How to change the format when forwarding an e-mail ?

2002-04-25 Thread Freya Jongkind

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

2002-04-25 Thread Olds, Dominic

 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.

RE: Reverse DNS on mail servers

2002-04-25 Thread Adam Romain

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!!!

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

2002-04-25 Thread Neil Hobson

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.

AHA..so if the NETBIOS name on our internal network does not match
the FQDN in DNS would I get a similar fault?? i.e. would the MTA be
sending as if from the netbios name with the DNS suffix attached
(ow-mail.owenwilliams.co.uk) 
The NETBIOS name is OW-MAIL and the FQDN in our DNS entry is
MAIL.OWENWILLIAMS.CO.UK ... or am I barking up the wrong tree, or just
barking for that matter? Cheers

 On the other hand, some of my servers with PCAnywhere 8 are

  Because ASP gets senile quickly. If we don't reboot the OWA

 The fact that some people can smoke 3 packs of Marlboros a 
 day and still live to be 90 years old doesn't mean that 
 cigarettes aren't dangerous. Likewise, the fact that you (and 
 others) can run problem-free computer systems without 
 rebooting doesn't mean there aren't bugs in the software. It 
 simply means that people have different computer 
 environments. Different users, different software, different 
 networks, hell, maybe different gamma rays - who knows?
 
 The simple fact is that NT and Exchange (and other auxiliary 
 software like backup agents and remote-control) are not 
 bug-free, nor will they ever be. Some bugs, when tickled, 
 create subtle corruption (overwriting a random memory 
 location, locking a resource, whatever). Eventually, some 
 vital organ is hit and the system gets sick...

  Subject: scheduling automatic rebooting of server
  
  
  Does anyone know how to schedule the automatic rebooting of
  Windows 2000 Servers. I have looked on the their website and 
  have found next to nothing about how to do this. What I am 
  trying to do is on our Mail server I want to have the machine 
  reboot say every Sunday night at a certain time. If anyone 
  knows how to do this in Windows 2000 I would greatly 
  appreciate the information.

I really don't understand you guys... WTF is going on?

I now guess that when Daniel was talking about run change control he
meant to record everything I install on the servers or something.

I appologise to you elite gurus for my ignorance, and not speaking
English very fluently, but I'm new to exchange and all I wanted to know
is if there is some tool like hfnetchk to automatically tell me the SP
and hotfixes that are installed on Exchange servers.

BTW, I'm just taking over a lot of exchange servers that weren't
installed by me, and have no record of what was installed on them!

Thanks for nothing!

William, thanks for your reply but what I am looking for is a list of
post Exchange SP2 patches that may need applying regardless of whether
we are seeing any errors. For example security patches that plug holes
that we may have and don't know about etc.

OWA Problem

2002-04-25 Thread Filipe Joel de Almeida

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: OWA Problem

2002-04-25 Thread Alverson, Thomas M.

If you get the entire OWA screen including the icon bar on the left and the
menus at the top but do NOT get the list of email messages, then the problem
could be a proxy server.  The OWA client uses some html functions that are
not supported by some proxy servers.  

There is a nice OWA troubleshooting procedure for exchange 2000 at:

Subject: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?

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.

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server

2002-04-25 Thread Ben Winzenz

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.

 I agree about PCAnywhere. Things definitely improved when we 
 upgraded from 8 to 9. I'd like to pull it off my servers 
 altogether, but considering that my servers are all over the 
 world, I can't really do that.
 
 On the other hand, some of my servers with PCAnywhere 8 are 
 rock-solid, so I can't say for sure it's a problem.
 
 I tried to talk my boss into letting me switch to VNC, but 
 freeware still scares management around here (But who will

  Because ASP gets senile quickly. 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.
  
  For the people on the list who insist that periodic reboots
  aren't needed: please save yourselves the effort of telling 
  me how reboots aren't required if you have quality hardware 
  and good admin practices. The boxes are HP netservers, lotsa 
  RAM and CPU, and are running on EMC disk arrays. Likewise, 
  our administration is VERY conservative. We do nothing to the 
  servers unless we fully understand and test first on separate 
  test systems. The only software on these boxes other than NT 
  and Exchange is PCAnywhere and Legato networker client.
  
  I like Exchange. I like Exchange a lot. But it is not
  bug-free. I've found that periodic reboots tend to keep 
  obscure bugs obscure.

  If you are into Perl, I've got a script that I use to reboot
  our MSX55 servers (monthly for mailbox servers, twice monthly 
  for IMS, weekly for OWA). It could undoubtedly be tweaked for 
  what you want.
  
  It shuts down the MSX services before the reboot (and
  verifies that they do indeed stop). After the reboot is 
  complete, it verifies that any service running at the time of 
  reboot is running after the reboot.
  
  Sends email showing the results.

   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.
   
   For the people on the list who insist that periodic reboots
   aren't needed: please save yourselves the effort of telling 
   me how reboots aren't required if you have quality hardware 
   and good admin practices. The boxes are HP netservers, lotsa 
   RAM and CPU, and are running on EMC disk arrays. Likewise, 
   our administration is VERY conservative. We do nothing to the 
   servers unless we fully understand and test first on separate 
   test systems. The only software on these boxes other than NT 
   and Exchange is PCAnywhere and Legato networker client.
   
   I like Exchange. I like Exchange a lot. But it is not
   bug-free. I've found that periodic reboots tend to keep 
   obscure bugs obscure.

I really don't understand you guys... WTF is going on?

I now guess that when Daniel was talking about run change control he
meant to record everything I install on the servers or something.

I appologise to you elite gurus for my ignorance, and not speaking
English very fluently, but I'm new to exchange and all I wanted to know
is if there is some tool like hfnetchk to automatically tell me the SP
and hotfixes that are installed on Exchange servers.

BTW, I'm just taking over a lot of exchange servers that weren't
installed by me, and have no record of what was installed on them!

Thanks for nothing!

Dead Objects in Reply-To Messages hang SMTP Queue

2002-04-25 Thread Myles, Damian

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

Lazy Ras Dial Up

in my organization to support the one remaining RAS dialup connection from a small 
external office. I believe I have set everything up correctly and certainly initiating 
a manaul dial seems to work, but the Exchange server never initiates the connection. I 
have the dir rep schedule set to always.

Owa accesing two different MSX5.5

Hi all

MSX5.5 +SP4
different Exchange sites/same exchange organization
three different NT4 domains

We have installed *just* the OWA portion of MSX5.5 in a server we need to
know what is needed to access, using the same owa page, mailboxes in a
MSX5.5 different than the one typed during the OWA portion installation, we
need to access mailboxes in both servers.

Just OWA = server A, ntdomain A
MSX1 = server B , nt domain B, msxsite= site, msxorg=org
MSX2, serverB, Nt domainB, msxsite=site, msxorg =org

Goal users accesing OWA page in server A to be able to open mailboxes in
server B and in ServerA (depending where their mailboxes are)

RE: Tools

2002-04-25 Thread Dupler, Craig

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 . . .

Sorry, I know that is too ridiculous, but hey life is good and the Mariners
are 17 and 5.

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.

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? If you use more than 1GB of
RAM, you should put /3GB switch in the BOOT.INI or the server cannot take
advantage of the memory above 1GB and starts fragmenting the existing
memory.

Rebooting servers periodically is not a solution; it is just burying your

acceptable/expected quality of service in your environment, then I guess
it's ok.

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server

2002-04-25 Thread Andrey Fyodorov

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...

Rebooting servers periodically is not a solution; it is just burying your
head in the sand and pretending everything is fine.  If that is
acceptable/expected quality of service in your environment, then I guess
it's ok.

Conference Server and ILS

2002-04-25 Thread Exchange - Swynk

I have e2k with conferencing server.  I would like to setup an inhouse
directory server for netmeeting to use for conferences.

Does anyone know how I would go about this?  I thought the conference
server itself handled it, but so far I can't get it to be recognized.

upgrade exchange in a child domain

2002-04-25 Thread Imran Siddiqui

We have exchange 5.5 SP3 running in W2K Child domain. Our DC's are not GC
servers and Schema MAster and Naming Master are located at different
location.

I am planning an in-place uograde to exchange 2000. Do I need to run the
ForestPrep for my child domain. It looks to me that I should only need to
run the domainprep sicne I will only upgrade exchange 5.5 running in the
child domain. We have just one server and single site/organization.

Thanks for help

CDOEXM and multi-domain.

2002-04-25 Thread Quentin

Hi all,

I'm using CDOEXM to create and manage mailboxes programmatically.
I have troubles creating mailboxes on a Server that is not in the same NT
domain as the machine I'm using.
Is there a way to do it I'm not aware of or is this a known limitation
(which would be pretty annoying)

Quentin,

I know this isn't answering your question, but I've recently been
looking for good docs on CDOEX/M.  Do you have any good sources (other
than the the standard MSDN variety)?  I've found great CDO resources,
but no so much CDOEX/M.  Thanks in advance,

RE: CDOEXM and multi-domain.

CDO 1.x, CDOEX, CDOEXM and CDOWF all run in the security context of the
currently logged on user while ADSI and LDAP allows providing different
user credentials.

Your best bet is to write code which changes the security context. I
remember that the Win32 API offers such things and
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q248187 might
offer some insight.

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server

2002-04-25 Thread Julian Stone

Awaiting Directory Lookup this would indicate that you have dsaccess
problems, which would also start to explain the OWA logon issues. 

So, IMHO, I think you should look at the communication between your
exchange servers and your DC\GC servers.

Subject: RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server


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...

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.

Awaiting Directory Lookup this would indicate that you have dsaccess

So, IMHO, I think you should look at the communication between your
exchange servers and your DC\GC servers.

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...

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server

2002-04-25 Thread Andrey Fyodorov

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.

But Exchange 2000 does not seem to be as stable. Maybe by the time they

RE: scheduling automatic rebooting of server

2002-04-25 Thread Soysal, Serdar

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.

It always prompts me to reboot, and does even give me the option to
reboot later.

Rebooting servers periodically is not a solution; it is just burying
your head in the sand and pretending everything is fine.  If that is
acceptable/expected quality of service in your environment, then I guess
it's ok.

Re: Need advice about an exchange HD setup

2002-04-25 Thread Richard Leslie

It doesnt matter how many you have in the set: if you lose more than one at
a time, you lose them all.
The answer: always have an extra drive.  As soon as you lose one, swap it
out.

 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.

 there's also a bit in the FAQ about optimum HD config for exch55. I think
it
 mentions a mirrored pair also just for the log's.

Stupid Question...Removing the first server

2002-04-25 Thread Blunt, James H (Jim)

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?

TIA,

Jim Blunt

Help, Strange error in Forestprep

2002-04-25 Thread Leo

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

It's first verifying the human at the console has rights and is using your

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.
