Fortunately, Windows IT Pro magazine authors and experts Tony Redmond and Paul Robichaux are ready to help you learn the basics of using PowerShell commands to perform common Exchange management tasks, including how to set up and customize EMS, manipulate mailboxes and groups, and enable local continuous replication.
