We just ran into this- random users (30-40 out of 6700 mailboxes) spread across 9 DB’s on 4 different HT/MBX servers in two sites. (E2010 SP2) Only affected cached mode people, OL 2003, 2007 and 2010. Tried the new ost thing and it didn’t seem to make any difference, also tried a whole new profile. Couldn’t find any indication of problems in Event logs, Dell OpenManage, EMC Performance monitor, troubleshooter, Mail flow troubleshooter... Client connection status was fine too.
Swapping active copies seems to fixed whatever it was but ii’s only been an hour or so. Really strange.

If I recall that was a clunky workaround.

(My brother’s name is also Steve ☺) Been wanting to acknowledge you and your blog / postings for a while as I have used many of them.. ☺ Not all users had OST’s. What do you mean by switching databases? Just moving the mailbox to a different database or do you mean something more than that? Thanks!

These were pre-SP2, though so if it’s the same issue wonder if it’s been around in one form or another for a while Steve From: Richard Stovall [mailto:rich...@gmail.com]<mailto:[mailto:rich...@gmail.com]> Sent: 29 February 2012 04:08 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Outlook Delays since Exchange 2010 SP2 applied Thank you. I'm on SP2 with no Release Updates. Perhaps I'll schedule time this weekend to get to RU1.

In our case the perceived ‘batch’ deliveries occurred after the client had been idle for a while and then performed an action in Outlook (switch folders, send a message, etc.). The problem only effected MAPI (Outlook online and Outlook Anywhere clients) users. EAS, POP/IMAP, and OWA users continued to function normally. Rebooting the CAS server temporarily fixed the problem. We installed RU1 for Exchange 2010 SP2 about two weeks ago and haven’t had a reoccurrence since. I’m not sure if RU1 really did anything (I didn’t see anything for our issue in the list of fixes), but it might be worth a shot.

The report was from a user with multiple mailboxes configured in Outlook 2010. She stated that she never saw a particular inbound message (cached mode) in Outlook, but did see it in OWA. The mailbox in question is accessed by 6 users, all on Outlook 2010 except one who is on a Mac with Mac Outlook 2011. The user in question was on a Mac until a few days ago, and had become accustomed to the vagaries of Mac Outlook 2011. That's why she checked OWA out of habit.

Email shows up in OWA or on mobile phones prior to Outlook. I ran Remote Connectivity Analyzer and any errors are certificate based and explainable, and I even pointed Exchange towards a different DC to see if that makes a difference and it does not seem to.

In their, words, “I just had another random delay, this time on my own mailbox. Everything appeared fine, but then all of a sudden several emails all appeared at the same time that were actually delivered 10-15 minutes ago.” I did 2 things recently, put SP2 on Feb. 3rd and added an authoritative domain on Feb. 11th. My understanding is that the settings in Send/Receive do NOT impact Exchange users, only POP and IMAP. Any suggestions on where to start looking?
