  • Acknowledgments

    I never thought that I would enjoy writing and teaching as much as I do now. In fact I love it. I enjoy writing about existing technology, sharing my experiences with students and colleges everywhere. I’ve trained people all around the world and it’s been a great experience, so great that I plan to con-tinue doing it for as long as I live. There is no question that technology is my passion and I’m very fortunate to live my passion.

    I want to thank Chris McCain, my mentor for showing me the way and giving me the opportunity to take part in so many great projects including writing this book. Now I can share my passion with the rest of the world. Because of you, I had the privilege of being involved in different capacities with Microsoft Learning in the development of the certification and the courseware development for Exchange Server 2007, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, WSS 3.0, and SharePoint Server 2007.

    I learned during this project that writing a book of this magnitude is not easy and is time-consuming. Writing books is never the product of a single person, but rather the collective effort of many. I want to thank all the people who were involved with this project, Joel Stidley, Andy Schan, Ilse Van Criekinge, Siegfried Jagott, Bob Lawler, and Tariq Azid. Your work, sacrifices, and efforts are greatly appreciated. I’d like to thank the developmental editor Brenda Frink and the technical editors, Rodney R. Fournier and Randy Muller, for providing constructive feedback and detail suggestions. My thanks also go to the copy editor, Candace English; the production editor, Elizabeth Campbell; the proofreader, Amy McCarthy; and to the compositor, Craig Woods.

    A special thanks to Jeff Kellum and the staff at Wiley for the patience and the opportunity.

  • Introduction

    Microsoft has recently changed its certification program to contain three primary series: Tech-nology, Professional, and Architect. The Technology Series is intended to allow candidates to target specific technologies and is the basis for obtaining the Professional Series and Architect Series certifications. The certifications in the Technology Series consist of one to three exams, focus on a specific technology, and do not include job-role skills. By contrast, the Professional Series focuses on a job role and is not necessarily focused on a single technology, but rather on a comprehensive set of skills for performing the job role being tested. The Architect Series offered by Microsoft includes premier certifications that consist of passing a review board con-sisting of previously certified architects. To apply for the Architect Series of certifications, you must have a minimum of 10 years of industry experience.

    When you’ve obtained a Technology Series certification, you are recognized as a Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS) on the specific technology or technologies that you have been tested on. The Professional Series certifications include Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP) and Microsoft Certified Professional Developer (MCPD). Passing the review board for an Architect Series certification will allow you to become a Microsoft Certified Architect (MCA).

    This book has been developed to give you the critical skills and knowledge you need to pre-pare for the exam for obtaining the MCITP: Enterprise Messaging Administrator certification (Exams 70-237 and 70-238).

    The Microsoft Certified Professional Program

    Since the inception of its certification program, Microsoft has certified more than 2 million people. As the computer network industry continues to increase in both size and complexity, this number is sure to grow—and the need for

    proven

    ability also will increase. Certifications can help companies verify the skills of prospective employees and contractors.

    Microsoft has developed its Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) program to give you credentials that verify your ability to work with Microsoft products effectively and professionally. Several levels of certification are available based on specific suites of exams. Microsoft has recently created a new generation of certification programs:

    Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS)

    The MCTS can be considered the entry-level certification for the new generation of Microsoft certifications. The MCTS certification program targets specific technologies instead of specific job roles. You must take and pass one to three exams.

    Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP)

    The MCITP certification is a Professional Series certification that tests network and systems administrators on job roles, rather than only on a specific technology. The MCITP certification generally requires completion of one to three exams, in addition to obtaining an MCTS-level certification.

    Microsoft Certified Professional Developer (MCPD)

    The MCPD certification is a Professional Series certification for application developers. Similar to the MCITP, the MCPD is focused on a job role rather than on a single technology. The MCPD certification generally requires completion of one to three exams, in addition to obtaining an MCTS-level certification.

    Introduction

    Microsoft Certified Architect (MCA)

    The MCA is Microsoft’s premier certification series. Obtaining the MCA requires a minimum of 10 years of experience and requires the candidate to pass a review board consisting of peer architects.

    How Do You Become Certified as an MCITP: Enterprise Messaging Administrator?

    The MCITP: Enterprise Messaging Administrator certification requires an individual to pass two examinations and have an MCTS: Exchange Server 2007 Configuring certification. The two exams are the 70-237 and the 70-238, and they require extensive training in Exchange Server 2007 to complete.

    Attaining a Microsoft certification has always been a challenge. In the past, students have been able to acquire detailed exam information—even most of the exam questions—from online “brain dumps” and third-party “cram” books or software products. For the new generation of exams, this is simply not the case.

    Microsoft has taken steps to protect the security and integrity of its new certification tracks. Prospective candidates must complete a course of study that develops detailed knowledge about a wide range of topics. It supplies them with the true skills needed, derived from work-ing with the technology being tested.

    Make sure you take a Microsoft Skills Assessment for Exchange Server 2007 to help you focus your exam preparation. You can find the assessments at

    http://assessment.learning.microsoft.com/test/home.asp

    .

    The new generation of Microsoft certification programs is heavily weighted toward hands-on skills and experience. It is recommended that candidates have troubleshooting skills acquired through hands-on experience and working knowledge.

    Fortunately, if you are willing to dedicate the time and effort to learn Exchange Server 2007, you can prepare yourself well for the exams by using the proper tools. By working through this book, you can successfully meet the exam requirements to pass the Designing Messaging Solu-tions with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and Deploying Messaging Solutions with Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 exams.

    This book is part of a complete series of Microsoft certification Study Guides published by Sybex, which together cover the new exams and the core MCSA and MCSE operating-system requirements. Please visit the Sybex website at

    www.sybex.com

    for complete program and product details.

    MCITP Exam Requirements

    Candidates for MCITP certification on Exchange Server 2007 must pass three Exchange Server 2007 exams (in the case of this book, the Microsoft Certified IT Professional: Enter-prise Messaging Administrator, Exams 70-237 and 70-238). For a more detailed description of the Microsoft certification programs, including a list of all the exams, visit the Microsoft Learning website at
