Using Exchange 5.5 with outlook 97. More of an outlook question here. Some people create hyperlinks to documents on our file server and then send the links out via email. Most users can click on this link and open the file (the file can be excel, word, etc). However, there are a few users who cannot. I have checked for differences and all file associations and don't see why they cannot open these links. Any ideas? List Charter and FAQ at: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/exchange_list_charter.htm

RE: Exchange/Outlook Resolution problem
I'm not helping, you guys raised stamp prices again -Original Message- From: Steve Balen [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, July 02, 2002 3:11 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject:Exchange/Outlook Resolution problem Here is one that will stump even the best of you (although I kind of hope it doesn't). Here is our situation - we have a development 2000 domain with an exchange 2000 server in it, basically all for testing and staging build tests. We are trying to test a blackberry server build from start to finish. One of the things blackberry depends on is using an outlook profile to attach to exchange. The only problem is - we cannot resolve any user we create in AD and generate an email address for. The email address gets generated, it propagates and all is good. However, when trying to attach to that profile (resolve it from the outlook client) it says it cannot resolve. 1) It appears the servers are talking to the GC's. 2) We are able to ping the NetBIOS name. 3) Even directly on the exchange server with a client installed, it gets the same error 4) The first exchange server has been ripped out and reinstalled many times already (my theory is this is the problem) What I am asking is if anyone ever heard of such a problem and what you guys suggest.

Exchange dilemma
Interesting dilemma here and the answer may be obvious but my brain is locked. We have a user who's mail is being forwarded to another mailbox outside of our network. His messages then automatically go to his deleted items folder. Since these messages are unread, when purging his deleted items, everyone who has their mail set up for a read receipt gets a message back that their mail was deleted without being read. These users are feeling neglected and like red headed step children. How can I best resolve this issue?

Yes a month has flown by already. So on the topic of defragmentations, exchange does this nightly because it is awesome. Got that part. Now if I have 2GB of free space after this nightly process takes place, that is all white space that exchange uses before the priv.edb would grow larger? Is this an accurate statement or way off?

RE: Clustering
Yep, that's pretty much the thought here Ken. They use (over use in my opinion) email for everything and are afraid of not having it. Clustering sounds good but for us not an option...two reasons, I believe you need the enterprise version (for exchange 5.5) and you need decent hardware. In our case that would mean $$$ and they never want to spend $$$ until something breaks. -Original Message- From: Richardson, Kendall (UNISYS) [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 13, 2002 4:34 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Clustering I have a similar concern at my agency that Bill seems to have.

RE: Exchange 5.5 sending out netbios packets
Holy crap! This machine is a DC running AD, IIS, Exchange and Proxy? Does anything ever move through this server? -Original Message- From: Steve Jacobson [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 10, 2002 9:15 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject:Exchange 5.5 sending out netbios packets I have a dual homed server that I am using as a gateway from a small local area network to the internet. One NIC card goes to the internal LAN (the intranet) , the other connects to the internet via a DSL connection. The server runs Win2K Server (SP2) , Proxy 2.0 (updated), and Exchange 5.5 (SP4), DNS, AD and IIS . It also is the domain controller for the network (I know --I know. It saves a machine). The machine hosts the DNS servers for several domains that are being hosted. The packet filters are turned on in Proxy, and only a minimal number of ports are open. All the latest MS security patches are on the machine. There are no other domain controllers on the network. Anyway, what is happening is that I am getting packet rejects from port 137 (the Netbios port) coming from the intranet NIC. A sample of the packet filter log entries are: 6/6/2002, 1:49:00, 192.168.1.10, 211.109.2.104, Udp, 137, 137, -, 0, 209.42.32.73, -, -, 6/6/2002, 1:49:01, 192.168.1.10, 211.109.2.104, Udp, 137, 137, -, 0, 209.42.32.73, -, -, 6/6/2002, 2:11:27, 192.168.1.10, 211.254.60.122, Udp, 137, 137, -, 0, 209.42.32.73, -, -, 6/6/2002, 2:11:28, 192.168.1.10, 211.254.60.122, Udp, 137, 137, -, 0, 209.42.32.73, -, -, 6/6/2002, 2:30:59, 192.168.1.10, 203.240.154.143, Udp, 137, 137, -, 0, 209.42.32.73, -, -, 192.168.1.10 is the IP address of the intranet NIC, and 209.42.32.73 is the IP address of the internet NIC. The address 209.42.32.73 is visible from the internet and is the primary dns server for the domains I am hosting. I believe that these packets are coming out of Exchange 5.5. The TO: address points to Korean spam sites. I get a lot of spam sent to non-existent mailboxes on my domains, and these end up as NDRs, and so I think these packets are the results of this. I would like to stop them from being sent, but don't have a clue as to where to begin. The MS knowledge base isn't any use. Does anyone out there know what is going on, and how to stop it? Or even point me to a place to get started. Other that this, the server runs fine.

RE: For Kevin Miller
Jeez, there just is such extreme bias out there. Why can't people just be objective and look at things the way they really are? Instead we enjoy lumping a group of people together, then stereotyping. Suffice it to say, there are MCSE's who know less than non-MCSE's and MCSE's that know more. It all depends on who you get. If you do your job interviewing the candidate, shouldn't even be an issue. To say that all MCSE's don't know $hit is asinine.
