"Tony Redmond peels away the myths, mysteries and misconceptions surrounding Exchange 2003 and guides the reader safely through the many trip-wires that lie in wait. This book is mandatory reference material for any corporation embarking on a phased migration to Exchange 2003 while keeping the corporate messaging infrastructure running. Another great text from the master of the subject." --Kevin Barrett, Vice President & Chief Information Officer, Elan Corporation plc.

More About the Author

Tony Redmond has been writing about electronic mail since 1992 and is acknowledged to be one of the foremost commentators on Microsoft collaboration technology, chiefly focusing on Microsoft Exchange Server. He retired from HP in March 2010 after spending ten years as a Vice President where he served in various roles such as Chief Technology Officer for HP Services. During his time at Digital Equipment Corporation, Compaq, and HP, Tony had a major influence over the relationship between the services divisions and many Microsoft engineering groups. Tony's books and other writing are based on the lessons learned through working with major customers to deploy technology both successfully and perhaps with less success. The aim is to understand what the technology can do and how best to deploy it to meet business goals.

His latest book is "Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 (including SP1): Inside Out" (ISBN 9780735640610), published by Microsoft Press in December 2010. Tony writes regularly about technology, travel, and rugby refereeing in his blog http://thoughtsofanidlemind.wordpress.com/

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW, Even with Service Pack 1, April 23, 2005

This review is from: Tony Redmond's Microsoft Exchange Server 2003: with SP1 (HP Technologies) (Paperback)

I read sample chapters of this book on searchexchange.com and had to get it. It is 100% dead on. Any admin who has to deal with exchange integration (especially 2003) will find this book an excellent guide. The best practices helped my organization. The caption for this book reads:
Providing thorough coverage of implementation, migration and management issues for Exchange 2000 and 2003, this book also describes the best practices of one of the largest Exchange consulting groups outside Microsoft.
You will not need another text besides this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bought this as a consultant, authoritative reference, November 26, 2008

This review is from: Tony Redmond's Microsoft Exchange Server 2003: with SP1 (HP Technologies) (Paperback)

Tony Redmond really knows the Exchange Server product. There is some good performance information in here. He relates some detailed experience about performance and supporting Exchange. This is a book aimed at practicing administrators and consultants who want someone with experience managing Exchange to give them some advice and best practices. This is not an academic overview of Exchange with light coverage of potentially in-depth topics. You probably wouldn't want to use this to study for a certification exam, but you would want to use it to learn how to really support and maintain Exchange 2003.

This review is from: Tony Redmond's Microsoft Exchange Server 2003: with SP1 (HP Technologies) (Paperback)

I work for a company that provides exchange solutions. This is the end all be all of exchange guides. It may be a little bit overwehlming for a person just cutting their teeth on exchange but if you must understand exchange, this is your book.

My spelling stinks.
