Thanks! And thanks for letting me vent! I chose Windows over Unix because
I never wanted to grep or ls or try to remember commands (granted even in
2003 I still had to ESEUTIL and ISINTEG - not sure why those weren't GUI as
well) - If I'm going to have to remember a bunch of commands, I might want
to consider a FREE OS with a solid foundation, less security issues, and
infinite upgradability - just a thought Balmer you worthless, Uncle Fester
Wannabe!

Most of it is in the online docs within the product (which is mostly
identical to docs on microsoft.com).
Exchange Server 2007 Technical Reference | Exchange Management Shell:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124413.aspx
Also, most of the other HOW-TOs throughout other parts of the
documentation illustrate plenty of shell stuff.
Finally, there's good amount of help built-in in the commandlets
themselves - use the get-help CommandName with the -detail or -full
option - lot of it identical to online docs, and in some cases perhaps
more detail than the docs.
Other things to look at: Exchange team blog (msexchangeteam.com), Vivek
Sharma & Evan Dodds' blogs, amongst others on the web. (Helpful tips and
stuff that you may or may not find easily in the docs).
Yes, the product should've shipped with more management GUI in the console
(particularly for beginners/folks who don't need the automation that the
shell provides - particularly in small business space) , and I'm glad most
of that will make it in SP1.

My client insists that I role out Exchange 2007 by the end of April. I
would have to say Exchange 2007 is the most half assed attempt MS has
ever made of releasing a product. It is at best in beta stage as far as
I can see. I've read that all the stuff that 2003 did should be
released by SP1 but that is a long ways off. I don't know any of the
esoteric EMS script commandlets sniglets which are completely required to
administer an Exchange 2007 server. I realize with SP1 that all that
should be back in the EMC like it was in 2000, 2003 but my client won't
wait. Can someone take pity and tell me where all that stuff is really
documented? I see a lot of MS pages telling you about the POWER of EMS-
another way of calling a bug a feature - yeah, we were too lazy to enable
it in the EMC so learn the crazy commands. I can't believe they didn't
at least make batch files that prompted you for variables so you were at
least sure to get the scripting right.
Thanks for your help.
PS. Balmer you blow chunks - Bill wasn't perfect but he'd have fired
half the people responsible for this slip up - you probably congratulated
them and moved them into another winning product department like Zune.
