Customizing OWA
Hi, I'm trying to add a button to the OWA navigation bar in Exchange 2000 SP3. I've got a copy of Microsoft's Customizing Microsoft Outlook Web Access, which describes how to do it, but either I've done it wrong, or it doesn't work the way that paper describes (maybe because it was written before that SP). Has anyone tried this, and if so, how did you get on?

Smart hosts
We are running Exchange 2000 SP3 on two servers in the same organisation. The second one has only been added recently, and only has one mailbox on it so far. We set up the original server's SMTP virtual server to use a smarthost which is a UNIX server, as it isn't accessible from the Internet, and can't access it either. Now we've added the second server, and set up its virtual server in a similar way. I was expecting the two Exchange servers to communicate directly when handling messages for mailboxes on each other (i.e. in the Exchange organisation), but use the smart host for all other mail. However, this isn't what's happening. Instead, all messages for mail stores not on the same server are going to the UNIX system, and the format of the message bodies looks pretty odd (lots of 8-bit data, for example). The SMTP interaction seems to break down after the bulk of the message has been received, and the UNIX server claims that the Exchange server has gone away (timeout). A complication with this is that the primary address for all recipients in the organisation ends in a domain that is shared with the UNIX server. However, I've followed the instructions in Microsoft's Q321721 (shared address spaces), and until we added the second server, all messages were delivered fine, to mailboxes on both the Exchange and UNIX server. It's still only the messages between the two Exchange servers that have a problem. Should I be using an SMTP connector rather than just the virtual server? Can anyone shed any light on what's going on?

RE: OWA from a client behind FW
If it's any help, we'v had this problem with a number of ISPs. It looks like some run caches that only accept a limited set of HTTP verbs, and throw away any request that uses others. This nobbles OWA. We found the answer was to put a certificate on the server and get people to access it via https:. Web proxies/caches have to tunnel SSL traffic, and we've had no further problems. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Andrea Coppini Sent: Wednesday, October 02, 2002 3:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: OWA from a client behind FW Thanks for the Q, but these servers (or the clients) are not behind a proxy. Apparently it's an ISP issue. A colleague of mine tried it from his home Cable connection (which is on the same ISP as the office) and he had the same problems. I tried it using my home ADSL connection (different ISP) and it was fine.

RE: Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-003 ?
Having been bitten by Microsoft hot-fixes before, I'm a bit nervous about doing this straight away, but on the other hand I don't like leaving these sort of holes open. Has anyone actually tried applying this fix, and if so, was Exchange OK afterwards?
