Contributor and Technical Editor
Liz Mason (MCSE, MCT, CTT) is founder and CEO of MicroStaff
Information Technology (www.microstaffit.com), a consulting and
training firm specializing in Microsoft BackOffice services. Liz
has not strayed far from the server room in the past 18 years:
She worked for NCR Corporation, starting in 1984, where she
did development on MailReady, a C/UNIX messaging product. At
NCR, she performed a variety of technical functions, from devel-
oping and maintaining NCR’s UNIX SVRV.4 operating system,
utilities, and applications, to international support for LAN/WAN
communications. When Microsoft introduced Windows NT, NCR
assigned a team to the BackOffice products, and Liz was given
EMS/Exchange. She has worked closely with the Exchange per-
formance team at Microsoft for nearly two years on under-
standing server scalability and performance issues.
In 1995, Liz founded MicroStaff, a Microsoft Solution Provider
and Certified Technical Education Center. From her first project
in Exchange migration at Shell Oil, to supporting and training
the military, various government agencies, and Fortune 500
companies, Liz has continued to take on roles of support ana-
lyst, trainer, author, administrator, and consultant for Exchange
and clustering. Liz was co-author for Exchange Administrator
Survival Guide (Exchange 4.0). She has also developed three
courses on Clustering for Windows NT utilizing Exchange and
SQL, two administrator courses on Exchange 5.0 and 5.5, as
well as end-user manuals for Microsoft Outlook. She, and the
team at MicroStaff, has focused on supporting and educating
their clients on Exchange, clustering, Windows NT/2000, IIS,
SMS, and disaster recovery.
