Outlook 2007 free/busy calendar
I have a site with outlook2007 and exchange 2007 running. For the most part everything is running okay since we migrated a couple of months ago but users notice that in the calendar if they invite another user they don't get their free/busy information to see if the invite will conflict. I was thinking that had something to do with the /EWS in IIS but couldn't find anything concrete. Starting to go through event logs now and check for other problems but thought I would run it by the list to see if there is a good place to start. Thanks

OOF for only 2 users
Sent this earlier and it didn't appear to get to the list, so apologies if it is a duplicate. We've got two people that are retiring on July 1. Our president and VP. Both would like to have an automated reply sent to anyone that emails them. The reply would say, xxx has retired, if this is a personal email, xxx can be contacted at x...@homeemail.com. If it is work related, his replacement may be contacted at yyy.company.com. On our exchange 2003 server, we've disabled auto replies to the internet. Any way we can enable that for only those two people?

Re: Forwarding NDR's
I just created an Outlook 2007 rule to forward every email that I get to a coworker. I included an exception that excludes anything that contains the phrase NDR in the subject. I didn't actually have an NDR to get the phrase right, but I could use text from the header, the subject or the body. The key to getting _everything_ is to create a new rule that checks messages when they arrive and then skip Step 1: Select Condition(s) You will get a pop-up informing you that this will apply to every message you receive. -Bill On Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 6:41 PM, Jay Dale jay.d...@3-gig.com wrote: Yeah, I thought about doing that, but it would only forward NDR's to a folder within the mailbox, not to a different mailbox.

RE: Recover deleted items
Deleted message recovery is a server-based feature. If the messages aren't seen in the recoverable list and were deleted within the deleted item retention period of the server, then it would stand to reason they were not deleted as far as the server is concerned - i.e. the deleting from the (apparently corrupt) OST didn't synchronize to the server. So look to see if they might be back where they originally were, or in the deleted items folder. In theory, the messages cannot totally vanish unless they were deleted from the Recover Deleted Items view.

RE: Recover deleted items
My OST is now rebuilt and it's back to being a little flaky about how it works. It seems to cause problems if I rush it too much. Here's what I mean 1) Send a message to self 2) Delete it from the Inbox 3) Do Update Folder on the Inbox 4) Delete if from Deleted Items 5) Do Update Folder on Deleted Items 6) Check recover deleted items If I do the above in rapid succession, the message doesn't show up in recover deleted items and it doesn't matter how long I wait, it's just gone. If I do the above and pause a minute or two after steps 3 and 5, it shows up in recover deleted items. (Update folder is a feature of Office 2010. I don't remember if it was there in previous versions.) I'm guessing the problems with my tests have been just that I've been rushing things too much rather than that the OST was corrupt. Note: when this guy deleted his messages the other day, I had him check recover deleted items and they weren't there. I then had him check for them on a different computer and they weren't there either in the original folder or in recover deleted items. I'm guessing they're just gone but any suggestions are appreciated.

RE: Recover deleted items
First mention I've seen of Outlook 2010. Try the same steps from an earlier version.Send/Receive dropdown list has a this folder sync in earlier versions. Step (3) isn't necessary. I've done similar steps in rapid succession all the time, using OL 2007 and 2003. As for this guy, I'd start to wonder about the reliability or accuracy of the problem reporting. Exchange 2003 is not known to lose messages as you describe without user help or some other unusual factor.

It seems to cause problems if I rush it too much. Here's what I mean 1) Send a message to self 2) Delete it from the Inbox 3) Do Update Folder on the Inbox 4) Delete if from Deleted Items 5) Do Update Folder on Deleted Items 6) Check recover deleted items If I do the above in rapid succession, the message doesn't show up in recover deleted items and it doesn't matter how long I wait, it's just gone. If I do the above and pause a minute or two after steps 3 and 5, it shows up in recover deleted items. (Update folder is a feature of Office 2010. I don't remember if it was there in previous versions.) I'm guessing the problems with my tests have been just that I've been rushing things too much rather than that the OST was corrupt. Note: when this guy deleted his messages the other day, I had him check recover deleted items and they weren't there. I then had him check for them on a different computer and they weren't there either in the original folder or in recover deleted items. I'm guessing they're just gone but any suggestions are appreciated.

If the messages aren't seen in the recoverable list and were deleted within the deleted item retention period of the server, then it would stand to reason they were not deleted as far as the server is concerned - i.e. the deleting from the (apparently corrupt) OST didn't synchronize to the server. So look to see if they might be back where they originally were, or in the deleted items folder. In theory, the messages cannot totally vanish unless they were deleted from the Recover Deleted Items view.

Re: Possibly OT: Unable to reply or forward after Outlook 2010 Upgrade
Oh, that's easy: A named property slot in the Exchange database is consumed (among other reasons) every time an external email comes in with a new header line that Exchange doesn't know about. X-Mailer-LID: 86 List-Unsubscribe: http://x X-Mailer-RecptId: 8562863 X-Mailer-SID: 8660 X-Mailer-Sent-By: 17 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; charset=UTF-8; boundary=x Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Virus-Scanned: Maia Mailguard 1.0.2a X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-0.51 tagged_above=-999 required=5 tests=BAYES_00=-2.599, HTML_MESSAGE=0.001, HTTP_ESCAPED_HOST=0.134, SPF_PASS=-0.001, URIBL_BLACK=1.955 X-Spam-Level: Return-Path: n...@x.com X-OriginalArrivalTime: 23 Jun 2010 19:41:47.0107 (UTC) FILETIME=[1DD2A330:01CB130C] So, for instance, in the snippet of header lines above, if your Exchange server hasn't seen one or more of the 'X-whatever:' or other lines, it'll be added to the database as a new named property. Email clients, servers, etc., add amzing and overwhelming numbers of these optional headers to email. That's where this bloat mainly seems to come from, IME.

Powershell: Clear multivalued property
How do you clear a multi-valued property in Powershell? I've got a bunch of mailboxes that have a setting in the RejectMessagesFromDLMembers property. I'd like to clear that value. I'm finding lots of examples on how to set them, but nothing on how to clear it. Exchange 2007, SP2 Thanks, ...Tim

RE: Recover deleted items
OL 2007 seems to be a little less finicky than 2010. If you do things quickly and leave out step 5 the message does seem to get lost - ie not in original folder, deleted items or recoverable. It may be that this is what our friend did. He isn't exactly a power user. It's certain that he didn't know what he was doing. He deleted a bunch of to-keep mail along with the to-delete stuff. Thanks for all your help. Curt From: Carl Houseman [mailto:c.house...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 10:34 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Recover deleted items First mention I've seen of Outlook 2010. Try the same steps from an earlier version.Send/Receive dropdown list has a this folder sync in earlier versions. Step (3) isn't necessary. I've done similar steps in rapid succession all the time, using OL 2007 and 2003. As for this guy, I'd start to wonder about the reliability or accuracy of the problem reporting. Exchange 2003 is not known to lose messages as you describe without user help or some other unusual factor.

It seems to cause problems if I rush it too much. Here's what I mean 1) Send a message to self 2) Delete it from the Inbox 3) Do Update Folder on the Inbox 4) Delete if from Deleted Items 5) Do Update Folder on Deleted Items 6) Check recover deleted items If I do the above in rapid succession, the message doesn't show up in recover deleted items and it doesn't matter how long I wait, it's just gone. If I do the above and pause a minute or two after steps 3 and 5, it shows up in recover deleted items. (Update folder is a feature of Office 2010. I don't remember if it was there in previous versions.) I'm guessing the problems with my tests have been just that I've been rushing things too much rather than that the OST was corrupt. Note: when this guy deleted his messages the other day, I had him check recover deleted items and they weren't there. I then had him check for them on a different computer and they weren't there either in the original folder or in recover deleted items. I'm guessing they're just gone but any suggestions are appreciated. Curt From: Carl Houseman [mailto:c.house...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 10:02 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Recover deleted items Deleted message recovery is a server-based feature. If the messages aren't seen in the recoverable list and were deleted within the deleted item retention period of the server, then it would stand to reason they were not deleted as far as the server is concerned - i.e. the deleting from the (apparently corrupt) OST didn't synchronize to the server. So look to see if they might be back where they originally were, or in the deleted items folder. In theory, the messages cannot totally vanish unless they were deleted from the Recover Deleted Items view.

I re-enabled and now it says it is going to take 7 hours to rebuild the OST! It looks like that just dropped down to 1 hour. So, are the deleted messages in the original OST? Is there a way of recovering them? I didn't delete it, I just renamed. Thanks for your help.

My understanding is DumpsterAlwaysOn isn't required in this situation. Could it be that deleted messages aren't retained if you are over quota? Any help is appreciated.
