    - Exchange mail protocol question Hi, All! I'm new to this networking thing. Bought a couple books, but still don't understand some things. Trying to set up an admin email account on server. Went to a working workstation to see what the mail servers are and outlook 2003 points to the exchange server. Yet, at the exchange server, none of the mail protocols is activated. ??????? How can that be? How do I figure out what the mail servers are? Thanks, in advance for all your help. B Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684695

    - Email Bouncing Nightmare - Batch Emails Getting Bounced My customer is having a big email problem this weekend. He uses Outlook 2003 and has an Exchange Server. He typically uses his CRM program to send the same email to multiple recipients, sometimes hundreds. Many of them are getting bounced. He is getting tons of System Administrator messages returned to him saying that the email is being delayed. We don't know if they are ever getting sent or not. If he sends 1 or 2 addresses on the address line, then the email goes out OK. The previous version of his CRM program, Maximizer, used the Pervasive database engine. We upgraded him to the latest version, that uses Microsoft SQL Express on the server. He things maybe the change in version of his CRM program may have something to do with this. Now I think that it's just too many adresses on the "To:" line. Anyone ever encounter this or have any tips on why this is happening? much thanks, bill rosman rosman computing Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684693

    - How to Stop Leakage of Internal Mail Server Name & IP in Mail head Hello's, I'm trying to figure out how to stop the "leakage" of my internal mail server names and internal IP addresses. I have 2 Backend Exchange 2003 SP2 servers. Outbound Mail is sent through a smart host. When i send mail from either of these servers to an external account e.g. Gmail and i view the email headers i see the local names of my internal exchange servers and their internal/private IP addresses. Could someone please tell me where this information is leaking from as i would like to plug this hole. For example: Received from Exchange1.abc.local (172.17.0.30) by Mysmarthost.sales.com appears in the mail headers. The server Exchange1.abc.local has a valid global FQDN defined (Exchange1.sales.com) in the Virtual Server properties Yet the local name and IP address show up in the headers. Please advice and thanks in advance. Sky. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684688

    - Edgesync fails subscription I've been running Exchange 2007 SP1 with the Edge role in my lab environment for sometime now and have not experienced any problems. The lab consists of 2 servers: MSG-01 runs all Exchange 2007 roles while EDGE-01 runs the Edge-Gateway role. I attempted to renew the Edge subscription by creating a new XML file on the EDGE-01, copying the file to MSG-01 and importing it. While attempting the import, I got the following error: Error: The version of the Edge subscription doesn't match any Hub Transport servers in the subscribed site. I've verified the following: - DNS resolution works. Each server can resolve the other. - Time syc. Each server has its clock synchronized. - I deleted the Edge subscription from MSG-01 before importing the new XML file. This didn't fix the problem. What is causing this error?

    - Update Rollup 1 Trouble Ever since I installed Update Rollup 1 for Exchange SP1, OWA is not working. Exchange MAPI, ActiveSync and Outlookup Anywhere are working fine. The user can log on to OWA, but they get primitive looking HTML with links that don't work. In the IIS log, most of the Web parts that normally load with OWA show up with 404 errors. Has anyone else seen this? Any idea what may have happened or what to do to fix it? If I don't get any answers I'll uninstall the rollup, but not for now. This is only a test server, so I have some time. Thanks. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684656

    - IMAP4 on Exchange 2007 / Exchange 2007 SP1 Good evening! Okay, I am breaking down and posting this question on IMAP4 in an EXCH2007 environment. Need help setting this up. I believe that I have everything on the server-side configured properly. I am - from the outside - able to telnet to the server via 'telnet mail.mydomain.com 143'. Yes, yes....I know. Now, I am not able to do so when using port 993. I assume that this is a Firewall issue but I can verify this as this is not my client (helping a colleague). Additionally, we can not successfully connect to a mailbox when using OE from the inside. Do not know what the error was as I was not there. Just know that it does not work. I also know (I tried this) that it does not work from the outside (using the proper 'OWA' url). It looks like it is going to and then tells me that the server rejected my credentials. The error code is "Code: 800cccd1". I have tried just about every possibly combination of credentials and it just does not work. Now, I have also looked at the security/authentication. I attempted every combination of credentials (domainname\user and user@domainname.com and domainname\username\alias and a whole bunch of others) under one authentication setting and then changed the authentication to the second one and went through the same set of credentials again and when that did not work I tried the final choice (knowing that it was not going to work as 993 is apparently not open). Anyone have any idea what I have missed? Thanks, Cary PS....really trying to set up some phones that need to use IMAP. Really really really would like to use 993! PSS...does the self-signed cert that Exchange 2007 creates upon installation cause any problems? Apparently this client has not purchased a cert of any sort (UCE from DigiCert would be nice).

    - Exchange 2003 - More Questions about changing SMTP connector from smarthost to direct for outgoing internet mail I had a previous thread going regarding changing our internet mail connector settings on our Exchange 2003 organization so that we're not using the smarthost for outgoing email (incoming email will be going through an antispam/antivirus appliance). I received some good information, but now I have some additional questions regarding this change. We've worked with our internal network group, as well as our ISP and are getting everything ready to switch. 1) Our internal DNS namespace does not match our external one (our internal ones are all ".local"). When we have our one exchange server (the one designated as the "bridgehead") making the outgoing SMTP connections, do I need to have the server supply the external domain name when it makes the initial connections (I thought it was part of the EHLO/HELO sequence). There's no place to change it on the routing connector, but I've looked into it, and it looks like I would change it on the bridgehead's "Default SMTP Virtual Server", "Delivery", "Advanced tab", in the "Fully-qualified domain name" field. Is the correct place? 2) If I change that entry to our external domain name, will it affect mail communication from that server to the other internal Exchange boxes? 3) On that "advanced delivery" tab, there's a button for "external DNS servers". If I put in our ISP's DNS servers on this screen, again, will this affect the internal server to server communications? The regular Windows O/S settings will still point to our internal DNS servers. I had determined previously to use our regular internal DNS servers (they do forward to the outside if necessary), but that was when I thought I had to change the Windows DNS settings. Since this is specific to the email traffic only, should I set the external DNS entries here? 4) In the other thread, I asked about restarting services and was told that the changes take effect almost immediately without a restart. However, as I was looking for the other information above, I found a technet article about setting up SMTP connectors (KB265293). That article said that after making the connector changes, you need to restart the Routing Engine and SMTP services. Since the connector already exists and we're just making changes, will we need to restart the services after changing ? I don't want to do anything to interrupt our mail flow during normal hours. Any information would be appreciated. Mike O. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684652

    - Reconstruct Exchange 2007 database from just log files Is It possible to reconstruct an Exchange 2007 mailbox database from just log files?

    - Exchange Shell - Not a technical question as such As a windows and exchange admin I welcome the powershell capabilities for cli management and scripting, but am puzzled at the fact that it is not an either / or management paradigm. The fact that so much is deliberately omitted from the Exchange GUI that must be done from the shell seems somewhat perverse and I can only think this is a marketing sop to pander to the growing influence of linux admins who demand cli and eschew any form of gui as a point of principle. As an example I have just had to construct a PS command of over 100 chars to configure address re-writing on an edge server, which took a while to research the correct params and syntax and then accurately type it in. In the sane world a right click and quick filling in of 2 fields in a form would suffice. Most admins I know dont have the luxury of working full-time on 1 BO product to become that familiar with the large no of cmdlets and complex syntax, (and also dont need to prove how good they are by exhibitingthe faculty of memorizing 100 char commands to fulfil simple tasks). If there is a rationale behind this strategy I would welcome being better informed. Thanks, Geejay Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684624

    - Problem with unicode characters in smtp mail We have some service that sends updates, it can send the updates in various languages, sometimes with country specific chacters, and they will show up as corrupted characters, usually as squares or question marks. We never had this issue with 5.5 Internet Mail Connector. I noticed that if I use Outlook Express, the mail same content does not get corrupted, but this could be html email thing as opposed however this other service is encoding the text. I'm guessing 5.5 just converted the text into english equivalents (I'm helping support an issue that I don't know the complete history of). I just know it worked somehow better with 5.5 than it does with 2007. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684602

    - SPAM Survey - delete or filter? So, with the various anti-spam solutions you all run, do you delete all the SPAM on receipt and take your chances with false-positives, or do you filter it into a folder (e.g. Junk Email) for your users to have a chance to dig through before it gets deleted? We do the latter, but with the volume constantly increasing it's becoming impractical, so are considering doing the former. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684595

    - size of Outlook rules on Exchange server According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886616 there is 32 kB (or 32 KiB?) per user on the Exchange server to save the rules defined in Outlook. One of our users got the error: One or more rules could not be uploaded to Exchange server and have been deactivated. This could be because some of the parameters are not supported or there is insufficient space to store all your rules. I checked her rules, and all of them are of the type: incoming mail - if sender = email address - move to folder. The folder exists, it is not moved or deleted. I cannot find unsupported parameters so it must be a size issue. It is true that she has many rules. I have been helping her to clean up her rules, but without good results. I feel like I'm doing shotgun debugging. I change one thing, cross my fingers, and try to save. Most of the time it doesn't work. I'm working in the dark. Is there any way I can see the current size of the Oulook rules? I would like to find out, for every little change I make to a rule, how many bytes I save. Versions: Exchange 2003, Outlook 2003.

    - Replication issues Schedule+ Free Busy information folder (c1041722) Hello, For the Groupwise calendar connector we need te replicate the public folder Schedule+ Free Busy information. The backend server called ex001 is a cluster server. This server (ex001) is owner Schedule+ Free Busy information folder. The server ex006 (bridgehead) is added to the replication of the Schedule+ Free Busy information folder. When you look at the replication status you see that: ex001 => In Sync ex006 => Local Modified When I try to Synchronize Content on the ex001 => it works. When I try to Synchronize Content on the ex006 you get an error "ID no: c1041722". When I add a new public folder called "test" then the same problem exists. When I replicate a public folder between ex005(an other exchange server) and ex006 there replication is working normal. Seems the problem is on the ex001 server. The question is how to resolve the replication problem between the servers. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684560

    - Cert Hi, I just purchased a SAN certificate from GoDaddy. I am having a hard time finding out what url's I should be adding. Oh, I purchased this for Exchange 2007 SP1 std. Single Domain.

The address people will use to get to owa from the outside is, mail.domain.com In the certificate I think I need these, Common Name = mail.domain.com SAN names 1. mydomain.domain.com 2. namex64.mydomain.domain.com 3. autodiscover.mydomain.domain.com Then I'm not sure what else I need.

    - Direct Push and HTML emails Hi All, To set the scene, we have exchange 2003 and mobile 5/6 devices connecting to our server with direct push. We are currently migrating from Blackberry to WM6 devices. We have a legacy application which generates HTML e-mails and sends these to our exchange server for our users. Using Direct Push, the following message is shown to the user when trying to view an e-mail "This mail item is in HTML format, but your mailer is not configured to display this format." except when the user has a blackberry account and device, (in this case, the message is shown as expected - stripped of HTML and in plain text). As we are using Outlook 2007, the messages are sent using HTML, and as these are stripped of html and shown to the user? So surely these generated e-mails should be the same?

We are using Veritas 6.0 and when I attempt to restore the storage group to my temporary location, I get the following error: error writing file: e:\exchsrvr\recovery storage group. disk full at byte 0; wanted buffer size: 63488.

    - DST Patches - Invite Attendees issue Hi, Here in NZ we changed our Daylight Savings dates, and subsequently patches all our exchange boxes and workstations etc. We have now discovered a new issue with the DST changes. Daylight savings in NZ has been extended to start 1 week earlier and finish 2 weeks later. Daylight savings would have changed this weekend, however is changes in 2 weeks time. We are only having problems with appointments NEXT WEEK, not this week, and I presume any time outside of those three weeks. When we invite attendees to appointments within the extended DST weeks, appointments appear 1 hour late to the invited attendee. For example, if I send someone an appointment for 9 am, their appointment appears for 10 am. This is happening with all users and servers being within the NZ timezone, all workstations and servers running DST patches, and only within the new DST weeks as mentioned. If anyone has any advice on what we can do to fix this issue, it would be appreciated. This is only a problem with invitations from what we have gathered so far.

    - Public Folder Permissions Hello there, I am trying to setup some public folders to receive faxes for each of our offices, and departments. I have been able to setup the folders without any problems, but securing them is a different story. In my pubic folders I have /Fax/Office1Fax /Fax/Office2Fax /Fax/Office2DepartmentFax Now I would like to secure them with a dynamic group we have for each office. However it does not seem to work. Is there any way to set the permissions on these by group rather than by user. I dont want to manage each fax folder per user. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684524

    - Is there a Way to Find Out the Sender? Hi All: If a user has send As permission to a mailbox xyz and he sends a message to someone using xyz in the FROM field (so its coming from user xyz), is there a way to find out who actually sent this email? For example charles has sendAs permissions to a user mailbox called xyz. Charles changes the From field of the message from charles to xyz. Other users have sendAs permissions to xyz as well. Looking for a way to find out which user actually sent the message out of all users that have SendAs permissions. Well, we have a long list of users that have SendAs permission to the mailbox in question so cant figure it out that way (just see who has SendAs permissions). Thanks in advance!

    - Quarantine functionality not working - release messages and view S Hi, I'm using E2K7 with SP1 and edge servers. The configured quarantine mailbox is receiving mail, but any messages that are being released are sent from the quarantine account rather than the sender account. In addition, exposing the SCL value of the item to help with adjusting thresholds only shows the SCL of the quarantine NDR (which is usually -1) and not of the original message. The original SCL is also not present in the included header. Is this possible and if not, how do you manage the quarantine? Guy Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684521

When I open up IIS, and I click to expand my server name (a windows 2000 SBS machine) and then expand the "Default Wed Site which we are using to provide remote Outlook Web Access (OWA) (using an SSL certificate), I see a red stop sign with the word "Error" written iside - to the left of the "Public", "Exchange" and "Exadmin" components.

    - System error ??? I am getting an error msg in the system log "The kerberos client received a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error from the server host/sihfmx.sihf.org. The target name used was SIHFEXCH01. This indicates that the password used to encrypt the kerberos service ticket is different than that on the target server. Commonly, this is due to identically named machine accounts in the target realm (SIHF.ORG), and the client realm." I can not recall making any changes. Any ideas on how to approach this/fix it?

    - anti-spam isn't working My anti-spam filtering isn't working. I'm running Ex 2007 std. On my CAS/Hub Transport server I have some Event ID 1022 errors Anti-spam agents are enabled, but the list of internal SMTP servers is empty. If there are any MTAs between this server and the Internet, populate this list by using the Set-TransportConfig cmdlet in the Exchange Management Shell. I added the IP of my CAS/hub transport server but not sure if that was a good idea. when I ran get-antispamupdates, the version look old even though it is set to 'automatic' [PS] C:\>get-antispamupdates UpdateMode : Automatic LatestContentFilterVersion : 3.3.6313.600 SpamSignatureUpdatesEnabled : True LatestSpamSignatureVersion : 3.3.6313.550 IPReputationUpdatesEnabled : False LatestIPReputationVersion : 3.3.4604.001 MicrosoftUpdate : Configured my CAS server also had 1017 event for update service. ********************* Microsoft Exchange couldn't successfully use the Microsoft Update agent: Exception from HRESULT: 0x80072EE2.

    - denying access to public folders... We have several security "groups" configured on our SBS 2000 domain. For some if these groups, I want to prevent access to just a few of the various public folders we have and for other groupls I want to prevent ALL access to public folders . Is there an easy way to prevent a "group" from accessing a public folder? It looks like rights have to be specified on a per user basis... This is very tedious and I am sure there must be an easier way! I even tried setting permissions on the folders directly in the Exchange System Manager but that didn't seem to affect anything at all. In my outlook 2002 client, when I right click a public folder and select properties->permissions, it does not show any user groups there to choose from - only individual users... Help!

    - Exchange Wake up on LAN Hello, We are having lot of power issues and sometimes our servers shutdown in the middle of the night. Here is something I want to implement. We have 2 servers AD server and exchange server 2003 std. I want to change the boot options for AD server to Restore on AC power loss and exchange to Wake up on LAN. I will put a script to turn on the exchange on AD server startup. (I assume that AD server should be available for exchange before it is powered up for proper operation. I turned both at the same time and exchange did not work properly) How do I run the script without someone actually have to log into the AD server. Can a script be run without logging on. Does this whole thing sounds reasonable or am I missing something basic here. Appreciate your replies! Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684511

    - Routing Group Master Deleted We were setting up a new network for a client. We had a server called xyz-exchange. We installed Exchange 2007 on it, but never went live. This is a new exchange implementation, so no other servers were out there. The server crashed due to some other issues. We rebuilt it from scratch since there was no data on it. The only difference is we renamed it xyz-exch. So, the name changed. We reinstalled Exchange 2007 on it. I believe that we have everything working, however, when I run the Best practices Analyzer, I get a message(error) that states the routing master has been deleted. When I expand the message, it is pointing to the old server name, xyz-exchange and not the new xyz-exch. So, I guess my first question is how do I resolve this error? Is there something in AD pointing to it or is it in the exchange box? My other question is that why do I even have a routing master since I am not connecting back to an Exchange 2003 box? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tag: Out of Office / OOF only working half way... Tag: 684496

I'm confused by my OOF situation...

It works fine when configured through OWA regardless of location.
It does not work when I'm at the office.
It works fine when I'm on our VPN (same subnet as at the office).
It works fine when using Outlook Anywhere.

I've been through all the Autodiscover help I can find, as well as
some Out of Office troubleshooting / suggestion sites I've found; I'm
just not getting anywhere. Autodiscover seesm to be fine, as my
Outlook 2007 clients configure themselves, and free/busy seems to be
working without incident.

We have a single AD forest and Exchange 2007 is configured to accept
mail on six different domains. Different internal companies have
different UPN's, and email address policies are in place based on
company. All that seems to work fine...

Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
