SP2 updates to the Cookbook
One of the projects I have on my mental plate to tackle during the holiday season is taking a look through the Cookbook and making note of any guidance that needs to be updated thanks to the release of Exchange 2003 SP2.
I already have two new recipes mentally running around my head: how to configure SenderID (which, coincidentally, is a talk I'll be giving in April at Exchange Connections Spring 2006), and how to raise the database storage limit from 16GB in Standard Edition. There is some good guidance out there on the net for these topics already, but it would be a nice exercise to squeeze them down into typical cookbook recipe format.
While I'm at it, are there any other things you think we should have included but didn't? While it's way too early to even be thinking about a second edition of the book for Exchange 12 (which is going to change a lot of the recipes pretty drastically, thanks to the power of Monad!), I still want to provide some nice value through this blog.

Not sure if it's a 'cookbook' type problem, but perhaps some explanation in the 'Create user' or 'Create contact' sections about duplicate SMTP addresses. The GUI prevents you from creating these but in vbscript there are no such checks.
I've never understood why Exchange/AD has a restriction on having two contacts with the same SMTP address, as it is not unreasonable to want to have two different objects in a directory, with different names, phone numbers, etc, that happen to share an email address.
