Re: Added dig cert to our E2010 CAS server, all mailflow stopped
You shouldn't have to do this if you just upgrade the HT cert but you may need to redo your edge subscription. In Ex2k7 sp1 you only needed to do that if you updated the cert on the edge but it may not be the same for e14. I'd have to test in my lab but it may be quicker for you to just redo the sub.

RE: Power Shell/Exchange Management Shell 2007 Book - Learn start to finish
I wouldn't say that there is one. Ilse's book (which was otherwise recommended) is good - but it's not a basic PowerShell introduction. And while I recommend it too - it's got some holes in it (notably, it doesn't cover the *-ExchangeCertificate cmdlets). But it's a good book. You should also look at Active Directory Cookbook, 3rd Edition by Laura Hunter and Active Directory, 4th Edition by Brian Desmond. They both have sections on PowerShell and Exchange (obligatory comment: I tech-reviewed them, so I'm a little biased). For in-depth PowerShell, I'm recommending PowerShell in Action, 2nd Edition (Payette), but it isn't a basic text. For introductory stuff, probably PowerShell TFM (Jones/Hicks). Regards, Michael B.

The challenging thing about Payette, is EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE can matter.

Re: Added dig cert to our E2010 CAS server, all mailflow stopped
This was a strange one - called MS support; it turned out to be an old connector (which had been functioning for over a year.) At first, it had been to allow traffic from our Ironport appliances into the org, then we retired the Ironports added an Edge server. For a while, we had both the Ironport IPs and the IP of the Edge in the Network tab of a Receive connector in the Receive mail from remote servers that have these IP addresses box. We deleted the connector, since those were the only 3 IPs in there, and restarted Transport all around. TheQueue from the Edge server to all our Hub servers emptied. The MS tech could see this was needed by doing telnet in both directions - after issuing an ehlo, a different list of verbs was listed in the SMTP session going one way as compared to the other. The thing we really don't have an answer for is - why did it work for weeks (after we turned off the Ironports) until this morning when I added the digital cert on the 2010 CAS server? The mail stopped within seconds of assigning the SMTP service to the new cert. All's well that ends well, I guess. Thanks everyone for their assistance!

Re: Added dig cert to our E2010 CAS server, all mailflow stopped
I misspoke - we didn't telnet back forth between two servers, we telnetted from the Edge to the Hub, and then on the hub we telnetted to localhost, and saw different SMTP verbs after ehlo. That was the clue that we had a non-Exchange-authentication-friendly connection happening. (We saw the Exchange autrh verbs on telnet localhost, but not from Edge to hub.) Sorry for the confusion - it's been one of those days.

iPhone
I have a user who deleted all of his contacts on the Exchange Server. However he still has them on his iPhone. Not being an iPhone user I'm having some difficulties trying to figure out how to get them back. From what I can tell, in his iPhone Contacts he has two groups. One called Contacts that has the ones from the exchange server in it. The other is called All From My PC. This one has the contacts that have been deleted. How can he copy the contacts from All From My PC to the Exchange server? Thanks for your help. Curt Finley
Re: Added dig cert to our E2010 CAS server, all mailflow stopped
we did look at logs and sniff the network. what we saw was that the Edge would connect to the HT, exchange syn, syn-ack, ack, ehlo, blah, quit. prior to now, ET was delivering to HT via a connector that we had created. the same connector that the Ironports had used. Logs confirm this. I surmise that when the E2k10 server came into play, it forced the Edge Subscription to use Exchange Authentication. Which was evident on looking at the edge-internal recv connector. I *know* that that connector previously had no auth. Ironports wouldn't have handled it... so, ... i think that when the 2k10 server talked to the edge, it forced Exchange Auth, which we were not configured for on the more specific, manually created connector. supposition here. would love to have validation. b thoughts? reasonable theory?
