Implementing Dedicated Active Directory Sites for Exchange
Desiging complex Exchange and Active Directory networks can be difficult. All sorts of different issues comes up that require a lot of planning and testing. This is especially true when migrating from an NT environment (are those still around? I guess so) where consolidation of multiple Exchange 5.5 sites, isolated Exchange 2000 organizations and NT domains might occur.
The following article discusses the pros and cons of implementing a single AD site for Exchange 2003 in a large environment. This can save you a lot of lab time and guide you in your planning.
Recipient Management cmdlets introduction
As you might have heard by now, Exchange 2007 has a new scripting language replacing ADSI, CDO and CDOEX and perhaps some other interfaces I’m forgetting. Now learning a new language can be tough, but if you are serious about implementing Exchange 2007, now could be a good time to start studying.

Reporting on Meeting Delegate Forward Rules in Outlook
Glen Scale posted on his website a useful script for finding out which delegated users for a mailbox’s calendar are disabled or non-existent. The script is a neat tool for preventing those pesky NDRs.

Approaches to Fighting Spam in an Exchange Server Environment
The Approaches to Fighting Spam in an Exchange Server Environment technical guide consists of four main sections (Introduction, Definition, Challenges, and Solutions) that discuss options and solutions to provide practical approaches to fighting spam (junk e-mail) within the Exchange Server environment. This guide includes the introduction of a framework (Exchange Server 2003 Antispam Framework) which combines different methods for fighting spam within either a single or multiple Exchange Server environments and is comprised of connection-level, protocol-level, and content-level filtering. Approaches within this framework allow both administrators and end users to precisely filter and categorize spam and decide on their end whether it is spam or legitimate business e-mail. This technical guide describes these approaches in detail, demonstrates how each approach within the framework functions, and how each of these approaches works collectively. Presented in the guide are assessment and development plans and a step-by-step guide in the deployment and management section.
