Acknowledgement

Since this is my first book, it's been a great experience and a great honor to get the opportunity to write an update of the great book that Mike Pfeiffer initially wrote for Microsoft Exchange 2010.

I look forward to continuing these kinds of side-projects to my regular work.

There are a lot of people I would like to thank; firstly of course my family, which includes my parents and my fiancée for the love and energy they keep on giving me. Besides my family I want to thank Magnus Björk and Mike Pfeiffer for answering my e-mails when I needed to verify things. I also want to thank Anderson Patricio and Marcelo Vighi for doing great work with the technical review and giving me lots of great feedback.

I hope that you will enjoy the book and that its content will help you to develop your skills in the area.
