Missing Distrubution List Address Objects
Hi all, Here is the background : EXCH 5.5 (SP4) on NT4 Server (SP6a) The entire IS has was restored from backups due to corruption. The restored server has come back online with a number of distribution lists missing i.e. not visible from the EXCH admin GUI. The missing distrubution lists still exist with the site (as mail is distrubuted to intended recipients as per normal) they just aren't accessable for modification via the admin GUI. My question is : is it possible to purge or edit these 'ghost' address objects from the server using a utility?

RE: Moving ...
Title: Message ERm if I am correct you want to keep the old server online for a bit. The clients MAPI profiles currently point to that server. If my memory serves me right, after their mailbox is moved they will initially hitthe old server... and it will redirect them to the new server and their profile will be updated. If you take down the old server before the clients get a chance to update, they'll just hang and not be automatically redirected. -Original Message-From: Matthew Carpenter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 10:16 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Moving ...

username format
I finally migrated my Exchange server to a new server.

RE: username format
The OWA uses the domain that the server is a member of.

Exchange 5.5 Incorrect Mailbox Size Reported
Good afternoon, I am having a problem with Microsoft Exchange (5.5 - SP3) reporting a different mailbox size than what Outlook is reporting. If I go to properties on the user's mailbox, it reports a size of @ 133MEGS. If I go through the list of the individual objects in the mailbox and add them up, I come up with @ 37MEGS.

Title: Message Have you seen what a CR does to an e-mail when it passes through it? The e-mail enters you system and is forwarded to the CR SMTP address. The original senders address is sent as the return path in the mail. So if the mail were to bounce because of limits, it would attempt to deliver to the original sender not back to the CR. No mail loop. Most of the time. It still does happen on occasion. The original questions answer is because (I think) he has auto forwarding to the internet turned off and even though it is using a CR, it is still auto forwarding it and the IMC picks it out that way. -Original Message-From: Garland Mac Neill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 3:13 PMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Forward to external email account Which can and will crash your Exchange server if you don't notice it in time. -Original Message-From: Leone, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 7:42 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Forward to external email account I meant mailbox size limits at AOL, Yahoo, etc. Resulting in a bouncing mail loop. -- Michael Leone, Systems Administrator Philadelphia Contributionship 210 S. 4th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106 mailto: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] V: 215-627-1752 x1282 F: 215-627-5354 -Original Message-From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 9:07 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Forward to external email account Which is why you want to use a CR or mail-enabled contact to forward. -Original Message-From: Leone, Michael [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 9:02 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Forward to external email account Mailbox size limits, usually. -- Michael Leone, Systems Administrator Philadelphia Contributionship 210 S. 4th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106 mailto: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] V: 215-627-1752 x1282 F: 215-627-5354 -Original Message-From: Andy David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 9:01 AMTo: MS-Exchange Admin IssuesSubject: RE: Forward to external email account Why not?

RE: Exchange Server Move
The change in the mx record is going to take 24-48 hours to propogate around the internet. I would grab an old workstation and make it a relay on the old side. Then move the exchange server to the other side and configure it with the new IP addressing scheme. Point the relay to the new IP address. Call your ISP and change the mx records. The relay will handle all mail sent to the old addess while the change is being propogated to the rest of the world and your new server will be in place when they do get the changes. -Original Message- From: Yurchuk, Michael W.

distribution lists...where should it be located?
We are in the process of migrating our exchange 5.5 users to exchange 2000. We are successful in adding ADC and all other stuff so they are now both in the exchange 5.5 site. We moved a couple of mailboxes to the exchange 2000 server and so far everything is working except on some distribution lists. I'm not sure where the distribution list shoud be located. Should it be on exchange 5.5 or exchange 2000 server? I know that it is copied to the active directory so it has a mirror image. However, when it has the copy, is it ok to delete the distribution list on exchange 5.5 if it is already on exchange 2000?

For so long as you have active users on both 5.5 and 2000, then the DL's would need to reside on both. If you have a two way replication agreement, this is likely happening.

RE: Mail stuck in Outbox
In any problem like this there cannot be too much detail about the details. It's what you HAVEN'T told us that will lead to a solution. And most importantly, it's what makes the working test machine different from the broken production machine that is key. Are both test and production clients operating remotely via same type of Internet connection (dialup?) and VPN? If not - do that. You said the PST was removed from the profile. That means the user now works online. Make sure your test machine is also working online with no PST and still works over the VPN. If both of you login to the mailbox at the same time and the user sends a message, you should see the message appear in the Outbox on your test machine. Does it deliver? Note that if this is a dialup VPN, and working online, Outbox messages can take 5 minutes or longer to deliver. If the user gets impatient, bad things can happen, such as... 1. User opens message from the Outbox 2. User clicks the close-window X button on the open message and now that message will never deliver... Just shooting in the dark, hoping to hit something...
