EX55: Blocking OUTBOUND email by domain??
I need to block inbound and outbound email to a particular domain on exchange 5.5. I searched the net and only found an Exchange 2000 way to do this. For inbound I simply added that domain to the TURF settings and that works fine. For outbound the only kludge I could come up with is to set up a CONNECTION/Specify by email domain and set that domain to route through 0.0.0.0. This host is unreachable which means that the messages sit in the outbound queue and retry until they expire (as well as generating a bunch of alerts to the sender). Is there a better way to do this?

They would all save your users money and some of them are free. If you want to you could join up as an associate and make money as well.

My question to you is whether if I were to send out a mail to my colleagues would you consider this Spam. I do believe that this is a good offering from a reputable company which would save my users money but it could fall under the category of unsolicited email. However so is a global email to my users warning them of Spam from Nigeria for example or warning them that somebody has left their car headlights on in the works carpark !!

It was originally pointed to me by the below Mr. Webb's lovely wife... :) Oh, the text below says HKLM. Put it in HKCU as well, same tree path. QUOTE: Just a tip I learned that I thought I would pass along to the rest of you on how to make the Blackberry work better if you use a spam filter or Outlook rules. I get about 200-250 spam emails per day so I use a spam filter (I Hate Spam, which does work well and I have no association with that company) and also use Outlook rules to move certain emails to various folders so, while my Outlook Inbox was relatively clean, my Blackberry was getting very hard to use due to the shear number of messages on it. I personally found the filters in the Desktop Manager were useless for me but the following registry hack allows both my spam filter and Outlook rules to do their job before the Blackberry server ever process anything, thereby resulting in a very manageable handheld. I am using the Exchange Enterprise v2.1 server but I was told this reg hack should work for all versions. I'm not sure how you'd do it on a desktop redirector but there's probably a way. Go to regedit and go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Research in Motion\BlackBerry\Server add a DWORD value called ProcessMailDelay (without the quotes) The decimal value you set here will be the delay, in seconds, that the server waits before looking at a user's Inbox to begin routing to the handheld Stop/Restart the Blackberry Server service Hope this helps someone out there. :ENDQUOTE Gary -- Gary K.

Race between client rules and BES server
Due to new corporate policy, I just moved all my mail from the server (Exchange 5.5sp4) to local PST files. I had several rules to move mailing lists emails to server folders that now point to local PST folders. Before, these mailing list messages never showed up in the inbox, and the Blackberry server (BES server) never saw them (and thus never sent them to my blackberry). Now when one of these emails arrives, it briefly appears in the inbox before my PC has a chance to grab it and move it to a local PST. This means that some of the time the BES server sees it and forwards it to my blackberry. Does anyone know of any tricks to avoid this? I may have to switch these back to the server as I can keep stuff there less than 60 days old but this means that I would need to have to manually archive these before the server deletes them.

RE: Outlook 2k3 on XP won't connect to My Exchange 5.5
If you use caching mode with outlook 2003 and exchange 5.5, then your cache is limited to 2gig (it cannot use the new enhanced unicode PST format. This means that if you have anywhere close to 2gig in your server mailbox it will not work (it will fill up the 2gig of an old style PST then give you an error). The only workaround is to stop using cache mode or trim your server storage to much less than 2g (like 1.5gig or less as the PST format is much less efficient than PSTs) Tom -Original Message- From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2003 5:47 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Outlook 2k3 on XP won't connect to My Exchange 5.5 No. You can use cache mode with any flavor of Exchange.

RE: Outlook 2002/XP Conecting to Exchange 5.5
Be advised that you cannot use the new biggie sized PST files (unicode) for cache mode one Exchange 5.5 (It won't let you). The result of this is that it will create a 2g limited pst file, and if your mailbox is over about 1.5g (pst's take more space to save the messages) it will die and you will have to disable cache mode until you get your mailbox on the server well below 2g.

I guess my questions are: For users using POP or custom applications that are using the Exchange IMC as their relay host, how will changing the ports affect them? Have I just disabled POP by installing XWall? We have locked down all unused ports so I guess I need to open port 24 up to the front end and back end servers as well.

RE: Hot off the Fixes....
MS03-046 is listed as critical and involves somebody sending bogus data to your smtp port. In our case, the smtp port of our exchange server is not directly connected to the internet - our external SMTP interface is a sendmail firewall that forwards the email to an antivirus gateway and then to the exchange machine. In this scenario, the bogus smtp data is much less likely to ever reach the exchange server. If your exchange SMTP port is directly on the internet then I would be in a hurry to load that patch.

RE: Mailbox moves completed, but....
I had this same problem moving from an NT4/EX55 server to a new WIN2k/EX55 server using move mailbox. After backing up the affected mailboxes with EXMERGE, I tried moving one back to the old server. If I remember correctly, the move mailbox function saw the bogus empty mailbox on the old server and deleted it (and then didn't bother moving it because of the error). This happened to about 5 mailboxes out of 250.

Invisible corrupt message on EX5.5 server

Followup on OWA suddenly died thread
Last Friday I reported that all of the sudden our Exchange 5.5 OWA server started crashing with ASP 0115 errors. Andy David (the godlike one) immediately zeroed in on my usage of Outlook 2003 and it's effect. While researching the problem I found that it was only MY mailbox that would crash it, so I started to clean out my inbox (completely emptying it) and also emptying my deleted items folder which was pretty full. I then got the patch from MS by calling PSS and having them email it to me. I tried a before test but I could no longer crash OWA with my cleaned up inbox. I applied the CDO patch ONLY to my OWA server, not to the Exchange mail server. I did this because rebooting the OWA server is no big problem, but rebooting the exchange server should probably only be done after hours. So I can't verify that the patch works, but it probably does. I'm not going to load up my inbox again just to see. The OWA server has been running fine since Friday.

OWA just quit after years of running - error 'ASP 0115'
Our OWA server for exchange 5.5 sp4 is running on an NT4 box separate from our exchange servers. The old exchange server is running nt4sp6a and exchange 5.5 sp4. The new exchange server (that all the mailboxes are now on) is on windows 2000 sp3 and exchange 5.5 sp4. A user just told me today that OWA quit working 2 days ago. I tried it today and just got a blank screen (no web page ever loaded). I rebooted the server and it worked briefly but soon will fail with an ASP 0115 error. For example, after rebooting, I try to log in and get the name PW prompt, and then see my inbox OK, but when I click on a message I usually get the following error: error 'ASP 0115' Unexpected error /exchange/USA/root.asp A trappable error occurred in an external object. The script cannot continue running. I looked at the knowledgebase article and there are a whole bunch of things to check, but this server has been running fine for years and has never had this problem. No changes were made recently and the even log is clean over the last 3 days except for after I rebooted it and I get the ASP error, it logs Event ID 5: Error: File /exchange/USA/root.asp Unexpected error For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. I also see a new W3SVC error with event ID 105 that says: The server was unable to register the administration tool discovery information. The administration tool may not be able to see this server. The data is the error code. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp I have no idea what this one means or if it is related. Has anyone seen this type of error or have any suggestions on what to try first? I am thinking of re-applying exchange SP4 on the OWA machine as I can reboot that at any time (especially since it is not working very well). I also noticed that after reboot the WWW publishing service is not always started and I have to manually start it (it is set to automatic).

RE: OWA just quit after years of running - error 'ASP 0115' - Get ting Wierder and Wierder
I have now determined that after cleaning out the webtemp directory and rebooting, I can access other peoples mailboxes without crashing OWA. Once I try to access mine, it (inetinfo.exe) dies trying to render my inbox. I think I will clean out my inbox and see what happens next. I have been searching google for related problams and have found several people with very similar problems and no solution ever posted. Microsoft suggested to one admin to just upgrade to Exchange 2000 and that would probably fix his problem. I guess if I upgraded my '89 Toyota Corolla to a '04 model that would probably fix the nasty carburettor problems it has too...

SAV for SMTP Gateways - blocking extensions within ZIP??
I am running Symantec Antivirus for SMTP gateways version 3.1.0.29. This has an option to block attachments by extension, but this blocks files even when they are in ZIP files. The Symantec (Norton) antivirus that runs on our exchange server (5.5) has a registry setting to control whether or not it looks in ZIP files for bad extension (it always scans for viruses in ZIP files). Does anyone know how to configure SAV for SMTP gateways to allow bad extensions when they are stored in ZIP files?

RE: PST version - revisited
I have had good luck repairing bad (over 2G) pst files by using ontrack's easyrecovery utility. I bought the version that does all types of office files (doc, xls, mdb, pst) as well as doing low level hard disk recovery and it was about $500. You can get the various pieces for less. I did try the Microsoft approved method, which was to run a utility that chops off the file at 2G (you have to experiment to find out how much). Chopped off data is lost forever. Then you run scanpst and it can recover some of the data, but in the one I tried it lost all the folder names (it had to make up new names). Using easyrecovery resulted in two good PST's (it was over 2g so the output couldn't fit into one). Everything looked fine in the recovered PST files.

NAV for Exchange 5.5 is freaking out...
I am running Exchange 5.5 sp4 on a win2k server. I am running NAV for Exchange version 2.18 and no other antivirus software on the server. It has been running fine for months without problems. Today it started spewing the two following errors to the screen over and over and over: NAVEVAPI error NAVEVAPI.DLL Internal Error. A Microsoft Exchange store memory allocation has failed. (C:\NAVMSE\Source\NAVEVAPI\NAVEVAPI.CPP, 675) NAVEVAPI error NAVEVAPI.DLL Internal Error. Error Code = 0xc0090094, Additional = (null) (C:\NAVMSE\Source\NAVEVAPI\NAVEVAPI.CPP, 1131) I was also getting a bunch of alerts from my Blackberry server (running on a different machine) that I believe were just a side effect of the NAV broo-ha-ha. The virus defs are the latest from yesterday 6-1-2003 rev2. I have seen these navevapi.dll errors sporadically (one ever couple of days) but they did not seem to cause any problems. Now the errors are occurring about every second while the NAV service is running. I stopped NAV for now and have not seen any errors in the event log for about 15 minutes now (including blackberry). Has anyone seen this or does anyone have suggestions for getting NAV running again??

RE: NAV for Exchange 5.5 is freaking out...
Thanks for all the replies. I had tried stopping starting the service earlier but got the errors as soon as it restarted. I also just got a message that someone was having trouble mailing a 7Meg PDF files to another exchange server in the same orgainization but over a WAN link. Maybe this email was causing NAV to freak. I had already downloaded the latest definitions but didn't update them right away because they were the same. I went ahead and ran the updater (the exe) while NAV was stopped and also went into the two lastest definitions directories and deleted a few files that were older than the definitions. Somehow the old files get pulled into the new definition directory during an update and I don't think they are needed. As soon as I started the service NAV moved the files from INCOMING to the dated directory and hasn't complained yet. Hopefully this fixes it. I am guessing that the problem was either the definitions were messed up or something about the 7meg email was causing nav to crash.

I had tried stopping starting the service earlier but got the errors as soon as it restarted.

I had already downloaded the latest definitions but didn't update them right away because they were the same. I went ahead and ran the updater (the exe) while NAV was stopped and also went into the two lastest definitions directories and deleted a few files that were older than the definitions. Somehow the old files get pulled into the new definition directory during an update and I don't think they are needed. As soon as I started the service NAV moved the files from INCOMING to the dated directory and hasn't complained yet. Hopefully this fixes it. I am guessing that the problem was either the definitions were messed up or something about the 7meg email was causing nav to crash.

However, one piece of advice...Go logon locally to the machine and do it from there. What we have had happen is that we restart the services via a remote session and it looks like it worked, but if you go logon locally, we were seeing the the service hadn't restarted...weird. 2) Nate and Bob are correct that it could very well be a corrupt .dat file...go reinstall it.

EX55: Message processing failed because there is not enough avail able memory
On an exchange 5.5 sp4 server running on win2k, the IMC shut down because the IS complained that: Message processing failed because there is not enough available memory (EVENT ID 12800). This was followed by events 4182 and 4102 (ims shutting down due to serious error i.e. 12800) There was one message in the inbound directory of the IMC and it would not start until I removed that message. There was nothing unusual about that message, it was one that BLAT had generated from a backup process I have scheduled. After that restart, it ran for a while and then choked on two other messages. One was another BLAT message and the third was a MPEG movie somebody had mailed in (probably a funny one, I haven't looked at it). All 3 messages were about 10k bytes in length. MS has a knowledgebase article about this problem: (or something very close) http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q325939 Which says: If the Internet Mail Service receives a malformed inbound Internet message, the Internet Mail Service may log event ID 12800, 4182, 4102, and 1001 error messages in the Application event log, and then stop responding. RESOLUTION A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Apply it only to computers that are experiencing this specific problem. The fix is a new store.exe version 5.5.2656.60. I am currently running store.exe 5.5.2654.50 (a post sp4 fix). After zapping those 3 emails, the IMC has been running for about an hour now with no problems (and it has never had a problem before). Does anyone have any insight on this problem? If it happens again I will call MS and request the patch, as it is not available for download.

EX55: problem routing by email domain to multiple mail hosts
On our Exchange 5.5 server we are using DNS for most outbound mail to determine where the message is routed to. We have a VPN link with another division that we use to encrypt emails over the internet. It appears that you can only specify a single address to route the mail to per domain. Is there some way to have it try multiple addresses in the event of a failure? The only thing I can think of is to have our DNS person hard code these special routes into the MX records so we do not end up using the MX records on the root servers.

PST over 2Gig repair notes...
We had a user try to clean up his server mailbox by dragging everything into his PST. He is using Outlook 2000, which was quite happy to stuff messages into the PST until it was destroyed. The error message you get is to try the inbox repair tool. I found the one that came with the office 11 beta (that was part of the free exchange 2003 cd pack) hoping it might be better than older versions. It was not. It could not do any good so I then used the 2Gig chop off tool (PST2gb.exe). This tool basically says try chopping off part of the file and see if scanpst will work. If it doesn't, they try chopping off a little more and repeat... Well once I chopped off enough for scanpst to work it came up with a repaired PST that looked pretty grim. There were some folders with made up folder names, and some subfolders that still had their original names. I googled around a little looking for pst repair and downloaded ONTRACK's file repair thing (demo). The demo worked its way through the PST and then claimed to have repaired a bunch of folders (with the correct names) on the original oversized PST (no chopping required). I then shelled out $500 for the full ONTRACK easyrecovery pro thing (could have just bought the file recovery part for $340) and let it work. It produced one 2G pst and one smaller pst that looked pretty good. I gave those back to the user and haven't heard any complaints yet about lost mail etc, so it looks like the utility is pretty good. Is there any way to prevent Outlook 2000 from overstuffing a PST?? I am pretty sure that Outlook 2002 pops up a warning or something when you are about to get into trouble. It seems like this huge flaw in outlook should have been addressed by a service pack.

Office 11 beta broke my Blackberry Intellisync???
I got the free CD set (paid for shipping) with exchange2003, server2003 and office2003 betas. I loaded the office beta on my desktop PC and now (maybe coincidentally or not) I can no longer sync in the cradle. When I go to the PIM settings it will not allow me to select outlook as a choice (the OK button is greyed out) for the notepad, mail or tasks. The calendar is still set to wireless sync which is working. Our BES server is 2.1 sp5 and I just loaded the 3.5a desktop on my pc to see if that helped (it did not). I did load the 3.5 desktop on another pc with office 2000 loaded and the unit will sync up fine on that machine.

RE: connect to exchange over vpn
It could also be an MTU problem (see recent discussion on the list). If it is MTU related, you keep pinging with some command line options (no frag and vary the ping packet size) and see how large you can make the packet before it fails. Then download and use doctor-tcp to set the MTU for that interface. Dr-tcp just makes it easy to set the registry for the custom MTU size. The MTU setting is in a registry tree below the name of the network interface (which varies from machine to machine) so you can't just merge a REG file to set the MTU.

RE: Pole on largest PRIV.EDB size?
Our PRIV.MDB is about 35Gig. On our old server we used Backup Exec 7.3 (w/exchange option) and a Sony AIT tape drive that stores 35/70G of data. On our new replacement server (same PRIV being moved over) we are using NTBACKUP to both tape and hard drive. I do the hard drive backup first, then back up to an HP Ultrium 100/200G drive. The hard drive is on the same machine and is about twice as fast as the tape backup. We are using the half-height HP drive which is theoretically slower than the full height one.

EX5.5: Move mailbox that is over 2Gig???
I have set up a new Exchange5.5 server to replace an aging 5.5 server. I have been using Exmerge to backup mailboxes to PST files (in addition to the daily backup) before moving mailboxes (just in case). We have a few mailboxes on the old server that are over 2gig in size. Exmerge will not put more than 2gig into the PST files, so I'm a little nervous about moving these biggies without a brick style backup. I will probably end up forcing those users to clean up their inboxes but I was wondering if Move Mailbox would have any issues with these big mailboxes?

Change to different organization without losing SIS??
From what I understand of the Move Server Wizard and exmerge we would lose SIS (Single Instance Storage) if we used the wizard (or any other method??) to change our organization. (??) We are currently running Exchange 5.5 and our parent company (which we may need to change our organization to someday) is also running 5.5 today.

At first NAV for exchange wasn't starting due to the changed IP address (they are on a different subnet). I found the old IP in the registry and changed it and now NAV starts. I moved one user right away with no problems but forget which server I did the move on (I remote control the other server). Now today when I tried to move some more users, the progress screen would just flash on the screen for a second and go away. In the event log it just had an ID 1800 error (could not move user doe, john) and no other information or errors. I tried a couple of mailboxes and got the same result (this was on the remote server). I then tried it on the first server and it worked just fine there. Very strange...

RE: Maximum number of email addresses in a single container??
Thanks for your reply. I have not had any problems since making this big container. I did try one foolish thing - I tried to import all these addresses into a single outlook contacts folder. The import was going fine for a few minutes until outlook (2002) exploded (I hope they put me back on the office beta again). When I restarted outlook there were over 29000 addresses in the folder. I then found that there is a 32000ish limit. Seems like outlook should just say Folder Full or something else short of crashing.

RE: Hotmail problems?
Yes, we have a few outbound messages waiting for hotmail to accept them for the last few hours. -Original Message- From: Andrey Fyodorov [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 11:11 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Hotmail problems? Hi all. I am having intermittent problems sending to Hotmail. Some of the Hotmail servers seem to reject connections. If I send a message 3-4 times, eventually it hits a good Hotmail server and gets delivered. Has anyone else seen such behavior recently?

Maximum number of email addresses in a single container??
On an Exchange 5.5 server, what is the maximum number of addresses that can be placed (or are recommended) in a single container?

RE: Maximum number of email addresses in a single container??
This is completely UN-automated. I manually get the foreign addresses by having a logon onto the parent company exchange network and using a shareware thing called GAL-Exporter (I think it was about $40). GAL exporter can either export individual containers (of which there are way too many to consider doing separately) or the Global list. The exported mailbox info is saved into an Access database file. From Access, I then export the file to a CSV (comma separated variable) file. Before reading this into EXCEL, I first had to split it into two parts because EXCEL can only handle 64000 rows. After reading it into excel, I deleted the columns I did not need, and put the appropriate header line at the top and re-saved it to CSV. I also had to add the string SMTP: to the beginning of each email address (or Target-Address in header-speak). After adding a column of SMTP:'s, I then used a text editor to replace SMTP:, with SMTP: which merged this to the address column. I then used the exchange administrator to import all of these into a single container that I had just created on the server.

I'm interested in hearing what tool you're using to keep the external org addresses in sync -- is the the InterOrg tool? We're in discussions with our parent company about this very task. Thanks!

Latest NAV for Exchange 5.5 ??
I am running NAVMSE version 2.17 build 75 on my exchange 5.5 server. Are there any newer versions available for exchange 5.5? I have background scanning enabled (and combo mode) and still get errors (from outlook) when sending emails with attachments. Outlook tells me the delivery failed, and the message seems to disappear for a while (does not even show up in sent items) but after a few minutes it does get delivered OK (and then shows up in sent items). I probably just need a faster server as it seems that outlook is timing out while the server struggles to keep up with scanning.
