Does anyone know of a way of bulk hiding Custom Recipients from the
GAL? I've got to hide about 400 contacts from an external company.
I've got them listed in Find Recipients, but I don't much fancy hiding
them all individually. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to do
this? Sadly, company policy dictates that they all get hidden now,
then deleted in a
month or so, so the delete key is out of the question :~{

Asunto: Bulk hiding GAL entries?
Does anyone know of a way of bulk hiding Custom Recipients from the
GAL? I've got to hide about 400 contacts from an external company.
I've got them listed in Find Recipients, but I don't much fancy hiding
them all individually. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to do
this? Sadly, company policy dictates that they all get hidden now,
then deleted in a
month or so, so the delete key is out of the question :~{
Oh yeah, Ex55 SP4, NT4 SP6
Thanks in advance
Tim

Have to say this list has save my ass on many occasions. Recently the file blocking discussions save me from the GONE.SCR, Thanks for the tips. Just a simple question I will not mind if I do not get an answer. Anybody knows how big can a personal folder grow? The reason I asked is my users are growing and I am running out of disk space. We are due to an upgrading from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2000 at the mid next yr. At the mean time I am advising the users to temporary pull their mails to the personal folder. I read it somewhere the personal folder cannot be too large. In fact anything above 1 G is not advisable. Definitely Microsoft must have a design spec, say .edb file in Ex 5.5 standard is 16 G; so .pst must have a design limitation. It will not be safe for 1 G, 2 G ... At the moment I am advising them not to have it more than 1G, but to the mid next yr is a long time.. Any points to enlighten on this issue is appreciatd. One more thing I am trying out Antigen, not bad at all.

Re: Blocking files extentions
We have an Email Filtering Software (Cameo Recon) that scans the messages that are already in the users mailbox. I did use that to clean all the .scr files, plus we use Norton.

Subject: RE: Exchange over a SAN
I can not say whether Exchange on a SAN is supported or not...not my position. IBM Global Services salespeople have mentioned Exchange being used on a SAN and using Tivoli to back it up. I would expect it to be able to handle it. I have had Exchange 5.5 servers operating off a Compaq Fibre Array 4100 for external storage...100 MBPS links and an external Gateway array, but never a SAN. If it looks like a drive to the server and performance is good, it should work. Someone had mentioned on here about having to down Exchange, the server, etc to expand space if it were on a SAN. While this may be true for 5.5, one can always add another Storage Group or possibly even another Mailbox Store and move messages with Exchange 2000. HOWEVER, the SAN person did mention the Performance Optimizer...therefore not yet E2K and still on 5.5. My suggestion is to seriously consider Exchange 2000 and Active Directory. It will make your life a whole lot easier when it comes to expansion and also policies on mailboxes (students 20MB, faculty 500 MB (students mailing projects instead of putting them on a shared drive, etc).) Exchange 2000 is great. I am looking forward to Kodiak (Exchange .Net or whatever). It is supposedly going to leave the Jet database in favor of RDBMS...SQL .Net. Technology has really advanced going from 5.5 to 2000. Who knows, with .Net, it may actually be supported on a SAN...but it may require the SAN vendor to certify it and all that stuff.

RE: Blocking files extentions
We are using Scan Mail, and while I would love to get more info on where things are originating from etc., the basic thing is that it blocks all sorts of stuff, and strips off the attachments I have specified, and puts them in quarantine. Then, when Sophos scans the quarantine drive, it shreds anything it recognises as a virus. Anything left in the quarantine folder after that is more than likely safe. (I have scan mail strip out Martin's list of what to block) This worked really well with goner-a as it pulled the .scr file out to quarantine before it hit the store, and then Sophos spotted it and killed it. I must have got that thing come in 100 times, and we did not get hit. So yes, blocking by file extension is the way to go for sure! -Original Message- From: John J.

RE: Create Reports for Exchange 5.5 mailboxes
I used to check the last login date and anything not logged into for some time would be marked for deletion. Once Exchange antivirus software was installed this no longer worked. Antigen and Trend both use the service account to login to the IS to scan all mailboxes every time the services startup or when either a scheduled or manual scan occur. I haven't been able to get our NetIQ software to give me a report of last login and when we had Bindview here they said that their software could do it but the package the company was looking at purchasing didn't make the budget. I did demo promodag but I did not see a report for this option. Can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thank-you everyone for all of your suggestions. We now have a very finely tuned exchange server because of this. The solution was related to redundant nics in our Compaq 1850R. The primary nic was plugged into a Linkbuilder Switch that was also connected to 2 other floors. This created bandwidth contention for the exchange server with about 100 other workstations. Our secondary Nic was plugged into a brand new 3com 3300XL (100mps switch - which I thought was active), however it was not active. I pulled the primary cable out from the linkbuilder - the nics failed over to the secondary and the speed issue was fixed. There server is now 10X faster, no word of a lie.

The slowdown mainly happens at peak times,(9-10am and 2-3pm) however we have noticed it with attachments and at other times as well. It sometimes can take 5-8 seconds to open an e-mail with an attachment where we have been getting immediate response before. For scrolling through messages in Outlook we have also noticed a slow down. Also - when copying an attachment from an e-mail to your local machine,(right click and copy, then paste to desktop) this response time has decrease dramatically. Although these slowdowns do not stop us from working on a daily basis we would like to get on top of this issue and do what we need to do to keep our Exchange server speedy.
