Exchange 2007 certificates - My Eyes Are Bleeding
22 June 2007I’ve read Sembee’s post. I’ve read the Exchange 2007 Wiki. I’ve read through a dozen community forum posts and TechNet pages.

16 December 2006My last post talked about a feature missing from Exchange 2007 that I think will negatively affect a number of organizations.

Exchange 2007 available for download
15 December 2006I tend to keep an eye on what’s going on in the Exchange world, particular since I write e-mail tips for TechRepublic and am currently co-authoring the Microsoft Exchange 2007 Administrator’s Companion.
