The first part of my scripting series discussed ways of accessing and searching for Exchange objects such as users and contacts in Active Directory. This second part of the series will go over creation of a new object, and over the most important attribute of an Exchange recipient, the e-mail address.
Automatic Updates often require a reboot, and if you have a Domain Controller with Exchange installed on it, a reboot can take a very long time indeed. This article discusses why Exchange/DC shutdown takes such a long time, and (more importantly) what you can do about it.
Exchange databases need disk space, once they run out of disk space they can not continue to function.

The purpose of this article is to give you a somewhat superficial review of SurfControl’s E-mail Filter for Exchange 2000/2003. Some of you might ask why it’s superficial; well there’s a simple answer for that, the product is way too comprehensive for an in-depth review, I therefore suggest you download your own trial version and give the product a go in your test lab, as that’s the only way to get a real insight into the product’s capabilities.
