I have a problem in that I have 6 solid years of I.T experience but unfortunately it's all been in Lotus Notes houses. I want to change jobs (and go exchange) and my lack of commercial exchange is a real problem. Can anyone suggest any way I can work around this or gap-fil my lack of commercial exchange? I have the MCSE plus messaging and have took a couple of exchange courses but I feel I'm in a chicken and egg scenrio with my exchange (or lack of) skills. I'm in the U.K. TIA from a frustrated techie! -- RCE Defiant

I would suggest installing an Exchange server at home, perhaps in a Virtual Environment. That way, you will at least get some familiarity with it, if not exactly commercial experience.

This link (http://www.exchangemaster.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=28&Itemid=41) is called "Getting Started With Microsoft Exchange". I would personally suggest Virtual Labs on Microsoft Web site, and of course, your own Virtual Environment.
