Subject: SP2 RU3
I install SP2 RU3 for exchange 2010 this weekend it seemed to finish
successfully, but the version still shows 14.2 (build 247.5)
Looks like I should see a build number of 14.2.309.2 for RU3
So what happened to the RU, did it not install correctly?

Re: Blocking Facebook from Syncing with Exchange.
Hiya, Unless you plan to use some sort of Mobile Device Management solution, you don't have many options available I'm afraid. An MDM solution could allow you to either keep the company info in a secure container, or manage the device itself. The former sounds most applicable to your situation, so Good for Enterprise might be a good start. However if your company is small enough to use SBS I would suggest your initial option may be to make it clear to users that syncing contacts via ActiveSync is unacceptable for the stated reasons. This may be a case of asking them to go to the settings for mail and de selecting Contacts. Bear in mind Twitter, LinkedIn, FourSquare and other apps also allow the user to upload contacts in the same way as Facebook.

RE: Blocking Facebook from Syncing with Exchange.
I'm a bit confused on this conversation... The subject is Blocking Facebook from Syncing with Exchange.. Synching a device via ActiveSync doesn't pull the GAL from Exchange into the Contacts on the phone, does it? You can do GAL look-ups but, I didn't think it actually copied each one to the device.

There's also my vCheck for Exchange plugins based on Alan Renouf's vCheck, my
own scripts, Steve's script and others.

I'd advise people to use version 2.1beta4 (not yet uploaded to Alan's site):

RE: Blocking Facebook from Syncing with Exchange.
Since Facebook is pulling the data from the phone itself, that is where the issue lies. So unless the FB app supported some type of policy that could be applied to a phone Well then your only choices are: As mentioned before. If you have an MDM solution, you could block people from being able to sync their phones with Exchange if they have the FB app installed. Inform the users about what could happen and tell them how to turn off contact syncing on the FB apps. Of course this would probably only apply to the official FB apps. Unfortunately, there are a plethora of different ways to sync with FB through built in manufacturer sync options and third party apps...

Unfortunately, there are a plethora of different ways to sync with FB through built in manufacturer sync options and third party apps… Could become an issue of keeping up with all the new apps and options as they are released. Also the other services that were mentioned as well.

Synching a device via ActiveSync doesn’t pull the GAL from Exchange into the Contacts on the phone, does it? You can do GAL look-ups but, I didn’t think it actually copied each one to the device.

Hiya, Unless you plan to use some sort of Mobile Device Management solution, you don't have many options available I'm afraid. An MDM solution could allow you to either keep the company info in a secure container, or manage the device itself. The former sounds most applicable to your situation, so Good for Enterprise might be a good start. However if your company is small enough to use SBS I would suggest your initial option may be to make it clear to users that syncing contacts via ActiveSync is unacceptable for the stated reasons. This may be a case of asking them to go to the settings for mail and de selecting Contacts. Bear in mind Twitter, LinkedIn, FourSquare and other apps also allow the user to upload contacts in the same way as Facebook.

We have a lot of our users accessing their Outlook email using their personal smart phones. We have recently discovered that if they are also using the mobile version of Facebook it will sync all of their Outlook contacts with their Facebook contacts. This is not exceptable to the company for some obvious reasons. The only thing I have found is using Outlook Social Connector but from reading the walk through I'm not sure it will do what we need it to do. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Re: SP2 RU3
I've not used Phil's script myself but heard good things! If you have a virtual
environment and use vCheck it's (according to one of my customers) a very
useful addition.
And given this is the second time in two weeks it's been mentioned i'd better
check it out myself :-)

There’s also my vCheck for Exchange plugins based on Alan Renouf’s vCheck, my
own scripts, Steve’s script and others.

I’d advise people to use version 2.1beta4 (not yet uploaded to Alan’s site):

To make it easy to select plugins, use my Select-Plugins script for vCheck:

Subject: SP2 RU3
I install SP2 RU3 for exchange 2010 this weekend it seemed to finish
successfully, but the version still shows 14.2 (build 247.5)
Looks like I should see a build number of 14.2.309.2 for RU3
So what happened to the RU, did it not install correctly?

RE: Exchange 2010 Transport Rules Not Working
Never run in a mixed 2003/2007/2010 environment, but I've seen them work in a mixed 2007/2010 environment. From: Stu Packett [mailto:spack...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, June 22, 2012 5:09 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2010 Transport Rules Not Working I've setup a basic Exchange 2010 transport rule, but it's not working. I'm testing for an Exchange 2010 mailbox. I suspect it's not working because I'm in a mixed environment with 2003, 2007, and 2010. Could someone confirm if the 2010 HT rules will not work until I'm native Exchange 2010?
