RE: Header Info
Verizon is a major telco, ISP provider in my area. I've tried telnet'ing from my box and I get connected for about 5 seconds then it drops my connectiom, I get a message that the connection to host was lost. How I was able to figure out they were blocking my domain was by having a friend from outside my company try to send a basic helo command with the from address a yahoo account and another from my domain account. The yahoo command completed successfully but my e-mail was blocked, I forget the exact error. They are blocking me, it's just a matter of getting someone on the phone who can help me. > I think that depends on the response code that your server receives from > the target SMTP server.

RE: Header Info
That is what I'm trying to tell this admin at Verizon.net. They recently implemeneted this new anti-spam software that has started blocking our e-mail domain. We're not on any RBL's and our PTR record is correct. It's not kicking the e-mail right back to the end-user, it's retrying in the IMS queue then sending the NDR back to our senders. > If it never leaves the IMS, I don't think it will.

Pete, I had it running on my 5.5 box on NT 4.0 with no problems. I recently bought a sweet new box (thanks Dell) and began the server move (thanks ed). For some reason Groupshield doesn't play well with permissions and the service accounts on Windows 2000.

RE: Exchange Services
I understand the difference between domain and exchange admin rights. I only wrote that for purposes of brevity in this post. (I should have been more specific). For clarification, I have a service account setup to start and run the Exchange services and the admin account has appropriate permissions at the three levels within Exchange admin. I have the same admin account setup on my old (and still running) Exchange 5.5 box on NT 4.0 and I can backup without a problem. (both w/Veritas and NTBackup). Is there something with Windows 2000 that I am missing? I noticed the addition of a service in 2000, the Exchange Event Service which doesn't start with the service account that starts the other Exchange services on this server. What is that service for and why does it only start with the admin account login info? > Geez, I missed the Exchange 5.5 part, with the talk of Windows 2000. > > I recommend against using the Exchange Service Account for anything except > running the Exchange Services; it's too easy to screw things up with that. > Make an account for running backups with lower permissions. > > Ed Crowley MCSE+Internet MVP > Freelance E-Mail Philosopher > Protecting the world from PSTs and Bricked Backups!T > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ben Winzenz > Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2003 10:48 AM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Exchange Services > > Domain admin doesn't mean snot when it comes to Exchange 5.5.

Exchange Services
I just setup a new Exchange 5.5/4 server on Windows 2000. (I'm in the process of using Ed's move server method). I installed the new server in the same org/site with a different name and I moved all my users mailboxes over. Everything seems to be working as planned until I try to backup the IS. I use Backup Exec (9.0) and it was failing with "access denied to database information store". Made sure all the permissions were correct and they are so I then tried to use plain old NTBackup, whick it too failed with the following Event ID: Event Source: NTBackup Event ID: 8010 Description: Microsoft Exchange services returned 'Access is denied. 'from a call to 'BackupOpen()' additional data '\\Servername\E$\exchsrvr\DSADATA\\edb4.log' Any thoughts or suggestions? Could I have hosed the store during the move? (I used Exchange Server Admin to move the mailboxes). Veritas suggested running eseutil and isinteg to check the integrity of the IS.

RE: Exchange and SQL
The old Exchange box is a relic, it's going one way or the other and I wouldn't use it for solitare at this point. This whole discussion arouse when I put together a request for a new Exchange server. I don't think I am going to be able to win the argument to keep them separate.

RE: Host Unreachable
I'm not at the site where I can ping from the Exchange server but I will give that a shot this afternoon. I have been having some intermitant DNS issues so that must be it.

Host Unreachable
Good Morning, I'm running Exchange 5.5/4 (NT4.0/6a). I'm having problems sending e-mail to a specific domain, spectra.ca or spectraesolutions.com. Any e-mail to those domains sits in my IMS outbound queue. They can send to me but when I reply I run into the same problem. I've contacted the admin of that domain and he told me they are running Exchange 2000 and they are not requiring reverse DNS lookup.

RPC Problems?
Exchange 5.5/4 on NT 4.0/6a. I recently started having problems with mail messages getting stuck in our users (about 100) outboxes for a minute or two, then being sent. Clients are using Outlook 98, 2000 and 2002 and the symtoms are the same for all. After a fresh reboot of the server the problem goes away temporarily but as the day goes on, the message delivery time gets longer and longer. I've checked the archives and read past posts on this issue and the recommended solutions point to AV issues or RPC issues. I've gone as far as uninstalling our AV software on the server and running a test and the problem still persists. (I stopped the IMS and no users were on the system). From what I've read on the RPC side that's only a problem if the messages aren't leaving the outbox at all. Is this true? It doesn't matter if the recipient is part of the GAL or the message is to be routed through the IMS, they all hang. I've also noticed that my server is hanging at the Windows NT screen upon reboot.
