Obviously you haven't tried setting up an MS Exchange system! Fundamentally, a lot of this stuff *is* complex, which is why companies like O'Reilly can stay in business publishing *books* on these sorts of things. Granted, it can be made dramatically simpler, and avoid all that "archane jargon" (i.e. technical terminology) if one cuts out all the options and variants that one doesn't want or need. The obvious snag is that what you don't want or need may not match what I don't want or need. "Back in the day" you paid money for this sort of software, and went on training courses, and received linear feet of documentation... Don't get me wrong: I've been frustrated by (particularly) the exercise of setting up SSL, and others, but I'd be just as frustrated working around a car engine absent the appropriate technical knowledge.
