RE: Strange mail address issue

2012-11-07 Thread Bruckner, Ian 
The PrimarySmtpAddress won't necessarily flip back automatically. You could try 
the following... including resetting the alias if that also has the #2. 
Depending on your address policies, you might only need to run:
Set-Mailbox -Identity JSmith  -alias JSmith

If that doesn't do it, try:
Set-Mailbox -Identity JSmith  -alias JSmith -PrimarySmtpAddress 
jsm...@xyz.com

Well, I'm sure Ian is brilliant, but that ends up not being the current issue.  
I know there was a Mail Contact for this user before they were migrated over.  
That Mail Contact may have even existed when the actual mailbox was created.  
But it's not there now, and I don't get response from the Get-Contact command.  
All that gives is an error saying the object can't be found.

Ian, you're brilliant!

It has to be the Contact.  This user has just recently been migrated to 
Exchange and prior to that, someone had setup a Contact, pointing to his 
Groupwise account.  Thanks a ton!

..or at least another 'something' with that in use as an SMTP address.

Running...
Get-Mailbox -Identity *Jsmith*
Get-Contact -Identity *Jsmith*
...might show you.

I have a user, JSmith.  He's the only JSmith in my organization.  However, 
looking in EMC at his mailbox settings, his default SMTP address is JSmith2.  
So, obviously, Exchange thinks there's another JSmith somewhere, but I can't 
see it.  Anyone have a tip on discovering the other JSmith?

RE: Exchange 2010 User Mailboxes and AutoAccept

2012-11-08 Thread Bruckner, Ian 
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2009/02/26/3407028.aspx

I think the main thing to understand is the difference between user mailboxes 
and resource (room & equipment) mailboxes. While both types are Exchange 
mailboxes, they have very different options available to them regarding 
calendaring. Outlook clients do not play into this at all, I think we might be 
using different terminology.

Regarding shared mailboxes... I've seen shared mailboxes called both user & 
resource mailboxes in differing circumstances. I think when it comes to 
calendaring, though, you should consider them as a user mailbox and not a 
resource. It would be best to operate under the assumption that there are 
actually 3 types of mailboxes: user, resource (room & equipment), and shared. I 
cannot find a reliable source that also splits out the 3 types as I described , 
but that's definitely what I've found in practice.

Back to calendaring, however... two things can automate calendar usage. See the 
link above for details on the difference between what they do:

1)  Calendar Attendant (User & Resource mailboxes)

2)  Resource Booking Attendant (Only Resource mailboxes)

Other possible pages you might find useful...
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb201680.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124255.aspx

Summary: don't use shared mailboxes for calendaring.

So how do you handle needs such as a place to document a  department's 
out-of-office schedule, birthday, or general events? I call that category 
"Event" Calendars and I behind the scenes I set them as a "Room" calendar so I 
can use the Resource Booking Attendant. This kind of messes up built in outlook 
features and these event calendars will be shown under the heading "Rooms". I 
hope that Microsoft releases an option to allow for this kind of calendar 
natively.

I'd love to hear of a better way to handle event calendars if anyone has one.

Subject: Exchange 2010 User Mailboxes and AutoAccept

I hope I have an easy question for someone.  I am looking for some 
documentation to confirm what I suspect to be true.  Exchange 2010 User mailbox 
types cannot have Automatic Calendar Processing set either by Outlook Client or 
by EMS.

In the tests I have run; setting a mailbox to "automatically accept meeting 
requests and remove canceled meetings" will not work as the meeting request is 
delivered to the inbox and the meeting is set in the calendar as tentative.  
This is the same result as if the Outlook resource scheduling options were not 
applied.

When I look at the shared mailbox resource scheduling via Outlook I do not see 
anything checked however when looking at the properties within the shell I see 
that this shared mailbox is set to AutoAccept.

Get-mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited -RecipientTypeDetails Sharedmailbox | 
Get-CalendarProcessing | Select-Object Identity, AutomateProcessing, 
BookingWindowInDays

Identity  AutomateProcessing   BookingWindowInDays
  --   ---
Domain/OU/2010SharedMailbox   AutoAccept   180

If I try and set a user mailbox to "AutoAccept" I get an error message

Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity ex2k10test -AutomateProcessing AutoAccept
AutoAccept can only be enabled on resource mailboxes.
+ CategoryInfo  : InvalidData: (Domain.com...est Account 
DataBase:ADObjectId) [Set-CalendarProcessing], Re
   sourceOnlyException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : 
A4EB60D3,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.StoreTasks.SetCalendarProcessing

If anyone can point me to documentation confirming what I suspect to be true; 
Resource Scheduling Options for an outlook client do not work on an exchange 
2010 mailbox, I would be grateful.  I would prefer something from Microsoft but 
any reliable source would do.

RE: DynamicDistributionList - -RecipientFilter

2013-01-10 Thread Bruckner, Ian 
You're on the right track from my experience. You'd have to say "members of x 
OU + members of y OU + members of z... OU", because, "All OUs - a OU - b OU" is 
not possible with a msft ldap filter. It's better to key off of another 
attribute, either one already existing, or one you script (and schedule to run 
nightly or whatever you'd like) the addition of.. and that's nice because 
scripts CAN say "All OUs - a OU - b OU".

Subject: DynamicDistributionList - -RecipientFilter

Hello All -

I seem to remember that excluding membership in a DDL by OU is a no- go, am I 
wrong?

I have a customer who has Exchange 2010 and an AD with a complicated structure -
AD
   Continent
Country
Users
Non-Employee
 Country
  Users
 Non-Employee

on & on, ad infinitum

They want a DDL with ALL users, except the ones in the 15 - 20 OUs named 
Non-Employee. I'm thinking something a good bit less dynamic, like 
CustomAttribute.

Anybody an LDAP or OPATH genius? Is there a way to use -RecipientFilter & get 
away with this? I'm pretty sure the answer is no, please let me know what you 
think.

Thanks very much, as always.

Russ

Hello,

I have a question about importing PST files to Exchange Online archive.
I have enabled archive on a user and set a retention policy with a Policy Tag 
to Archive All Other Folders in the mailbox with Age limit retention 731 days.

The online archive is showing up and everything older than 2 years is archived, 
all good.

Now that user has 3 PST's files on her local laptop.
I understand the correct command to import the PSt in the online archive is: 
New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox Johan -FilePath 
\\2010AD02\PST-Files\johan-archive.pst
 -IsArchive

If i do it for the 3 files, will email and email folders be appended into the 
archive or will the folders be overwritten?

RE: Import PST into online archive

2013-02-11 Thread Bruckner, Ian 
Yes, but I'm confused by your mention of 'eventually'

If you use the command:
New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox Johan -FilePath 
\\2010AD02\PST-Files\johan-archive.pst
 -IsArchive -ConflictResolutionOption KeepLatestItem
... it will import the items directly to the folder they belong in, and keep 
the latest one if there is a conflict.

An alternate version is that you don't import directly into the archive by 
removing the '-isarchive' switch and let your rules move the messages for 
you... that, then, would be "eventually".
Another alternate version would be to use the '-TargetRootFolder' parameter to 
create a new folder structure for the items to be imported.

Or maybe by "eventually" you mean that the commandlet just creates a "request" 
and the exchange system will get around to it whenever it feels like it... if 
that's the case, then yes... eventually ;)

Thanks,

Most of our users have online archives that have the same folder structure as 
their archive PST file.

let say
- there is a sub-folder Inbox\Partners in the online archive and the same 
sub-folder in the PST file
- i use the switch  -ConflictResolutionOption KeepLatestItem

The import will eventually import new messages in the sub-folders and in case 
of conflict keep the newest one?
