    - Exchange 2007 - Send Connectors Hi, Is it possible to do the following with send connectors in Exchange 2007? 1) Have high priority email use connector "a" and low priority to use connector "b" and normal to use connector "c"? 2) Prevent an individual user from accessing connector "a"? 3) Prioritize connectors to use "a" before "b"? 4) Schedule connector "a" to be available in the evening and "b" to be available in the day time?

    - New exchange server My exchange serverâ??s hardware needs replacing, I have the following plan but thought I share my plan with someone experienced to make sure I am taking the correct approaches and to learn if I am missing aything. Existing Exchange2003 server is currently installed on a windows 2000 server that is also a DC. Single domain no other exchange or mail servers exist except the one I plan to remove. My action plan is; to Install exchange on a windows 2003 R2 server as additional exchange to the domain, then move all mail boxes and public folders, then make it frontend server, Change NAT address at the firewall to point to new server that has new name and IP address. DCpromo the old server, uninstall exchange, remove the server from domain. Please someone experienced, let me know what you thinkâ?¦..Will OWA be automatically point to new server?

    - Install Order - Server Roles - E2007 I know the install order is: Client Access Server Hub Transport Mailbox server UM We do not have enough money to split the CAS & MB role; so, I plan to install CAS & MB on one server and then I will have a separate Hub Transport server. Question: Using the above scenario, do I install the CAS & MB server and then do the Hub Transport immediately after? thanks -Harri Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159953

    - OWA Self signed certificate and Outlook 2007 Hi too all, i'm new to this group, I hope you can help me. I use OWA to access my mail on a https:// server but the certificate was self signed, as you can see on: http://clientes.netvisao.pt/mferra/4.png I have tried to import the certificate into Internet Explorer's Trusted Root Certification Authorities (under Tools, Internet Options, Content), but that warning always appears. The problem is that that I'm trying to use Microsoft Outlook 2007 to access, through RPC I think, the OWA site. But, because of the certificate, I get this error: http://clientes.netvisao.pt/mferra/3.png How can I access my mail in Outlook 2007 and how can import the certificate?

    - OWA Login Screen Doesn't Load Hello, We currently use Exchange 2000 and it is working fine. However, the OWA won't load properly. The authentication screen comes up, but no matter what username and password I use it comes back with this message: HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed Internet Information Services Sometimes it will load, but only show the directory on the server. It will never show the regular OWA screen. The Inbox, Deleted Items and other folders will show, but not the default screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - exchange 2007 installation deathlock... Hi group, i had install ex2007 in an existing ex2003 domain (single). there are 2 ex2007 server one in the perimeter (CA und HT role) and one in the internal net (MB role). For the time of setup der FW rule is any2any. the CA and HT server works fine. The MB server ist reachable via console, i can create users and mailboxes, sending- receiving mails inside the ex2007s but sending mail from the 2003 to 2007 fails. the best practices analyser report that the mailbox role is configured partially and suggest to rerun setup. rerun setup causes the following errors: "Unexpected Error" and "Service 'MSExchangeTransportLogSearch' is not installed on this server". Uninstalling the hole ex2007 will result in the following error: "Process execution failed with exit code 5". Once runnig the uninstallation setup prevents installing any role on the system... any ideas to solve this mess? josh Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159942

    - Exchange 2003 front-ends in mixed mode Can anyone tell whether one Exchange 2003 front-end server would be sufficient in a mixed-mode environment with Exchange 2003 and Exchange 5.5 servers with several sites (read: administrative groups)? I am talking only about technical functionality, not load handling etc. There are about 15 sites, of which some sites have Exchange 5.5 servers, some both 5.5 and 2003 and some only Exchange 2003 servers. The front-end server would be used to access ActiveSync for users that have their mailbox on 2003 servers. The main question is that is it enough to have only one front-end server in one site, or should each site to be accessed have its own front-end server? Again, only mails on 2003 servers would be accessed, there's no need to access 5.5 servers through front-end servers. The 2003 servers reside in different sites.

    - Exhchange migration and old server decomission Hi, I am nearing the completion of an exchange migration. The old server is exchange 2003 standard (DC), the new on Exchange 2003 standard (not DC). I have added the server to the organisation and migrated across all user accounts to the new server, and moved the public fodlers. I am now wondering the following regards to steps i need to take to decomission: - do i migrate the system accounts - System Attendant, System Mailbox, SMTP (<old Server) or do i leave these on the old server for when i decomission it. - do i need to do anything to the new server to make it the primary server in the organisation. - how do i actually take the exchange server out of the organisation. The server will actually remain on the network performing DC roles for the time being, and also some other bits and piecies. I want to remove its exchange role before removign its other roles Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159931

    - Query-based Distribution Groups Hi, In Exchange 2003, I created Query-based Distribution Groups using the AD fields Company and Street Address. In 2007, I see these were copied over to Recipient Configuration >> Distribution Group and renamed Dynamic Distribution Group. However, I am unable to edit the conditions. But seeing how I only have a few of these, I thought I would recreate them in 2007. I find that when I create a new Dynamic Distribution Group, I only have three conditions to choose from. Company is available, but Street Address is not (I suppose this needs to be created with the shell!). So I skipped the Street Address and used only "Recipient is in a Company". I copied/pasted from an Exchange 2007 Mailbox user's "Organization - Company" field, so there can't be any typo's. I also change the filter to "All recipient types". When I click Preview, nothing displays. Is there some trick in 2007 that I need to know about to make Dynamic Distribution Groups work?

    - Exchange 2007 - Recipient Policies Hi, In Exchange 2003, I had two E-Mail Addresses recipient polices that migrated over to Exchange 2007 Organization Configuration > Hub Transport > E-Mail Address Policies tab. When I try to edit them, a message displays that they must be upgraded using the 'Set-EmailAddressPolicy' task with the Exchange 2007 Recipient Filter specified. Is this something I can do now, or should I wait until after I'm no longer in co-existence mode with Exchange 2003? Also,in Exchange 2003, I had one Mailbox Manager Settings recipient policy. Where is this located in Exchange 2007? Thanks! --- Bob Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159929

    - Exchange 2007 - Hub Transport Hi, In Exchange 2003, I had the following options in its SMTP Connectors that I can not find in Exchange 2007 that doesn't have an Edge Transport server. Content Restrictions - Allowed priorities (High, Normal and Low) Delivery Options - Connection time Address Space - Cost (where I can configure which connector to use before another) Delivery Restriction - (where I could restrict particular users from using certain connectors. I used this to restrict a user that sent tons of solicitations (spam like), to use a connector that wouldn't block her after 500 emails/hour. I never could get it to work however). I do not see these options available in 2007 under Organization Configuration > Hub Transport > Send Connector tab. Both servers are running in transition mode so all these settings came over from Exchange 2003. Any idea where these settings are now located?

    - Moving Exchange folders I have inherit a SBS 2003 server where the previous admin install all the exchange folders at the root of a drive (like E:\bin\ ; E:\exchweb; and so on), instead of putting it inside its own folder. (E:\Exchsrvr\...) so as you can imagine that drive has multiple folders that mix with other share folders making it very unorganized. I have been moving the mailbox databases and vsi1 folder, but still have more to move. Is there a document(s) that can point me on the right direction to correct this matter. The exchange db are not that big yet but I would like to avoid a reinstallation of the Exchange system. Thanks Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159912

    - Exchange Server 2007 - Hub Transport rules (Phasing out 2 domain) Let's say we have two domains; DomainA and DomainB. Eventually the goals are to phase-out DomainA and only use DomainB. Currently it's transparent to users within the organization as to which domain they are receiving mail from. This makes it difficult for them to notify senders or listservs who are sending mail to DomainA.com to now use DomainB.com. Is there a way for me to attach a message, overlay, tag, or notify them? We are currently using exchange 2003; however we are making a transition to exchange 2007 in the near future. Thank you Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159910

    - Exchange 2003 Open Relay By Default Hi! I have set up an Exchange Server 2003 machine with SP2 on a Windows Server 2003 SP2 server. I have tested my server against www.dnsgoodies.com (Open Relay check utility) to see if my server is not by any chance acting as an open relay. In fact, it seems to act as an open relay since I get the following message (a little modified by myself, of course): << 220 mail.mybusiness.com Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 6.0.3790.3959 ready at Sat, 4 Aug 2007 17:41:48 +0200 >> HELO 192.168.4.152 << 250 mail.mybusiness.com Hello [209.159.62.152] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- >> MAIL FROM:<spammer@192.168.4.152> << 250 2.1.0 spammer@192.168.4.152....Sender OK >> RCPT TO:<spammee@81.52.251.115> << 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for spammee@81.52.251.115 >> RSET << 250 2.0.0 Resetting ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- >> MAIL FROM:<spammer@192.168.4.152> << 250 2.1.0 spammer@192.168.4.152....Sender OK >> RCPT TO:<"spammee@81.52.251.115"> << 250 2.1.5 "spammee@81.52.251.115"@mybusiness.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WARNING! Our tests indicate your mail server allows open relay. I have not opened anything from the default configuration. In fact, I can't say if the warning is to be taken seriously. However, I noticed that if I turn off the Anonymous Access (enabled by default), I don't get the dnsgoodies warning any more. The thing is that I don't know if this could impact the proper working of the Exchange server. I turned off the Anonymous Access by unchecking this check box: Exchange System Manager First Organization (Exchange) Administrative Groups First Administrative Group Servers MYSERVER Protocols SMTP right click on Default SMTP virtual server, and Properties click on the Access tab in the Access Control part, click on the Authentication button uncheck Anonymous Access Any idea? Am I really an open relay if I leave Anonymous Access checked? Do I really need to uncheck it? Is is safe? Help appreciated. Nicolas Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159906

    - Migrating Exchange from SBS 2003 I posted my original question in the SBS 2003 newsgroup, but I believe I may find better help here when it comes to the Exchange portion of my problem! I included my previous post and response information so you have a good idea of what I'm running into. Thanks! -------- Here's where my project stands now: We're looking to migrate to entirely new server equipment, as opposed to using the transition pack on our current SBS 2003 server. To be honest, over the past two years we truly haven't attempted to utilize it to its full potential, but after testing it out with a small number of our users, we have decided to expand these services to the rest of our company. We understand that we'll take a loss of not being able to use the SBS CALs we've already purchased, but in the long run we feel we'll come out better this way. So here's what I'm trying to do, as opposed to using the Transition Pack. I am following a guide on msexchange.org (http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Migrating-Small-Business-Server-2003-Exchange-Standard-Part2.html, and Part 1 as well) as a basis for this test. I currently have a backup copy of SBS 2003 running under VMWare, as well as two other Server 2003 instances. Pretty much I'm setting it up as it is in the guide and as it turns out, this is most likely a setup we would like to move to for our company as well. We have another software package that we want to convert from an old AIX machine to Server 2003 and will run that along with file sharing functions on the DC server, and then we will run Exchange 2003 on a totally seperate machine. I could most likely throw everything on a single machine, but I get the feeling I don't realllly want to do that. So, in my VMWare network, I have already gotten everything moved over per that guide (which is supposed to be a guide to migrate from SBS2003 to Server 2003, it seems to have a few missing details however). I'm currently on the step entitled: "Designate another server to be the routing group master", which is found in the link I gave above. So far everything else has gone without a hitch, but now it gets to this part about expanding the "Routing Groups", found underneath the First Administrative Group in the Exchange System Manager. Funny thing here, I don't have that listed on either my SBS 2003 server OR my second Server 2003 VM running Exchange 2003! Now that all the background has been explained, my basic question here is: How do I designate the new Exchange server as the routing master, if it does not have this option listed under either server? Instead of Routing Groups, I have a folder called "Connectors" under which I find "SmallBusiness SMTP connector" and "POP3 Connector Manager" on the SBS machine.

    - Problems when uninstalling Exchange 2007 Hello everybody. we currently have an existing Exchange 2003 environment and planned to migrate to Exchange 2007. Due to language problems (domain completely in german, Exchange 2007 in english) we tried to uninstall the Exchange 2007 server. When we try to uninstall the server via add/remove programs we get this error message: "Summary: 1 item(s). 0 succeeded, 1 failed. Elapsed time: 00:00:13 Mailbox Role Prerequisites Failed Error: Uninstall cannot continue.

As this was not successful we installed SP1 beta for Exchange 2007 because there is a management GUI for the public folders. In some system public folders like "store events" we can see that the server is still replicating with our Ex2003 server. If we try to remove our main exchange server here we'll get this error message: "The following error(s) occurred while saving changes: set-publicfolder Failed Error: The parameter "Replicas" cannot be $null or an empty array." Can anybody tell us how we can remove all replicas on the Exchange 2007 server and finally uninstall it? Thanks in advance, Martin Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159880

    - Ex2003 Front end weirdness we had the original exchange cluster and 2 front end servers. A consultant came in and said to scrap it all. This was before me ;) So after the new cluster was up, I went through the process of removing the front end servers to rebuild them (they were thoroughly screwed up) They were named FEEX01 and FEEX02 Here is what I did. Uninstalled exchange Removed them from the domain Deleted their objects in AD So today I go about installing the first new FE server. I installed w2k3 ent (named it FEEX1) Patched it up Added it to the domain Moved it to the proper OU Installed exchange Patched up exchange I don't have access to the â??Domain Exchange Serversâ?? group, so i was about to contact HQ to put the server in it for me. Then I saw there was a new server present in System manager, in our Admin group calledâ?¦â?¦â?¦â?¦FEEX02 ?!? I specifically renamed the new servers to avoid any conflicts. Iâ??m completely stumped. The only thing I can figure is that there was some objects left in AD after the old servers were removed. Anyone seen this? Should I be looking with ADSIEDIT for references to the old servers? Thank you... Lars Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159875

    - Cross organization migration using shared SMTP namespace Hi I am curerntly designing a migration path from one forest to another, including Exchange 2003. The tricky part is that the new forest should hold the same SMTP domain as the former while migrating I want to be able to move users gradually and still retain proper mail delivery from either forest. I suggest using the SMTP adress space sharing method as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321721/en-us. Here is what i would like to do... For simplicity let's call the old forest "forestA.local" and the new "forestB.local" and the shared SMTP domain "shared.domain" On the Exchange server in forestA.local i would change the recipient policy so the Exchange server is not authoritative for the shared.domain SMTP domain. I would then create a SMTP connector that forwards mails for the shared.domain SMTP domain to the Exchange server in forestB.local. Restart routing and SMTP services on Exchange server in forestA.local. On the Exchange server in forestB.local i would change the recipient policy so the Exchange server is not authoritative for the shared.domain SMTP domain. I would then create a SMTP connector that forwards mails for the shared.domain SMTP domain to the Exchange server in forestA.local. Restart routing and SMTP services on Exchange server in forestB.local. For having proper adress list population i would create contacts for the mail recipients in the opposite forests. Is this a feasible way of sharing a SMTP namespace while making a gradual migration? Would it be better to use the "Forward all mail with unresolved recipients to host" in either end instead? What are the risks for creating mailloops, where mails are routed forever? Any input very much appeciated Regards Søren Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159874

    - What is Outlook Anywhere and how does this compare to Outlook Web Access? Hi, I have Exchange 2007 and its Outlook Web Access with SSL on IIS. I presume this means that when the users logs onto OWA, via https://myserver/owa/, that their user id and password are encrypted. I notice that during the entire OWA session, the url remains https and therefore I guess this means all views in OWA are encrypted also (although in my case, IE says I have a "certificate error" because I used the default SSL that Exchange installed and didn't bother going to a certificate authority). I keep hearing about Outlook Anywhere and the little reading I did about it, seems to indicate it does the same thing as OWA. So my question is: What is Outlook Anywhere and how does this compare to Outlook Web Access? Thanks! --- Bob Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159861

    - Exchange 2K7 OWA Login with e-mail address (not the same as domain OK, this is another hosting question. I host multiple companies on my Exchagne 2007 server. I want to use the e-mail address of the user to identify who it is. This works great if the users e-mail address contains the domain that the Exchange Server is located in. However, the other companies with a different e-mail address from the domain do not authenticate. Since a single e-mail address can only be assigned to a single object, how can I use it to uniquely identify the person for authentication purposes in OWA?

    - Exchange 2K7 Address List filters & permissions I have done some searious searching on this and have not found the answer. I will be hosting mulitple companies on my Exchange 2007 server. I have created seperate mailbox stores for each company. I have created a new address list for each company using the custom attribute 15 and the company name. I have also created seperate Offline Address books and assigned them to each mailbox store. That being said, Outlook displays the proper addres list for each recipient. My problem is that if you click the drop down, you can see the other company's address lists. I cannot seem to find how to change the permissions so only the people in the address list and view that particular address list. I must be missing something, but can't figure it out.

    - PrepareAD Hanging Hi I am having problems setting up EX2007 in our test domain, it is always hanging at the same point. when i first ran set up i got an error about an object in AD but when i looked for this object it had gone, i then ran setup again and it got past the original point and then appeared to hang, so i terminated it. After looking in the logs it appeared to be hanging whilst modifying the AD. I have since tried running the basic setup from the command prompt, it prepared the legacy permissions and schema without problems, but when i run setup.com /preparead it gets to the preparing organisation part and sticks at 31%, i left it to run and it was still there after about 6 days. I have since tried running it on the domain controllers but get the same problem. It has created the groups in AD and appears to have set the relevant user permissions on the users i have checked. There are >30000 test student accounts which is why i thought it might just be taking its time and all the machines are just VM's. The organisation has got an Ex2003 server in it and is in W2003 native mode, both dc's have SP2. I am using the domain administrator account which has schema admin privileges, and i have also tried removing the administrator profile as i have seen mentioned in several articles. Is this something someone can help with, i need to upgrade this domain before i start on our live one! thanks Jeff Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159831

    - Can't change settings on EX2007 Public Folders using PFDAVAdmin I have a new Exchange 2007 environment. Technically, it is an upgrade from 2003, since I installed a 2003 test server to start creating mailboxes and dist groups while waiting for the 64-bit hardware to arrive. We got the 2007 boxes set up, external connectors working OK, and now we're trying to set up a vacation calendar in a public folder. I was able to create a public folder using the Exchange Management Shell. It shows up in the hierarchy when I try to add a new Calendar items folder in from Outlook 2003. But Outlook says I don't have permissions to create subfolders. So I did some searching, and found out about PFDAVAdmin and downloaded it. I connect to my mailbox server where my PFs are defined, but when I try to expand Public Folders in the tree, it says "Could not expand https://lei-exchg1/ExAdmin/Admin/LEISUREARTS.COM/Public%20Folders/: Name cannot begin with the '0' character, hexadecimal value 0x30. Line 1, position 402." If I right-click and select Folder Permissions, I get the dialog and can add my user name and set permissions, but it won't save them (OK button doesn't save and close the dialog). If I try to get the Properties of the Default public folder object in ESM2003 (I haven't removed the 2003 test server yet, because some things we've needed like EXMERGE to get our existing mailbox contents from our previous corporate parent don't work with 2007), I get "The operation failed due to an invalid format in the HTTP request. Verify that the host header is correct for the virtual server." It's sounding like Exchange allowed me to create something with an invalid name that it now won't let me read back and correct.

    - Email Retention Policy We have Exchange 2003. Small network about 100 users. I have users that have kept every single email ever received and sent to them. I do have a limit on the mailbox size so they eventually have to go in and clean out. However, by allowing the users to do this from day 1 has caused this great need to keep everything and no one is open to the idea of purging or retaining emails from a specific amount of time, i.e. 6 months seems reasonable. If I wanted to implement a time on all of the emails in the information store, what is the best way to go about doing this? Should I have each user take responsibility and archive anything older than 6 months and then make the setting changes on the server? Are there any other variables I need to be concerned with? Is there a Microsoft white paper that addresses setting up these time frames? The information store has grown to 7gb. That is ridiculous for a network of this size in my opinion.

    - Groupwise to Exchange 2007 migration Is there a size ratio of the database per mailbox when migrating from groupwise 6.5 to exchange 2007? Tag: Exchange 2003 ActiveSync Front/Back End question Tag: 159800

I have an Exchange 2003 server.
Last year I migrated everything from my Exchange 2000 server to the 2003
server successfully.
The Windows 2000 server w/ Exchange 2000 is still in my Active Directory but
all the mailboxes have been moved to the new server. It's been sitting ther
"idle" for a couple years now.

Recently, some employees got some "smart phones" and I have been trying to
get activesync working. I can not get it to work properly and I found a MS
support article about Exchange being a front end server. If I go into my new
Exchange 2003 server and try to click the option to make it a front end
server I get an error message (sorry I don't know what it says.)

Could my new server, in fact be a back end server? and the 2000 server be
working as a front end server?

I would eventually like to get rid of the 2000 server. Should I just
uninstall Exchange 2000 on the old server?

Hi Jeff,

I guess you cannot check the option as your Exchange 2003 is already hosting
mailboxes. Frontend servers cannot host mailboxes. As every Exchange 2003
hosts OWA/OMA/etc. you should be able to use the backend server from your
PDA.
