RE: Shortcuts to Outlook objects
Titles? Big problem? Nah? My full title is Devine Master of the Entire Universe and I've never had a problem with that. -Original Message- From: Greg Deckler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 07 February, 2003 17:29 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Shortcuts to Outlook objects And everyone could do everything that they do now in terms of helping people WITHOUT the MVP status. So what is the fascination with it? It is ego or something, it mystifies me. I keep hearing MVP's are so helpful, yadda yadda. But there is nothing stopping you from doing exactly the same things that you are doing WITHOUT being an MVP. Lawyers have actual ethics, written down and agreed to by everyone in the profession and if you violate those ethics, there are consequences, just ask Bill Clinton. There is nothing even close in IT. People may have personal their own personal ethics, but who cares? As long as the IT industry is tied to vendors and tools, it will continue to be polarized and it will continue to be a trade. The MVP program is part of this problem. It is not the entire part, but I think that it is much more insidious than going to a trade show and picking up free stuff, because it is the granting of a title. That, in and of itself is a big problem. You are so wrong that it pains me to even read your e-mail. I've gotten more critical feedback from those folks that are MVP's than most others. Not just generalities that Outlook doesn't have very good backwards compatibility, but why the development team did that and why they think they were wrong. They've said it in public forums as well. Ask a lawyer if they've received anything for free and they'll answer, damn right they have. I'm stunned that you would say that I have no ethics or are you just throwing around generalities in a trollish way? A vendor can give me a shirt, or a coffee mug doesn't mean that I won't call them to the carpet on their product. Just ask ANY of my vendors. If there is something wrong with their product or it doesn't do something I want it to do, then I let them know to fix their BAS. The title of MVP doesn't mean Microsoft pet. It's given to those people that have demonstrated knowledge in the field and a willingness to help others get the most from the product. If Chris or Ed or Missy or the Andy's or Martin or Robert or Tom tells me that something works or doesn't work, I know it's from their belief in what they've seen in the product. Not from something that the vendor told them to say. I've never seen one of them not tell it like it is. I've seen them be more critical of Microsoft than most anyone else. -Original Message- From: Greg Deckler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 07, 2003 10:50 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Shortcuts to Outlook objects So, you are going to tell me that you have never received any sort of compensation at all for being an MVP. I am talking T-Shirts, plastic toys, anything and even the TITLE of MVP. If you receive ANY FORM OF COMPENSATION, it is a conflict of interest. Plain and simple. Ask any lawyer if they are allowed to accept ANYTHING for free. The answer is absolutely not. In IT, it is a different story and the difference is because IT is a trade and lawyers are professionals. As long as we in IT continue to operate in this mode, we will be seen as trades-people, the air-conditioning repair guy or plumber, not professionals. The MVP program is a horrible, horrible insidious device that will help keep IT at the trade level. Plus, once you accept the title, you are now the property of the vendor. You will consciously or unconsciously have a bias toward that vendor and keeping that title. This means that you will not tell it like it is in public and instead voice concerns in private to your vendor. If you all want to be trades-people instead of professionals, then keep on with your MVP program. I tend to believe that the entire IT industry is irrevocably broken. Compare it to engineers, lawyers and other professionals and it does not stack up well. And that is sad, because we could be professional, but we have no ethics. I'm very interested to know what secret compensation he is speaking of.

RE: Exporting Public Folders to PSTs
Oh, and.. If your problem is like the one I had, moving the location of the folder will not help as the problem is item-based. To move PFs: Replicate to your new location and let replication finish (do not trust the Item Count, check that the Kilobytes figures correspond). Also, watch your disk space as you may be generating a lot of Transaction Logs, depending on the size of folders. Next re-home the PF to the new location. Check this is also replicated on all sub-folders. Finally, remove the original 'Replica'. Note, any recovery of deleted items can also cause a lot of Transaction Logs to be created if the users who recover the items are not themselves homed on the new server.

RE: Exchng32 and XP
Thanks Chris for your help. Just for the record, and posterity in the archives, should anyone else have a problem running the little Exchng32.exe on W2000 or XP, there is a version of WMS.exe which looks like it was designed to allow MS Mail migration to Novell GroupWise called NTWMS.exe. I found it zipped as WINNTWMS.exe on the university of North Texas site (well, of course! Where else?!). Must say also that it was another look at Slipstick.com which put me on the right trail. Note, it is best to uninstall it when you've finished with it.

RE: Stats for Email
TypePerf, available on XP, lets you query monitors (counters) and put the output into a csv file. It's free with Resource Pack (I think). You can schedule a job to set it off (from a workstation) and then design some Excel macros that will tidy up the data. I reckon you could get a fairly good system up and running in 2 - 3 weeks, so offset that cost against the cost of off-the-shelf stuff.

IMAP POP3 logging on Exch5.5
Hi All, In Q182504 MS make out it's really easy to turn POP3 and IMAP logging on and off using a change to the Registry. They say that the next session will activate the Registry change. Well, yes and no. On one server I can get the file handle on all but one log file released, on another I only get one of the 5 files released. We need to log continuously as we have round the globe POP3 access and the logs help us troubleshoot. But the logs keep growing and now take over 15 minutes to open, so I'd like to close them when they're quite small and let Exchange open new ones. And I don't want to keep restarting the IS. Any ideas?

RE: Restore Single Mailbox
Thanks for the replies. (I hadn't come across this Q in my searching - many thanks.) Trouble is that I had restarted the IS before I read this Q article! [= consistent IS up to last backup, but not the post-backup transactions]. Restore - even with the Restore in Progress key LOOKS through the post-backup Logs but doesn't play them. My boss thinks there's something which says they have been played already so don't bother playing them again. [?] I have created a new IS from the tape so I don't think they have been played at all against this IS. The data is not in the IS. I was thinking that since the post-backup logs were copied manually there is nothing to tell Exchange 'old' and 'new' database paths like the reg key does, so the logs want to play into a dbase on G: (original drive) while the actual IS I'm restoring to is on an F: drive. Could this be possible? The users concerned were less than over the moon to have lost half a day's email but they've left us now! I've got time to try this again (with a smaller database this time). It seems the most imporatant thing is NOT to start the IS until, well, one knows exactly what one is doing! Thanks again.

Hi. I came across this list while trying to find a solution the following, and it seemed like a friendly and helpful list and hope someone might be able to help. Back in January there was discussion of the error Can't move the items. The item could not be moved. It was either already moved or deleted, or access was denied. The chap was concerned about Contacts and the solution was to recreate a Contacts folder. My problem is with the Sent Items folder. I am awate that Norton Exchange Realtime Scan can cause this, but I have disabled it. Being a system folder, I cannot delete the Sent Items - not even with the Exchange client. Does anyone know how to delete system folders, maybe a bit of VB? We're on exchange 5.5, client is Outlook98, OS is W95 (don't ask me why??!!)
