Exchange Server Full Recovery
Title: Message Exchange 5.5 SP4 Windows 2000 Server SP2 I have one question in regards to a fullrestore of exchange server and hope someone will be able to help. I have Exchange set-up with log files on a separate physical hard drive. If I have to reinstall exchangeon this Serverin case of Disaster recovery,I have to run the Microsoft Exchange Performance Optimizer to optimize Exchange for the same configuration that was used before. If I were to do this will it over write the log files? Which I wouldn't obviously want tohappen if I wanted a complete restore. I hope this makes sense!

Mail Sending order problems
Hi, Can somebody help with a problem that seems to have developed since lat week with Exchange Server. I will give some background details first: 1. Exchange Server 5.5 SP4 2. 20 users, using exchange for calendar, tasks etc functionality, with internet email accounts (pop3) for sending and receiving email. 3. Delivery options in Outlook 2000 Tools|Services|Delivery set to Internet E-mail at the top. 4. Exchange accounts set up with naming convention e.g Joe B (Exchange). The server was set-up approximately 8 months ago and everything has been working fine until last Tuesday, when it started to deliver mail for all users using Exchange instead of the credentials supplied in Internet E-mail. Recipients of mail are now seeing Joe B (Exchange) instead of Joe Bloggs [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] in the senders address. Hence when they hit reply they are actually sending to a non-existent domain. when one checks a mail in the Sent Items folder, the from address now says: Joe Bloggs [[EMAIL PROTECTED]]; on behalf of Joe B (Exchange) when it was working it used to just say: Joe Bloggs [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] At first I thought it was something to do with Outlook, but now realise it must be at the Server level as this is happening for all users, although the delivery order has not been changed at all. I have checked everything obvious and all seems fine - I'm the only person that administers the Exchange Server and hence know that nobody else has done anything new recently. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks Shamim List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm
Additional Mailboxes
I set up a support mailbox and gave permissions to several users, but I have two problems: 1. When any of these users send out mail from support (tests currently), the messages seem to have the on behalf of in the from field. Don't know how to get rid of this, I set all the specific users up with Send As permission in the permissions tab. 2. I removed one of the users from the permissions tab, but that user can still access the support mailbox. Any help will be appreciated.

RE: Email Template
what permissions did you use? i don't seem to be able to open a second mailbox. Thanks -Original Message- From: MLewis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 16 August 2001 15:45 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Email Template You're running the same setup I have running here. We don't have a helpdesk per se, so we created a Helpdesk mailbox that users submit their requests to either by email or task request. With that, everyone in IT needs access to this mailbox, so in Exchange, go to the mailbox permissions tab for the helpdesk account you want those users to share, give those users permission to that mail account. If the permissions tab isn't viewable in Exchange, go into Tools, Options, Permissions and check the box next to 'show permission page for all objects' -- this is assuming you're running Exchange 5.0 and up. After permissions have been set, tell the users to go to their Outlook program, choose Tools, Go into the properties for their MS Exchange Server Account, go to the Advanced tab, and under 'Open these additional mailboxes' add the shared user account, and it will open an additional set of mailbox folders for this shared account, which is separate from their main Exchange account.

How can I get it to prompt me everytime? Thanks, Mike You can do this in Outlook by creating the message, and then choosing File, Save As, and change the message type to .oft. The .oft is the outlook template. You can either save this .oft file to the network so it's shareable, or what we do here is insert the template into a recurring task so whenever we get the pop-up task reminder, the .oft template is included so we just click on it, send it off, complete the task and keep going.
