From the Publisher

Corporations have voted (with their budgets) to get their employees connected - to each other and to the Internet. This book explains how systems professionals, using Microsoft Exchange, can establish a corporation's three most important connections - to the Internet, to X.400 systems, and to existing Microsoft Mail 3.x systems. Drawing on their considerable experience as Microsoft support engineers, the authors discuss the key connectivity issues and provide a wealth of setup information, including proven tips, performance-tuning suggestions, sample configurations, and troubleshooting procedures to help you make all three connections. Microsoft Exchange Connectivity Guide is for corporate systems administrators, mail support professionals, independent consultants, in-house tech support people - in short, this book is for hands-on professionals. And for anyone who wants to become one.
