Hi Dee, I also agree with much of what you say, and when I am working at a startup I also have to wear many hats so I see your point, however shouldn't people at least take the time to do a Google search first? Microsoft also has done a great a job offering free webcasts at different levels that offer a form of free online training that helps new IT people that are using Exchange to understand what's "under the hood".

I once posted a question, was totally belittled and humiliated by someone, but I just blew it off. I don't take what you guys state personally, I just realize you must have the ultimate job, with time to spare to only work on one thing...Exchange. There are a lot of us out here that take care of much more things, such as the phone switch, voicemail, printers, copiers, printing equipment, designer software, servers, WSUS, websites, help desk, and yes, Exchange, along with everything in the building that has a chip in it. I am an island, and if you can't throw me an oar once in a while, well, as our Mothers always said "If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all." Just my opinion. Can't we all "just get along" and help people out? Isn't that why we are all here? _____ From: Taylor, George [mailto:gtaylor@xxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2006 12:34 PM To: [ExchangeList] Subject: [exchangelist] RE: Exchange 2003 http://www.MSExchange.org/ So instead of helping the guy out you belittle him...you must be in management.

That is not the subject of the Rant, if you would reread it. No one should be touching any e-mail server without understanding the basics of how e-mail and SMTP work first.
