I wish that I had bought this book last year. It is written clearly and gave me the insight to solve the nagging problems I have had with Outlook. This is a "must have" for stand alone users and especially for networks.

Woody Leonard's step by step approach is a real eye-opener. Each aspect of Outlook is explained in (almost) minute detail. He did not, however, cover links to Exchange, but did recommend an alternative publication. I think he should have gone further on this as there will be many Outlook problems eminating from Exchange (I have at least three!), and there will be many sites that use the Outlook/Exchange combination. Other than this, this is a key book for any Sys Admin. library.

I have read many computer guides in my day, often ending up more confused than when I began. This book, however, takes a complex and certainly often times frustrating subject, and breaks it down into an understandable and enjoyable format. I gave this book to my grandmother, and she proudly displays it alongside her 19th Century Salt and Pepper Collection. Enough Said! Anyone who wishes to understand Outlook, and do with it what yout think you should be able to do with it, must buy this book.

I enjoyed reading these letters between best friends. Reminds me of my own letters from best friends I've kept over the years ... maybe not so cleverly written, but just as dear and fun to read. Molly and Billie are fortunate, blessed to have each other. Bet they have hilarious pajama parties! and get togethers ... and understanding, patient, husbands. Keep the letters coming, ladies. I know I'm looking forward to more.

I accidentally bought this book, thinking it was BY Billie Letts. Boy am i glad i made that mistake! I laughed so hard i had tears coming from all orifices. Thank you Molly Griffis for a wonderful ride!

Thank you God, for creating Molly Levite Griffis. I have never in my life laughed so hard and so much reading a book. As a confirmed bookaholic, I assure you that is just a few books shy of a load. I was laughing so loud I kept waking my husband up!
It a good thing I live all the way down in Houston, otherwise, I'd be camping on Molly's doorstep until she swore we were friends. I have never connected so completely with a writer, maybe part of it is we are the same age and I, too, come from the state where the wind comes sweeping down the plain.
Good Golly Miss Molly, you are some special zany lady with not only a talent for writing, but also a talent for life. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for this refreshing book.

"Office Emails" offers up a unique blend of useful etiquette and fun reading. The book is geared toward business application but has priceless gems for the everyday emailer like the "Top Ten Don'ts. " Here are a few: Don't send emails without greetings or closings. Don't label emails as urgent that aren't. Don't send private or confidential info over email. Don't spam. If people just adhered to these four I'd be quite pleased.

This book is full of clear concise descriptions and examples of proper email techniques as well as great quotes and inciteful prose on digital communication. For example, Mr. Dworkin says: "Instant messaging is to email what the telephone was to the telegraph... One of the useful differences between instant messaging and voice is the availability of a conversational history. Every IM conversation is akin to having a personal court stenographer. Gone are the disputes about what was said. One only needs to scroll to see the entire conversation exactly as it transpired."

I recommend this book to anyone who comunicates by computer and look forward to more books in the "Don't Stub your Pinkie" series.

What I like most is not only does the book offer the how to but also a social commentary which makes emails and reading about emails more fun.

Every email user should check this out!!

"Office Emails That Really Click" is an incredibly useful reference tool that should be next to everyone's computer! Maureen and Sandy offer expert advice about the do's and do not's regarding email etiquette in a very user-friendly and witty format.

They also provide great tips on grammatical errors that we all frequently commit and clear up common misconceptions. Thanks for the English lessons!

Go buy this book!

Earlier this year I had to deploy a set of Exchange servers. I am not an MCSE, but I have installed Unix boxes and even hacked sendmail entries, so I figured, how hard should this be? Answer: very.

Exchange has a bezillion options and you'll need an almost zen-like mastery of the application to be successful deploying it. I didn't have the time to build this foundation, and relied heavily on this book to explain some of the arcane concepts.

"Managing MS Exchange Server" is very well indexed and does a pretty good job of explaining some of the obscure registry entries and security options in the product. It also provide the mental "glue" that I needed to see how my Exchange servers would interact.

A few of the registry keys were different as a result of the most recent service packs. This is forgivable given the book's always going to lag the product, and the differences weren't that horrible.

If you're tasked with doing any amount of work with Exchange, you really need this book.

WOW! Great book! I am not bragging, but I want to qualify my experience with Exchange and technical books.

I am an MCSE and an MCT. I teach Windows 9x, Windows NT Server, Windows NT Workstation, Windows NT Enterprise, IIS, Proxy, TCP/IP, Exchange and more... I have also co-authored and edited several Windows NT books.

This is one of the most technically accurate and readable books that I have read in a long time. I am actually reading it cover to cover and I am enjoying every page.

JOB WELL DONE! Thanks!

Paul Robichaux's MANAGING MICROSOFT EXCHANGE SERVER is a "must-have" for your bookshelf. It is one of those rare technical books that you can both enjoy by simply sitting down and reading it (cover to cover), or using it as a reference book, when you find your Exchange in trouble. For me, it has already more than paid for itself.

I was very disappointed by this book. The information about each of the mail protocols was very light, and the books seemed to be mostly sample code listings. If you are totally unfamiliar with any of the protocols it may be useful, but if you are looking to do any real programming the book doesn't cover enough information to let you do proper design.

Unlike other books which are padded with useless information this one cuts straight to the chase. It is concise but easy to read and it contains all you need to know to start writing mail applications.

Sure, if you want to really go deep you will need to do some more research, like reading the RFCs. And you're probably going to want to use some programming language other than VB.

But this book gets you started on the right track and tells you where to go to get more depth.

The on-line examples (once you find them on download.com) are great and really help to give you a picture of what is going on.

This is one of the most useful books I have bought.

The book is simply wonderful. It cover all theory about email and should always be at the side of any professional who really need to understand the technology behind products

Furthermore to good descriptions of smtp, mime, pop3 and imap, this book contain the best explanations of asn.1 and ldap that I am able to find.

It also include extremely useful examples and downloadable code. Using the programers toolkit of internet mail (ptim) I can examined and analyzed other protocols from ftp & http to snmp.

This Reference Guide is packed with information to help a budding programming get started in Customizing Outlook. The enclosed disc provides some good examples support this reference material well. However, the structure of the book is a little off base. Instead of feeding a bunch of detail at the beginning, Mr. Byrne should start off with a simpler approach. In addition, he should have used a more structured approach and used Bolder or Capitalized Font for critical areas of emphasis. Furthermore, it would have been nice to give at least a basic run through on Visual Basic Programming.

None the less after some trial and error, a savvy user should be able to at least get started on some Outlook Customizations. This reference guide certainly increases in value if the budding programming who uses this book is taking a class where a professor can explain the details behind the book. 3 1/2 stars seems about right.

I am very excited about the book. I have learned that Outlook can do so much more than is available in the basic canned version. I am not a programmer, nor am I very technical, and yet I am able to follow the information in the book. Indepth, but even amateurs can understand it!

This is an intermediate to advanced book that keeps it worthwhile VB programmers that don't know the quirks of the Outlook Object Model. The examples and disk are very helpful.

This book probably provides useful information for persons otherwise unfamiliar with this genre of house and architecture, but personally I found two things about it particularly annoying: first, its small size. Many plans are reduced to the point where they might just as well be heavy line diagrams, and second, I find direct reproduction of original text to be far preferable to the uniform re-typing found here. Original text tends to be just as legible and lets the reader know with no uncertainty what is, in fact, original text. In all fairness, I have to say that since I am an architect and very familiar with house plans in general, my review may not apply to all readers. I much prefer the direct reproductions, and without a doubt favor a larger format.

I was happy to see all the different style and enjoyed all the photos. BUT I really wanted to see the house size and the floor plans they were so small you could not really make out what size the rooms were. I wanted to see the sq. footage of each home. I also would have like to see what each floor plan size was. So if each page had been the floor plan so you could read it I would have enjoyed it more. What was hard is all the info was there just so small could not make out what numbers were.I think all the info in the book was good I guess I just wanted a little bit more out of it.

...I'd give it five stars. This book is a treasure trove for old-house mavens, especially those interested in early 20th-Century domestic vernacular architecture. Houses of all sizes and styles are included, most with full floor plans--which, unfortunately, you often need a magnifying glass to view clearly--and all with an illustration showing the exterior, as well as the dates sold, price, and other useful information. Many of the writeups also show interior suggestions. A very useful book.

I was a little disappointed that JUNE wasn't as hilarious as FAITH. However, it still has the quality you will expect from Lori Copeland. It is a story of trusting God, even when things don't quite go as you planned. JUNE is a well-written love story that will be hard to put down till you've read it all.

I loved this book because it gave me much more than I had expected. The story is lighthearted. The characters are full of faith in God. June and Parker express their feelings without a tint of lust. There are some adventurous and exciting scenes as well. Secondary characters are never omitted. They take their parts well in the story. I suggest that you read this one and you will start to love Christian romance.

Just finished JUNE and it's impossible to say how refreshing it is to find a Christian love story that says exactly what I feel about a certain 16 year old man in my youth group! Keep on writing and inspiring!

This is really a book about setting up some Unix mail tools: sendmail, procmail, majordomo, and smartlist, with modest amounts of spam fighting advice included. Unfortunately, a lot of the spam fighting advice is wrong, and many of the procmail examples have editing errors that keep them from doing what they are supposed to do.

In a corrected edition, this could be a useful book, but as it stands, you're better off with the O'Reilly Sendmail book and the on-line documentation for the various packages.

Here is a book worthy of the saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover." In this case, you may judge this book to address the general topic of email spam, processing and filtering. Not so. This books focuses on the unix tools, sendmail and procmail. If you are looking for a book to guide you through the process of installing and configuring sendmail and procmail, this may be the book you're looking for. I couldn't tell you because I quit reading at that point. But, if you are looking for a general source on email spam and techniques for reducing or eliminating it, look elsewhere. A better title for this book would have been, "Sendmail and Procmail: Installation and Configuration."

"Removing the Spam" is an excellent book that deals with mail administration in a unix environment. The book is concise and packs a great deal of information in its pages.

The target audience of the book should be beginning and intermediate mail administrators, and the book does a good job of reaching this audience. The first chapter is a well-rounded introduction to mail systems and administration, and how spam is a thorn in the side of a successful mail operation. The books final three chapters deal with sendmail, procmail, and mailing list systems such as majordomo.

"Removing the Spam" is more of a general mail administration title than a book that focuses purely on spam -- although by following the guidelines and suggestions in the book, one will set up a good mail operation with a minimum of spam.

Glory, an orphan of sorts herself, flees a disagreeable home and town, only to find she really doesn't fit in much anyplace. After Poppy dies, she is sought by wicked Uncle Amos. Fleeing, she has to defend her virtue, bearing the guilt of what she left behind. If there is anything wagon master Lincoln does not need, it is another girl to have to care for and transport to his final destination. Stubborn, unlearned and unkempt, Glory is determined to make it on her own. Mystery, action and romance happen in spite of Glory, certainly not because of her.

After the wonderful story of "Hope" I tore into "Glory" like a hungry wolf tears into its prey. Glory, a sheltered mountain girl, is forced to build a life on her own after her Poppy dies. With a bagful of gold and no change of clothes, she sets out in search of a new life. Far too naive for the cold world before her, she ends up on the run from a greedy uncle who wants her gold -- and who will kill her to get it. When she manages to latch on (however unwillingly) to a wagonneer named Jackson and a group of teenaged mail order brides, things REALLY get interesting. In her travels and adventures, Glory grows into a beautiful young woman with an unshakeable faith -- but will her faith be enough to win the heart of the handsome wagonneer? Copeland's "Glory" was glorious. This one's a MUST READ.

GREAT FOR YOUNG READERS, I have read all of the Brides series. This one was wonderful. P L E A S E write more books like this.
