I'm disappointed
Having purchased a number of "... The Complete Reference" books in the past, I must say that I am disappointed with this one. For all of the pages in this book, there really isn't much substance. There are too many illustrations with little text to back them up. I definitely would not recommend this book to a beginner. An experienced Exchange admin might value it as a reference but I believe that the Microsoft books are more useful in that capacity.

Very informative!
I read the comments here and bought the book anyway after skimming it in my local bookstore. I think this book is a great reference to have handy. Its filled with great tidbits, configuration settings and other information I have not been able to find anywhere else. The chapter on Instant Messaging is very thorough, as are other chapters. No book is perfect, but overall I am pleased with the book and I recommend it to others.

Not practical
This is one of the worst computer books I have ever read!! I have had to constantly refer to MS whitepapers to install my test Exchange server since this book lacks the thoroughness to complete a full multi-domain installation with ADC and IM installed. The section on installing and configuring the IM server is useless. I've read at least 1/3 of the book and will probably not read the rest. I will try the book from MS Press next.
