feature to port and recover a Mailbox database to any server in the Exchange 2007 organization.
* Essential information for the multi-tasked System Administrator charged perform everyday tasks
* Includes the latest coverage of the major new release of Exchange Server
* Emphasizes best-practice security measures for all areas and in particular the area of remote access via Outlook

I strongly suggest everyone NOT to buy this book. First, it took Amazon 11 business day to ship the book when I selected the "Free Shipping" - unacceptable.
Secondly, the book is a joke - you can get all the information just by looking through the exchange's window or by pressing F1; no new information, no Power Shell, no examples, nothing.
If you are a serious Exchange Admin do not waste your money and time on this 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.

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 it fast and understandable. If you need to get Exchange up and into production under a tight time schedule, this is your book. Likewise if you need a quick blueprint of how best to configure it for your specific needs.

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 Gerbers Exchange 2000 books plus quite a few others. The books mentioned above I really enjoyed reading and still refer to them extensively.
Having current Exchange servers I was looking for a bit more detail about transition to 2000/2003 than the 28 pages of chapter 10. It really didn't provide any extra 'expert' information.
(Edit) After leaving the book for a few months I have come back and read it again and have refered to it a few times my opinion has changed regarding the content. I would rate it around 4 stars now (But I can't change the rating?). Chapter 10 was one of the only chapters that was a little 'thin'. Overall it is a good book and once I got over the formatting annoyances I have enjoyed it a lot more second time around.

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!
