All users use Outlook Web very well. Now we have a new management person who is Japanese. He has his own notebook with Windows XP Professional SP2 - Japanese version. This notebook has all Windows patches and antivirus , antispyware patches updated. User can use his MS Outlook 2003 to send and received all emails very well. User report that when he travel and he use Outlook Web Access, and compose new email or send any email to his friend who is japanese, it will failed. When he click the send button, the error will popup in japanese font with meaning "MESSAGE CANNOT BE SENT BECAUSE THERE IS NO CODE PAGE FOR THIS LANGUAGE ON THE SERVER. CONTACT THE SERVER ADMINISTRATOR." User can real all emails but cann't send the email. What should I do?

    - POP3 incoming mail not working Please help. I had a nightmareish fortnight - spyware etc (say no more). The bottom line is I had to reinstall just about everything on our network. There are still a few things that need sorting but my main problem is as follows: POP3 accounts do not download on the exchange server The event log goes 1027 - so I can log into the ISP 1029 - so the user name/password bounces (this happenes to all my various ISP accounts so it is not an ISP problem. If I telnet I can log in OK, and if I pop3 into the ISP from a workstation I can download OK and the email goes into the mailbox also there is still an error coming up (Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server' reported error (0x8004010F): 'The operation failed. An object could not be found'. I am sure this is a different issue and I rather sort out one thing at a time but any ideas are appreciated. It almost seems as if the username/password is getting scrambled. I checked for malware - I saw that in one of the discussions in this newsgroup - but that looked clean. Of course I could always carry on using the workstation but it feels a bit like pushing your car around town because you run out of fuel and the engine would not start. The registry entries for the POP3 look alright but then I am not sure if that is the right place to start looking anyway.

    - How do I remove a now defunct old domain from our users' email addresses? We used to have a domain - lets call it olddomain.com - that we sold off to another company. However, we still have the problem that most of our existing users (several hundred), have this domain name as an email alias. Obviously, as the MX records on the internet have changed for olddomain.com, no one externally is going to email our users using these addresses but the IT director would like these entries removed anyway. I do not want to have to remove all of these manually, as that is an extremely laborious task. Is there a way of removing all of these entries together? We have a Windows 2000 domain, and run an Exchange 2003 backend cluster with an Exchange 2003 front end server. All servers are running the latest service packs and patches. Many thanks.

    - How to change default OWA/OMA Port Hi all, One Server 2003 R2 DC with Exchange 2003/SP2. Clients are accessing OWA and OMA remotely and it's working fine. I want to change the port number from 80 to something else for security reasons and I was wondering what's the preferred method. I've tried just redirecting the port numbers on the router (eg: port 4000 -> 80) but you don't get passed the login prompt. Can't seem to find anything useful about this matter on the net either.

Let's say the account is just a regular user and not an admin.

    - A non-delivery report with a status code of 5.3.5 We are a small one domain company and want to move Exchange server to a new computer with a different name in the same routing group. We install Windows 2003 Setandard Server and Exchange 2003 Standard Server with the identical service pack and hotfixes. Then we move one mailbox to the new server and test.

The following error we got: A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients.

    - Configure OWA on a single server Hi all, I am trying to improve my know-how. Therefore, I installed on an old PC at home Windows Server 2003 and Exchange 2003. I had no problem to setup the server and all the mailboxes. However, I was checking the web about a article which tells me how to configure OWA on a single server. I found a lot of information, but I am stocked. Do I need to install ISA? Do you have a link which has some more information to this topic?

    - New Exchange 2003 Mail Account Good Afternoon, I hope everyone is doing well today. We've been using SBS since the 4.5 version I believe. We upgraded to 2000 when it came out and upgraded to 2003 sometime last year I believe. My boss has had his email account through all of the upgrades. His Outlook is very slow and I want to create a new mail account and move his mail items into this new account. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? His PC is moving slow also, so I'm going to wipe it clean and do a fresh install of XP. While I'm doing this, I might as well give him a new mail account in Exchange. I want to know the best way to take the data from his old MailBox and put it into a new mail box. I'm hoping this will fix the problems. I'm thinking because the mailbox dates back to the 4.5 version, I should just create a whole new box. Please advise. Sincerely, Anthony Smith In God We Trust!

    - Protect Exchange - Best way to do this Hi I'm been asked to set up an Exchange server for a small company. (Small business server is not an option). And I'm considering how to make this as secure as possible, after the OS is hardened. Traditionally I've used a simple firewall, and port forward port 25 to the SMTP service on the Exchange. Now the firewall has a dedicated dmz port, and I'm looking at putting this to good use. What do you guys normally do? To you use a *nix based smarthost that is exposed to the internet with port 25 forwarded from the firewall to the nix box, and then relay to exchange, or is it normal to prefer a ISA server in standalone mode with message screener that relays inbound mail to the exchange server? Valuable feedback is much appreciated. /A. Tag: Legacy 5.5 Exchage won't boot, but NEED TO remove it from Exchange 2003 environment Tag: 148320

    - Exchange 5.5 -> Exchange 2003 Migration Hi all, I am working a plan for exchange 5.5 to 2003 migration. Currently, my company is using NT4.0 domain structure, and plan to migration Windows 2003 by ADMT. Our migration plan is :create two ways trust between domains; migrated all users to new domain. Then migrate clients computer account to new domain and clone the security setting; and lastly migrate all others server and it's security setting. Once everything all right, the old NT domain will be removed from the network. Some background of my company: 300~400 users, and around 100 are travell around the world and they will access company network by VPN; 5 sites with 1 PDC and 1 BDC. 20 different type servers, 1 Exchange 5.5 server and 2 OWA server. And here some confusions I want to clarify. 1. when is the best time to migrate exchange 5.5 server to the new domain by ADMT? I am confusing if some roaming users are off site during migration period, Will these users be affected if their PC haven't migrated to new domain. Here I mean could they still check email from the exchange 5.5 when they logon to old NT domain. 2. If user accounts are migrated to new domain and they logon to new domain, but the exchange 5.5 hasn't, can they still check email?? 3. Can I install Exchange 2003 now or I should install it once the exchange 5.5 has been migrated to new domain? Thanks, Andrew Tag: Legacy 5.5 Exchage won't boot, but NEED TO remove it from Exchange 2003 environment Tag: 148316

    - starting POP3 Hi I'm trying to get Client2 to send/receive emails through Exchange. Exchange server (Enterprise) / \ / \ Client1 Client2 Client1: Outlook 2003 setup using Microsoft Exchange Server as server type (Everything is ok with Client1 - sending/receiving internet emails.) Client2: Outlook 2003 setup using POP3 as server type In ESM|FirstOrganization|Servers|MyExServer|Protocols|POP3, the Default POP3 Virtual Server has a red X. Correct me if I'm wrong, for Client2 to connect to the server, the Default POP3 Virtual Server needs to be started. When I tried starting it, an error popped up. POP3 Configuration: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. Check the Windows Event Viewer for details. (I checked the event viewer, and there is no related error.) Also regarding POP connector, I don't need a connector for the above scenario, do I ? Please help.

    - How to 'insert' front end Exchange 2003 server I currently am running 1 Exchange 2003 server (BE) and would like to to add a new Exchange front end server. I would prefer to not have to re-configure each users Outlook settings in order to have them access the FE server instead of the current BE server. I believe I will need to rename the old BE server, and then rename the new FE server to the old BE name. Is this correct? Actually I tried this, and it didn't work. The FE & BE configuration worked, until I changed the server names. Should I do the renaming before installing Exchange on the new FE server? Or is there an other (easier) way of accomplishing this. All servers are running Server 2003 SP1. Exhange is SP2. Thank you for any help. Tag: Legacy 5.5 Exchage won't boot, but NEED TO remove it from Exchange 2003 environment Tag: 148304

    - View permissions Is there a way to have an Exchange folder where you lock down views so that users are not able to change and add views? What I am looking to do is mimic record level permissions using a field on a form that designates who can see that item, then create views for each users with a filter based upon that field. In other words, I have 100 contacts in a folder 30 that are Mike's, 40 that are Jane's and 30 that are Jack's. What I want to do is set it up so that each person can only see their contacts.

    - Is my Public Folder hierarchy width and depth scheme rediculous? I'm trying to decide how to apply the folder width and depth performance information found at this article: "Exchange Public Folder Best Practices: Scalability" http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/exchange/guides/PFBestPrac/ca6f8941-33ae-4d6b-9023-8883114e085d.mspx?mfr=true The article states that no folder should contain more than 10k items and no more than 250 sub-folders, and that folder depth should be preferred over width. I need to store tens of thousands of mail items from thousands of clients in public folders so that all users of the Exchange Server can read them in Outlook. Here's my idea: The emails are going to be organized such that all email from a given client appears in one public folder. The name of the public folder will be the 11 character (max) name of the client. I will create one folder layer of depth per character of the client name, for a total of 11 possible layers of depth. Each layer of depth would have one folder per letter of the alphabet, for a total of 26 folders of width. For example client "Jeffrey" emails would be found at this path: ..\Public Folders\All Public Folders\Clients\j\e\f\f\r\e\y\Jeffrey\ a different client, "Jane", would have emails here: ..\Public Folders\All Public Folders\Clients\j\a\n\e\Jane\ Are there any performance drawbacks with this scheme?

Hi Dude,

Assuming that is the last 5.5 server in the site then those direction are
perfect. If it is the last 5.5 server in the organization then I would
recommend:
