If there are only particular bad addresses, you could also use NK2 Edit to 
backup and then migrate addresses to the new AutoStream file that will get 
created. Even though it's called "NK2 Edit" it will work on AutoStream____.dat 
files. http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/outlook_nk2_edit.html

Just a thought if the user is heavily dependent on the cached addresses, which 
in my experience is (unfortunately) normal.

Thanks,
Geoff

You could, potentially, try to dump her nickname cache first.

So, I moved her mailbox this am-no improvement.  Then, I ran through the four 
documented new-mailboxrepairrequest options and two undocumented ones 
(FolderACL, MissingSpecialFolders)-no improvements there either.  Not sure if 
any of the other undocumented options could help, but as it's not obvious what 
they do, I'm not going down that path alone.

I started looking at some of the e-mail addresses and found if I type them in 
cleanly, I can access the option to Save as Outlook Contact.  Even though they 
look okay, this points back to likely corruption in the nickname cache.

It won't go over well, but I think the only option left is to have her save out 
what she needs and then to purge the autocomplete cache.  The saving part is 
difficult when you can't just save to contacts.  This actually came up because 
she couldn't do that and had found if she clicks to open the "contact" using 
the pop-up menus over the address, she was able to add information and choose 
save.  But, when she went to use those newly saved contacts by adding them to a 
local contact group, those contacts wouldn't appear.  The reason is because it 
saved the data back to the suggested contact and not to her main contacts 
folder-already had to copy those over for her to get them in the correct 
location.

Thanks for all the ideas-at least I learned some more useful troubleshooting 
options.

FYI, EXFolders wants .net 3.5 installed, which I don't plan on adding that to 
my Exchange servers just to run this tool.  Will try the next option when I can 
have her mailbox offline.

Thanks for all of the responses-I will check EXFolders first, then if I need to 
try the move mailbox and mailboxrepairrequest options when I can have her 
offline.

This does appear to be the only thing broken (yes, she can create contacts 
manually), new profile or other computer doesn't help, and I am starting to 
suspect the addresses themselves in her suggested contacts, which is where most 
of these are coming from (autocomplete).

Don't know for sure but I would bet it still does take it offline.

Haven't used that one before either.  Does it still interrupt the mailbox use 
if you only run with the -DetectOnly switch?  I might have to wait to run it 
until off hours.

For grins, what about a MailboxRepairRequest.

So, I found the PS command to fix the permissions, but still have the error 
happening on her mailbox.  I actually went through and fixed numerous folders 
that were wrong-probably from way back in the day (Contacts, Inbox, Calendar, 
Journal, Notes, & Tasks all missing anonymous and had an unknown SID that had 
been delegated at one time).  Any other ideas?

Command used:

Add-mailboxfolderpermission -identity Username:\Contacts -AccessRights None 
-User Anonymous

Subject: Reset Default permissions

Outlook 2010 SP2 online mode, Exchange 2013 cu6 two servers in a DAG with 
Barracuda LBs.

I have a user who can't save any contact when right-clicking an external 
address and choosing to "Save as Outlook Contact"-don't know how long it's been 
broken, but I'm guessing this isn't new.  Here is the error message generated:
[cid:image001.png@01CFF994.00120250]

I've narrowed it to her mailbox (same error on another computer with my admin 
account connected, other users don't have the issue) and I'm not finding much 
love on this searching google (a lot of dead-end threads).  She doesn't have a 
pst nor oab, and wasn't migrated from Google.  Some of these addresses are 
actually already saved as contacts, so it should just link and open them up.  
Internal addresses seem to open up the tool.

So I started looking at permissions, and I think it may be because her Contacts 
subfolder is missing the anonymous user, which shows up on other 
mailboxes/folders, albeit with "None" on viewable permission levels.  Top-level 
mailbox permissions look normal.

So, is there a tool or utility I can use to either reset permissions on her 
Contact subfolder to default, or to add the anonymous user account back?  The 
Outlook GUI only allows me to browse existing users-can't type in Anonymous.  
Still searching around for a tool or ps command, but would appreciate if 
someone knows what I should be looking for.

I didn't try the /resetfolders switch, but I think that will just recreate if 
the default folders are missing.

Thanks,
Bonnie
