Strange e-mail issue with one user
Exchange 2k3 Outlook 2k3 I have one user who is experiencing this problem. I have tested from her machine and verified that it is happening. We have had PC changeouts recently, so it's not a problem with her specific machine. Each month, she fills out her timesheet, and e-mails it as an attachment to the time clerk. Or her boss, or someone else in her unit. She opens a new e-mail, fills in the To: and CC: boxes, fills in the Subject line, attaches the timesheet, and hits Send. The message then shows up in her Sent Items, for about 10-15 seconds, then disappears. The recipients never receive the message. It happens only with the timesheets, whether she has one, or her whole unit's timesheets in the message. It's not a size issue, as one timesheet is only a couple hundred KB in size. It is also an intermittent issue, as I have also stood behind her, watching, and sometimes it will work. The strangest part, is that it only happens with timesheets, which are .xls documents. Any other time, attaching any other file, is no problem. Any ideas where I can start to troubleshoot this?

RE: Strange e-mail issue with one user
Within our agency. I can't imagine it being a rule, as it is an intermittent issue. Sometimes, the mail will go, others it sits in the Sent Items a few seconds and disappears. Also, it seems that if she adds another document to the e-mail, such as a Word doc, then it goes. Haven't tested multiple times for consistency on that one though. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
RE: Strange e-mail issue with one user
Yep, I sent it yesterday afternoon, my time, right about the time the Lyris server stopped sending stuff out. We're running Symantec Corp. v.10 here on the desktops. Wouldn't there be some kind of notification that it found something bad? We're also running Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange on the Exchange box, but there's no notices from that end either. ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
OT: Friday Humor
We all know how great Microsoft products are as well as being absolutely foolproof to use. Sunday morning I stumbled upon this that is so sick^H^H^H^H good that I just had to pass it along right away. I get a daily e-mail from the New York Times that gives me what they refer to as Today's Headlines. One of the stories mentioned was this: Microsoft Songsmith Is Easy (if Painful to Hear) 'By RANDALL STROSS Microsoft's new software to vamp behind your vocals is generating buzz, but only for being cringe-worthy. Follow this link to see the story (registration may be required): http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/25/business/25digi.html?_r=1themc=th TinyURL: http://tinyurl.com/apjndu (Hopefully this link will still work today.) Well, one thing leads to another, and they mention YouTube videos, so I had to go over there and look to see what they are talking about. Of course, I wasted far too much time at YouTube, but I have listed, for you, a few of the videos over there about this software, starting with the Microsoft ads. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3oGFogwcx-Efeature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jewxFiDQ22wfeature=related Then, onto some videos of songs that you may know, recreated by running the vocals through Songsmith: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BZk6aZp9xE What's Going On by Marvin Gaye, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbtlEPIlyfUfeature=related Roxanne by The Police, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypycpKQxXR0feature=related If, for some reason, you are not familiar with any of these tunes, Look for related videos in the column on the right of the page for one you are familiar with and see how it got slaughtered. \\Steve// ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

Outlook through VPN issues
I connect a user in a workgroup to a corporate remote domain through PPTP VPN with his domain credential. The connection is successfull an I can even map drives from remote server. I create his account on Outllok2003 sp3 (OWA works OK) in cached mode The exchange server name is well resolved giving the internal IP and the user name as well, but when trying to download the items I get a Exchange Server unavailable response. Could be an authentication problem or what other ? TIA GuidoElia HELPPC ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
