How to change the format when forwarding an e-mail ?
Hello, We want to change the format of an incoming e-mail. This e-mail comes as HTML and we want it in plain text format or rich text format. Normally this is possible just by opening a forward e-mail , we have a case here that won't work is this way. It just keeps the format of the incoming e-mail. In Outlook 2000, the format for outgoing mail is already set to rich text format. In the Exchange Administration program, under the advanced options of the Internet mail service, Send Microsoft Exchange Rich Text Formatting option is set to USER. We have MS Exchange 5.5 , WIN2000 and MS Outlook 2000 running. Thanks for any suggestions you might have. Freya Jongkind.

Reverse DNS on mail servers
Hi all Hopefully just a quick one here...I have an issue with one of our cutomers who will not accept email from us because our mail server (apparently) is not reachable via a reverse DNS lookup. How and where do I configure this? I thought it was done by the ISP hosting our domain name on their DNS serversor do I need to specifically configure it on the mail server itself? Many thanks Dom. _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Reverse DNS on mail servers
Your send MTA may be routing mail from another IP address which doesn't match you MX records, so I believe. That is, your mx records for ownewilliams.co.uk is 193.133.143.82 with the highest preference. If you send mail via another IP address not in the MX records, then they will reject your mail. I think I'm right, so I'll wait for a second opinion!!! -Original Message- From: Olds, Dominic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 25 April 2002 10:42 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Reverse DNS on mail servers Hi all Hopefully just a quick one here...I have an issue with one of our cutomers who will not accept email from us because our mail server (apparently) is not reachable via a reverse DNS lookup.

RE: Reverse DNS on mail servers
Your ISP should do this for you. My understanding is that when your SMTP host (which is set to mail.owenwilliams.co.uk) communicates with the outside world, some hosts will try a reverse DNS lookup to prove that you are who you say you are. Your ISP needs to set your reverse DNS up so that anyone querying your IP address of 193.133.143.82 gets an answer of mail.owenwilliams.co.uk (I think).

RE: Reverse DNS on mail servers
Since your Received headers show: Received: by ow-mail.owenwilliams.co.uk with Internet Mail Service (5.5.2655.55) I'm guessing that you've got Exchange 5.5 running on a Windows 2000 server, and if you look under My Computer / Properties / Network Identification tab / Properties button, you'll see that your server name is ow-mail. Thus, your FQDN becomes ow-mail.owenwilliams, which is different from your MX records.

OWA Problem
Ok, let me see if I can phrase this out correctly: I'm taking over some Exchange 2K Servers. I have already applied SP2 and the latest patches in the ones that didn't have it yet, and now I'm checking to see if they are all stable. One of them returns me errors when I'm accessing through OWA. I can login, I see my folders, but when I click on inbox, for instance, I can't see the mails. It just says Loading... and I get a message on the bottom of IE, saying there were errors loading that page. Anyone has any thought on what may be causing this?

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server
No. All you need is Netmeeting installed on the Servers. Then, once Netmeeting is installed, you can configure it to enable Remote Desktop Sharing. Once that is installed, you can connect to it from your box via Netmeeting. Try a search on Technet for Netmeeting Remote Desktop Sharing. You'll probably find a bunch of info.

If we don't reboot the OWA server weekly, we start seeing ASP errors on the OWA server. Likewise, we can count on the IMS servers to start flaking out after a month or two if we don't reboot them. Twice monthly is probably overkill, but since the reboots are free (ie: users never notice), we go for twice monthly. Mailbox servers tend to be a bit more stable, but prior to the reboots, we would occasionally start seeing errors, and when we tried to manually reboot, the exchange services would never go down cleanly. In honesty, we started these reboots in the NT SP5 MSX SP2 days. We've not tried reducing them since we went to 6a SP3.

Dead Objects in Reply-To Messages hang SMTP Queue
Fellow forumers, Has anyone else seen this particular problem under Ex2K SP2 ? I have a number of users who have Delivery Options enabled on their mailbox to forward mails to additional Internet e-mail accounts. Whilst this process is being slowly mothballed out in favour of OWA, I've experienced some issues with forwarding. These remote mail accounts are setup as Windows Contacts in AD and a couple of these objects in the past have been removed by mistake and then had to be recreated. However, and this is where it becomes a little strange, mails which are replied to referencing the details of the deleted object cannot be delivered (unsurprisingly) BUT stick in the SMTP queue flagged as Retry, causing all other mails meanwhile to queue up behind them in the SMTP queue. Only by freezing the undeliverable messages are those behind processed. Looking in the details of the message, I can see the reference to the dead object, e.g. Envelope Recipients: EX:/O=MY COMPANY/OU=MYADMIN GROUP/CN=RECIPIENTS/CN=User,Dead Aside from getting users to not to reply to mails which reference the dead object, is there any way I can prevent the queue from sticking ... I could reduce the number of retry attempts before dropping the mail on the SMTP VS but that seems like a poor option, particular where genuine connectivity problems occasionally do crop up =) Regards, Mylo _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: Tools
As I understand it, tools do exist to work with Jet family databases outside of the context of the products in which they are embedded. This approach is not recommended, and for that reason, those tools are reserved for use by the developers. So, you need to at the very least interact with the Exchange Server's API if you do not find the things within the admin tools provided to be sufficient. That will preserve the integrity of the stores. Now just to make a certain E.C. cringe, you could do a bricked backup, then export the store from the backup tool to a neutral file format, and then import the store to a beta copy of the new version of Outlook with its humongous PST capabilities . . .

Sounds like what I am dealing with. Although I have not seen Fragmented Memory warnings for a long time now. Ever since I put the /3GB switch in the BOOT.INI How much physical RAM does your server have?

As far as I can see, nothing is wrong. The server ran fine for months without any restarts or reboots before SP2. We went with SP2 because of better OWA features and better SMTP queue management. Before SP2 we used to get messages stuck in the Awaiting Directory Lookup queue and there was no way to get rid of them. Those pesky messages eventually ate all the memory. We had to stop the SMTP virtual server and create a new SMTP virtual server. After SP2, we can simply remove those messages from this queue. But a few days after installing SP2, we ran into the OWA problem: When OWA gives up, there are no warnings or errors in the event log, CPU or memory utilization do not change. Everything looks the same, but OWA does not like people's passwords anymore. Although this could have something to do with Kerberos tickets expiring (or not expiring) on time... -Original Message- From: Julian Stone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 2:14 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server What else is wrong with your systems to warrant this ??

RE: Need advice about an exchange HD setup
The only problem I see with using three drives is boy does it suck when one goes down and your trying to get another one hoping one of the other two do not go down. Trust me it sucks. I had one go down and before I could get another one one of the other two went down. Now I will never have just three. -Original Message- From: Robert Williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 4:02 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Need advice about an exchange HD setup I forgot to mention that I have about 250 mailboxes and my store is about 10 gigs...so I don't see a issue with using 3 18 gigs raid5 for the store Thank You, Robert Williams Senior Network Administrator Raypak, Inc.

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server
Wanted to clarify my earlier statements: the Exchange server that we end up resetting every night is the back-end Exchange server with about 1,500 mailboxes. The front-end Exchange 2000 servers with SP2 normally run for months on end without problems. They deal with SSL and non-SSL OWA, POP3, IMAP, SMTP, Virus scanning (Sybari Antigen). All they need is a good amount of RAM and they have 1GB of it each. The back-end deals with OWA, POP3, IMAP, SMTP connections from the front-ends, + direct Outlook MAPI connections. It also runs Sybari Antigen. The back-end has 4GB of RAM and 2 Xeon CPUs. -Original Message- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 2:45 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server Frankly, Exchange 5.5 SP4 that we have has been running without restarting for MANY months now.

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server
In this organization every network problem is first reported as an Exchange Issue. It's probably due to the fact that Outlook is the only network application that EVERY client uses and it is usually the very first network application that they open. That's probably the reason why the network problems are reported as exchange issues. Well, that and an untrainable mass of helpdeskians.

Stupid Question...Removing the first server
This particular server is Exchange 5.5 Sp1, NT 4.0 SP5. The rest of the site is Ex5.5, SP4 / Win2k, SP2. I have one server in my site that isn't doing anything. It is one that was installed before I took over the admin duties. It's a converted PC, so we're going to remove it from the site and shut it down. I have followed Q152959 for removing the first server in the site. I have also reviewed all the gotcha's! listed in Q189286. 1) The bridgehead server duties have been migrated over to another server. 2) The public folders have all been rehomed to another server. 3) There are no mailboxes on this server. 4) The distribution lists are all set to expand on a different server. 5) There are no replicas of the Free/Busy information on this server 6) There is no replica of the OAB on the server 7) There are no organizational forms on the server 8) Routing calculation has been moved to another server 9) There are no connectors of any kind on this server 10)When I look at the Instances tab of the Public store on this server, the only public folder left on this server is called Eventconfig_servername. Yet, when I go to the Age Limits tab, there is another folder listed there called Nntp Control Folder, which I can't find anywhere else. The exchange databases that exist on this server are as follows: \\servername\c$\exchsrvr\dsadata\dir.edb - 105 mb \\servername\c$\exchsrvr\dsadata\temp.edb - 1 mb \\servername\c$\exchsrvr\mdbdata\tmp.edb - 7 mb \\servername\e$\exchsrvr\mdbdata\pub.edb - 162 mb \\servername\e$\exchsrvr\mdbdata\priv.edb - 13 mb None of them have been modified since 02/26/02 Even with nothing on this server, I am still getting 5 to 10 people per day logging on to the Public Store. Is this normal? What are these people logging on to? A replica of the public folders? Should I?: 1) Stop all the Exchange services and leave it for a week 2) Restart the services 3) Remove the server from the site 4) Leave the server up for a day or two 5) Turn it off. I stopped all the services on this server for the weekend, about a month and a half ago, thinking that nobody would holler. When I did that, I had whole bunches of people complaining about how slow their Outlook clients were. As soon as I started everything back up, things were fine. What am I missing?

Help, Strange error in Forestprep
If you have a Win2k domain can you forest prep join an Exchange 5.5 Organisation in another domain running Nt4? The reason I ask is that I am getting an error when I try this. The error happens immediately after entering the Exchange 5.5 server name (before I am asked for an account with admin access to Exchange 5.5). The error states: Setup encountered an error while attempting to bind to the exchange server Server10: 0XC103FC93 (6459): Could not bind to the Microsoft Exchange Directory server Server10. You do not have the permissions required to complete the operation If it has not asked me for an account to connect to the Exchange 5 org at this point why is it stating a permissions error? We can ping server10 by name and we have the NT4 domain trusting the root domain and child domain. I am running forest prep from the root under the domain admins account. Any help would be very much appreciated Leo _ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

It's first verifying the human at the console has rights and is using your current username ID.

Re: Help, Strange error in Forestprep
Thanks for your input Daniel. The problem I had was that I initially did not believe the error message as I had not got to the stage of providing the account credentials. Once I decided to believe the error message and added the Win2k account to the exchange administrators group on the NT4 domain it connected ok. Its been a long day! Many Thanks for your help.
