Disclaimers

[Dennis Melahn]

These were all the rage 5 years ago but I see them less and less these days.  
Still a necessary evil?  Anyone still using them?  

Thanks,
Dennis

Anyone know of any tools for indexing and searching a shared folder with 100+ 
large PST files?  

Thanks,
Dennis

RE: Anybody heard of these guys?

[Dennis Melahn]

I'm currently shopping for an IP solution. ShoreTel may be the way I go 
eventually but I have a local fellow trying to sell me Asterisk PBX on Linux. 
Asterisk also sells every flavor of digium telephony interface card to connect 
your home grown PBX server to the public switched network.

RE: what is your maximum message size in exchange 2007

[Dennis Melahn]

We use Globalscape Secure FTP Server with the HTTP/S option. It works ok for 
the price.  Once your ftp admins understand how to set permission within it's 
virtual file system then life becomes much better.

For those that are using an FTP solution for large file transfers, what
are you using? I am interested in an easy to use web based setup and any
details would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin

I don't have a ton of bandwidth and/or storage.  Based on all the feedback I 
think I'll bump it to 20 MB for now and let mailbox size limits handle those 
who choose to abuse.  

Thanks,
Dennis

Unknowns in the queue

[Dennis Melahn]

Since we moved to Exch2007 last month I have noticed these in the queue. Can 
anyone tell me if this is spam generated from an infected machine or if it's an 
NDR or what?  Thanks, Dennis

Outlook Anywhere - yes or no?

[Dennis Melahn]

We just upgraded to Exch07 recently and I've had a few managers question my 
descision not to set this up. My primary reason/s was training users and techs 
on setting up and using another method of connectivity. We already have Citrix, 
Cisco VPN and OWA. Remote users almost always require connection to core apps 
as well as Outlook so they would need to use one of these other methods of 
connectivity anyway. Is adding Outlook Anywhere to the mix just going to 
confuse my remote users (primarily salespeople) and make more work for my dept? 
 What are the Pros and Cons here?  
Thanks,
Dennis

And yes, I am familiar with the accessing calendars by typing in the URL but

accessing shared calendars in OWA 2007

[Dennis Melahn]

Anyone know of a way to access shared user calendars in OWA 2007?  I know you 
can see one day availablilty from the GAL but was hoping to be able to see more 
detail.  Can this be done with a SharePoint view or a 3rd party add-in?

Thanks,

max number of search folders

[Dennis Melahn]

Sorry guys, google fu is failing me today. 

Is there a maximum number of Search Folders allowed in Outlook 2007, cached 
mode? If not, where can the limit be modified?

monitor outbound mail

[Dennis Melahn]

I was just asked to provide a manager with a copy of every outbound email 
(discretely) from this one user. I used to use Exclaimer for that but don't 
have that software any longer. Is there any way I can do that for free with 
just Exch2003 sp2?  

Thanks,

Exch2007 in ESX

[Dennis Melahn]

Anyone virtualized Exchange 2007? I'm getting mixed opinions. My Dell server 
guys are saying performance would suffer too much.  I also have a local 
integrator who is a VMware and MS Gold Partner and says they virtualize 
everything and that because my information store is only about 25GB for approx 
150 boxes I wouldn't have performance problems.  Thoughts?

Thanks,

re: Blackberry question

[Dennis Melahn]

If you need to get 1 BB for 1 person who HAS to have a BB then I suggest you 
get a BB from Verizon Wireless. They include their own free BB service in their 
unlimited data plan, so you don't need BES in-house. You have 30 days for the 
user to descide if it's a good solution. You can send it back anytime in the 
first 30 days.  

We did this as a test when the Treo 650s started dying and we were looking for 
a replacement candidate.  Since then we have purchased BES and are moving 
Goodlink users to BB as the Treos die off.
