Questions about masquerade domains
Morning all, hope someone can educamate me on this topic. I am looking at this setting on our Exchange 2003 SP2 environment, and note that there is something entered in there. When I look on our external SMTP proxy I see that there are outbound emails referencing the Masquerade domain. The emails referenced originate from either a Web based IT Service desk which connects to a mailbox on the Exchange server, or from an Exchange server which routes email from a remote site to the local Exchange server through a routing group connector. I am wondering why this is, and if anyone uses masquerade domains what is the practical use for them. Me no understand :-) Thanks in advance.

OT: Wednesday's Wonder
Hate to intrude on your workday like this, certainly, you have much better things to do than read this. Just came in over the wire: Widow of Murdered Fly Seeks White House Apology Grieving widow Grieving widow faces uphill legal Battle against President WASHINGTON -- The widow of the housefly murdered by Barack Obama During a recent CNBC television interview announced this morning That she would be filing a wrongful death suit against the President in federal district court. The plaintiff brief -- citing Pain, suffering and loss of income -- seeks a formal apology and Compensatory damages, including an unspecified quantity of [feces]. Bob was a wonderful husband and provider, said the widow, Mrs. Vivian Vvzzvzwwzzz, wiping tears from her compound eyes. Even Though he was always busy at the Rose Garden turd pile, he always Flew home in time to tuck in our maggots. The 17-day old widow said the grieving process since the murder has Taken its toll. Although it's been nearly 48 hours, I still get an empty feeling In my thorax every time I think about it, she said. I feel like I've aged an entire week. Mating season is over, and here I am, Stuck trying to raise 532 larvae on my own. Vvzzvzwwzzz described the abdomen-wrenching horror she Experienced while watching the President casually assassinate her Husband during the live broadcast. It was just before supper time and I was predigesting the evening [feces] for the kids, she recalled. When I looked up at the TV I saw Bob there, and of course I was pretty excited. He started waving at Me, and then, all of a sudden, SLAP! My whole world, my life, laid Smashed across the back of Obama's left hand. And with 360 degree Peripheral vision and hundreds of eye facets, it was impossible to Look away. Ever since the incident, Mrs. Vvzzvzwwzzz said she had been trying To piece her life back together. I just get paralyzed wondering how I'm going to raise my larvae For the next six days, alone, without any kind of support, she Said. Most days I just end up on the clung to the ceiling, numb And crying, eating a rancid bowl of Ben Jerry's. Breaking down, an emotionally distraught Vvzzvzwwzzz was comforted By PETA President Ingrid Newkirk and ACLU President Nadine Strossen. The two groups announced they will file an amicus brief In the case and file a separate class action suit against the Insecticide, flyswatter and pest strip industries, seeking over 1 Million metric tons of compensatory [feces] on behalf of 200 billion Fly-Americans. The President's treatment of the Fly community has been extremely Disappointing, said Newkirk. He almost seemed to relish his Bloodthirsty attack on Mr. Vvzzvzwwzzz. It's obvious he's in the Pocket of Big Manure. University of Tennessee law professor Glenn Reynolds said Vvzzvzwwzzz v. Obama is likely to raise several thorny Constitutional issues. The courts have a lot of questions to sort out here, he said. For example, can a sitting president be forced to testify in a Civil suit? Can he give himself immunity? How does this affect the Rights of cooties and crab lice? Also, just how completely bat[feces] Insane is PETA? Despite the prospect of facing a challenge from the President's Formidable legal team, Vvzzvzwwzzz said she was prepared to pursuit It all the way to the Supreme Court. If Mr. Obama thinks he can shoo me away with his legal briefs and His rolled-up New York Times, then he is sadly mistaken, said an Angry Vvzzvzwwzzz. He has no idea how persistent and annoying I Can be. I'm in this for the long haul. All the way till July, if I'm still alive. Reynolds cautioned that no matter how determined the plaintiff, Such a prolonged legal battle against the President could prove Prohibitively expensive. Mrs. Vvzzvzwwzzz is likely to end up spending millions in legal Fees, with an unknown probability of success. Even if she prevails, The ACLU and PETA lawyers will eat 40% of her [feces] settlement in Contingency fees, he said. Vvzzvzwwzz said she would be establishing a legal fund to help Defray the cost of the suit, and appealed to the public for Contributions. PETA has been very generous in relocating my family to a welcoming New neighborhood filled with filthy, stoned, slow-reflex vegans, But we still need money for court costs, she said. Help meee-eee! Help meee-ee-eee- eee! \\Steve// ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
Global Calendar / Private Calendar
Hi guys - Got a question here that doesn't seem to have an easy answer - at least to me. We're a school, running Exchange 2007 with Outlook. Employees use the Outlook calendar for their business meetings/etc. Each summer, we create a csv file of all the then school events/meetings/etc. Each employee is free to then import this into their personal calendar if they want. Most school admins do. The school calendar is also available to view in the Public Folders. Some school admin sync their smart phones/blackberrys as well, to have the information available wherever they are. Now, a couple months down the road - meeting dates/times change. Is there a way reflect those changes on everyone's calendar automatically? Thinking outside of the box, is there a completely different way that we could do this? I thought of a calendar in sharepoint, but I don't know enough to know that it would work... Google Calendar allows multiple calendars with sharing and can merge the calendars to look like one calendar - but not sure I want to go there yet. Any thoughts, suggestions?

RE: OOF for Outlook Anywhere user
We just moved to E07 and had that same issue. It's more of a DNS issue (at least, it was for us). To test, have the user ctrl-right-click on the Outlook icon in their taskbar. Select Test Email Autoconfiguration. From the choices, select AutoDiscover. Check out the Availablility Server URL. That may give you a clue to a resolution. As I said, for us, we just had to make a minor correction/addition to our internal DNS server.

RE: Is Exchange Doomed?
They advertise $10/user/mo + add'l services on their Exchange Online site. Are you suggesting that they will severely undercut that to sell the service? MS approached us about 2 years ago when I was working on the beginning of my Exchange 2007 transition plans. They had less than 20 customers on it and most of the names that they could tell us were large customers 10-100k+ seats. Doing the math, it doesn't seem like a worthy investment unless there are some huge price breaks. Fast forward to today, we are now looking at our costs to run the part of my Messaging infrastructure - Exchange and BB, perhaps to consider looking at the Exchange Online option again. At those rates, I don't see the benefit... Those of you who work for or own an EHS business, how do your customers, who use MAPI only for connectivity, connect up? Just use Outlook Anywhere? We had to look at several dedicated WAN links to the various MS datacenters globally for our users...and those costs add up quick. There's also the problem with internal relay options...internal application integration(CRM type of products) - JB From: KevinM [mailto:kev...@wlkmmas.org] Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2009 5:54 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Is Exchange Doomed?

Re: Send Email From Another Account
If the mailbox-rights have been assigned for user A to have full mailbox rights for userB's mailbox, then from within userA's outlook add UserB's mailbox. Then compose a new mail message and change the FROM field to reflect userB, even though the new message composition is happening in userA's outlook session, the mail will be sent as userB. hope this makes sense.
