Frankly, I don't understand it either but that's just the attitude where I work. I do ask for help when I need it, which is why I use this and other lists. However, about six weeks ago, the CIO told me that I needed to know how to do everything on our network and he never wanted me to tell him that I didn't know how to do something. Kind of sucks. Fortunately, he left.

Agreed 100%. Used to work around people that wouldn't ask for help as they saw it as a flaw. Don't understand the perspective at all.

Yes, this list can be considered a tool, much like tech support. Would I accuse you of not being able to do your job participating here? Probably not. I don't care if your company has ALL the MCSE's. Very few of them wrote the friggin' products. The diversity of Microsoft's products alone does not allow for knowing everything. Or even remotely close. -----Original Message----- From: Greg Page To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Sent: 9/29/01 4:39 PM Subject: RE: Is it possible to open the edb file and recover a users email ? Mine, and I sure as h*ll don't like it. See the answer to Jamie Arnold's message. To be quite honest with all of you, the first time I saw Exchange was 10 months ago when the company moving into the building hired me to run their corporate network. I did Notes before. That's one of the many reasons this list, and others, is so valuable. William - check out our web site to see how technical we are. We're not just a support or services company.

What kind of job description holds the title "must know everything"? I'm not sure what high tech companies you're talking about, but wasting time figuring out something that a tech phone call could have solved hours ago is bad practice. Vendor Tech support is one of the tools at your disposal for troubleshooting, especially when it comes to software. Software has bugs. Generally most bugs aren't even discovered until after release. Often they are communicated to the software vendor through tech support calls.

In a high tech company, calling tech support is considered a sign of not knowing your job.

A very pricey acronym. They wanted $120K a year from us to start. That's a lot for a 200 person company.
