    - Exchange 2007 - No incomimg mail - URGENT HELP REQUIRED Hi, I posted this question already a while a go but did not get an answer. So trying now again. we recently installed EX2007 with the following configuration: 1 Server for Hub, CAS and Mailbox, one as Edge transport server. The Edge Server is connected with one NIC directly to the internet (we did not set up a firewall yet) and with the other NIC to the switch where all other servers are connected to (like DC, etc) I followed quiet precisly the instructions of the set up and we are able to send outbound mail without problem. When I try to send an email or answer one of the sent mails, I get the following error: A configuration error in the e-mail system caused the message to bounce between two servers or to be forwarded between two recipients. Contact your administrator. So we tried also with a differnet mail system and got this error: SMTP-connection with IP [xx.xx.xx.xx:25] herzustellen Thu 2007-11-01 18:58:06: * IP xx.xx.xx.xx in connection failure cache for up to 5 minutes due to previous connection failure(s) I have no idea what could cause this error, any help is very much appreciated.

    - Install Exchange on existing server Hi Just a quick question. A client wishes to have Exchange 2003 installed on their Windows 2003 server which has been up and running for 2 years now. They now wish to use Exchange as their email system. They are low on funds and need Exchange installing onto their existing server as new equipment is out of the question. They have received Exchange 2003 fully licensed as a recommendation from a sister company. Do you forsee any problems installing Exchange 2003 onto the existing server after all data has been backed up? Thanks to all, Jeff Tag: No free/busy information could be retrieved. Tag: 162787

    - Exchange server removal Hi all, Lately, just migrated from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003. We installed Win 2003 & Exch 2003 and join to existing Exchange 5.5 domain, migrated all the mailboxes & users. Now, promoted Win 03 svr & exch 2003 and demoted NT & exch 5.5, however, in Exch 2003, I can still see Exch 5.5 as member server even though I had removed and no connection to Exch5.5. Anyone has any idea howto get rid of the Exch 5.5 from Exch 2003? I followed MS KB but no luck to removed Exch 5.5. Thank you in adv. Frodo Tag: No free/busy information could be retrieved.

    - Exch 2000 to Exch 2007 - Outlook sometimes still looking at Exch20 We moved from Exchange 2000 to Exchange 2007. Sometimes users in Outlook report that Outlook sometimes says it is trying to retrieve information from the old Exchange 2000 server. In Exchange 2007 in Organization Configuration->Mailbox->Offline Address Book it still shows the old Exchange 2000 server as the Generation Server.

Microsoft states that version buckets are the number of uncommitted changes in memory that have yet to be written to log. I am curious if the number of items in memory are related to the amount of memory I have? Shouldnt a 8 GB machine allow more uncommited changes to memory than say a 1 GB machine?

The remote location has a DC there also. I installed exchange and everything went well. However, I see the folders and files that were installed, but I don't see any services listed to start exchange. The only thing I see in the exchange management tool.

    - Exchange 2003 and Pop3 Ok Guys hereâ??s the plan My company wants a Blackberry Enterprise server, howeverâ?¦.they use Sun Iplanet for company email and BES does not work with Iplanet. The idea I have is to setup an Exchange 2003 server to pull the email via pop3 from the Iplanet server, then have the BES server grab the email from exchange and pass it to the Blackberry device (our NY office has a setup like this using IBM Domino) Coming back the BES should just b able to pass the emails back via SMTP straight to the Iplanet mail server. The most important thing of all is that all emails MUST use the company email. For example if the email was for/from testy.mctest@test.com then all emails sent from the blackberry MUST show as being from/going to that address And thatâ??s where im getting stuck, I cant find enough info on that last part and thatâ??s the most important part of it. We are looking at having around 150-200 users on this system, so it seems using SBS2003 is out of the question. Can anyone provide some help with information for this?

    - Merging 3 Exchange 2003 Organisations ... Gidday, I have 3 Organisations on individual (physically) separate domains. These organisations will be merging into a single new organisation in the next 6-12 months. I need some (initial) information on how we are going to get the 3 organisations using one Exchange (2003?) database in the easiest fashion. I don't have a lot of information on the "other organisations" yet, but I am told that they are running Windows 2003 domains, and using Exchange 2003 as their Email Server ... so we want the "final organisation" to be running a Windows 2003 domain, using a single Exchange 2003 Server (instead of 3 separate ones). * We have already selected the largest domain to be the domain of the "final organisation" ... the smaller domains will be "merged" into this domain. * The users on the smaller domains will want to be able to receive email to/from their email address on the "final organisation's" domain ... and this will be their primary address ... but they will also need to receive emails from their "old address on their old domain" for a period of time. * The users on the smaller domains will need to have access to their email history when connected to the "final organisation's" domain - i.e. we will be merging the 3 Exchange databases into a single Exchange database.

    - Public Folders of Decommissioned Ex2K Hello, We have installed an Exchange 2007 server in an Exchange 2000 organization and have moved all mailboxes to Exchange 2007. My company uses email enabled Public Folders heavily(over 500) and I have set these up to replicate with the new Exchange 2007 server. All the folders have replicated and everything is fine so far. I am confused how to go about decommissioning the Exchange 2000 server while ensuring the public folders are not lost. I have read MS articles which specify to use either the ReplaceReplicaOnPFRecursive.ps1 or MoveAllReplicas.ps1 scripts (http:// technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb331970.aspx) but I also found articles which specify to add the new Exchange 2007 server to the replica lists. If I have already added the new Exchange 2007 server to the replica lists do I still need to run the scripts? I want to ensure once the Exchange 2000 server is decommissioned that the public folders don't lose any data/functionality. Thanks, Marlon Tag: No free/busy information could be retrieved.

    - A simple Exchange 2007 organization with a single server -- modification Is it possible to set up a multi-role Exchange 2007 server that is not a Domain Controller and without an edge server? The multi-role Exchange server would be the only Exchange server in the organization (after migration is complete) where the Active Directory servers would be separate boxes.

    - Drawing a Blank These Iâ??m sure is probably the most basic of basic questions but for some reason or another I am drawing a complete blankâ?¦.Iâ??ve done this before without incidentâ?¦but perhaps Iâ??m having a pre-senior moment. I have in place the following configurationâ?¦.a ccr cluster (seems to be working fine), a hub transport/client access server, and an edge server (that is sitting on the 3rd leg of my isa serverâ?¦dmz scenario)â?¦â?¦Iâ??ve setup communication between the edge server and hub transport by putting in place a rule to allow for ldap and smtp traffic (Iâ??ve confirmed that this works by telneting to the ports defined without incident . I can connect to the mail and send mail internally using outlook 2007 (which appears to be a very good thing)â?¦..now comes my challengesâ?¦.which is why I am posting these questionsâ?¦â?¦ On my edge server there are multiple options that look as though they need to be configured, my problem is that Iâ??m not certain as to whether or not they should be or whether the default install sets them up as they need to be. 1. Receive Connectors: Currently set to hostname of server. Should this be set to external name ie: mail.domainname.com? 2. Do any changes need to be made on the Network, Authentication or Permission Group tabs? 3. Send Connectors, Transport Rules, and Accepted Domains: This is currently emptyâ?¦..do I need to add anything here or does the configuration on the Hub Transport take care of this? On the Hub Transport Server I have what appears to be several receive connectors (Client and Default) what do I do with these? 1. Do I change the fqdn to the external name (like I outlined above) 2. The Network Tab shows port 587â?¦..where is this used and do I need to change it? 3. Authentication and Permission Groups are set up as defaultâ?¦..ie: TLS, Basic, Integratedâ?¦my guess is that I donâ??t need to change anything hereâ?¦Permissions Groups only has â??Exchange Usersâ?? 4. On another note can I completely remove these and setup a custom connectorâ?¦.if so what fields need to be populated? On a final noteâ?¦.my isp blocks port 25 so Iâ??m using dyndnsâ??s mailhop servicesâ?¦. 1. The instructions they give apply to exchange 2003, how can I incorporate these into 2007 http://www.dyndns.com/support/kb/mail_servers_and_mailhop_outbound.html#exchange2003 Iâ??m going to be using port 10025 for inbound, 2525 for outbound. 2. In using ISA 2006 to which server do I point my mail server rule to? The edge server (like I would if I were using 2003) â?¦or to my hub transport?

    - No mail flow I'm in the midst of changing ISPs. I run my own mail server at home (Exchange 2003) and yesterday I attempted to move to the new ISP. After reconfiguring for the new ISP I was receiving mail but I was unable to send. After two hours of attempting to fix I decided to go back to the original setup (original ISP) temporarily until I could troubleshoot more. Now I have no mail flow in either direction. I can telnet to my mail server on port 25 from the Internet and locally. I can access OWA from the Internet. From my mail client (OE) I can send mail to myself but it never comes back to me when I receive. If I send mail from GMAIL or Hotmail to my Exchange Server I get no non-delivery reports but the emails never show up in my inbox. I am stumped and would appreciate some help. I run a single Windows 2003 server with Exchange 2003 on it. One of the things I attempted to do yesterday, when changing to new ISP, is remove the SMTP connector I had been using to relay mail through old ISP and send mail through local SMTP on the same server. This seems to be when all the problems started. I have since recreated the connector but still no love. The only error I see in the event log is event ID 290, Source MSEchangeMTA, Category X.400 Service. Tag: No free/busy information could be retrieved. Tag: 162621

Hi,

I am busy migrating from 2K3 to 2K7 and I have set up the 'Schedule+
Free/Busy' system folders to replicate to the 2K7 servers but something is
still amiss. From OWA I can access Free/Busy Information when scheduling
meetings but not from Outlook MAPI. What do I miss?

I am trying to move replication info from an old 2K3 server to 2K7 but I am
getting an error in the 2K3 ESM. How do I do this from 2K7?

Regards
