RE: Too Many MAPI Connections
Are you using Cisco VPN for this? I remember something about an issue with Cisco VPN and outlook. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:mich...@smithcons.com] Sent: Monday, May 02, 2011 9:50 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Too Many MAPI Connections I spent a few minutes hunting for a reference on this (a Microsoft reference I mean) and I can't locate it but I've seen this with both F5 and Cisco load balancers before. Generally, you increase the NAT or TCP session lifetime on your firewall or LB, not the TCP Keepalive on the Exchange servers themselves. I'm not 100% sure that your NW Engineer understands what TCP Keepalive is. J http://tldp.org/HOWTO/TCP-Keepalive-HOWTO/overview.html Too many MAPI connections instead generally means that a single account has too many active MAPI connections. This is generally because a prior connection (or multiple prior connections) were ignored and a new connection was created, or because of a program bug. NAT being torn down too quickly would lead directly to this issue. Regards, Michael B. Smith Consultant and Exchange MVP http://TheEssentialExchange.com From: Jim Holmgren [mailto:jholmg...@xlhealth.com] Sent: Monday, May 02, 2011 9:27 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Too Many MAPI Connections Good morning everyone, Our office in Bangalore connects via VPN tunnel back to our Exchange 2003 environment. Recently a number of users have been having difficulty connecting to their mailboxes (Outlook 2007 client). Upon investigation, we are seeing too many MAPI connections - so it appears that MAPI connections are not being closed correctly. We have checked for the presence of desktop search programs, having seen that cause similar issues in the past. We have disabled all of the desktop search engines, yet the issue continues. We have also recreated their MAPI profiles with no success. Our Exchange 2010 upgrade is entering UAT, so we are inching closer to migrating away from 2003, but I can't rush it. :) One of my network engineers is suggesting that we change the TCP KeepAlive timeout on the Exchange servers based on some research he has done online. Recommended value is 300,000 (5 minutes), and the default time for Exchange is 7,200,000 (2 hours). Looking for some thoughts - will changing this timeout cause any additional issues within Exchange? We could also increase the max number of MAPI connections, but I'm hesitant to do either change - I would rather find the root cause, but the issue is getting fairly hot and I need to get some relief even if only temporary.

RE: Drop Unity for Exchange 2007/2010 UM?
Do you have the Cisco Call Center IPCC (UCCX) ? Just wondering how exchange 2010 plays with it. jb From: Senter, John [mailto:john.sen...@etrade.com] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2010 4:44 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Drop Unity for Exchange 2007/2010 UM? We actually did a POC of Exchange 2010 to Unity. Currently we have Unity setup in a standalone forest so it is completely separate from our Exchange side. Management is wanting to integrate VM into the users mailbox so we have Unified Messaging. Me as the AD/Exchange guy I did not like the idea of installing Unity in our primary domain because it requires a lot of elevated rights that would then be available to our telecom guys, via the Unity management console. So I opened my mouth and suggested looking at Exchange 2010. We currently have Exchange 2007, but that lacks the MWI (message waiting indicator) interface unless you use a 3rd party. So we setup a lab with Unity and Exchange 2010 and I configured the same options that we are using on Unity. The only thing I could not get on the Exchange side was a voice mail box that had no greeting, Exchange requires some kind of recording. We did the side by side comparison with management and they like the idea of going to Exch 2010. The integration into Outlook, accessing contacts and calendar items, and the VM preview we key things they liked. Going with Exch 2010 also allowed me to keep the telecom team from having elevated rights in the domain. We will UM enable a user in the same process as creating the user. So now I am starting a project to upgrade our Exchange environment to 2010 from 2007. Still in the design phase.

running exchange 2010 on windows 2008 vs. windows 2008 r2
It looks like ESX 3.5 and vcenter 2.5 don't fully support windows 2008 r2 ( don't see us upgrading our ESX and Vcenter until mid 2010).

If I am reading this correctly, it says any mailenabled object that's: * any mailbox not on any server * any mailbox on IZZYEmail * any contact * any PF, DL or DDL ( ( ( (mailnickname=*) (| ( (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=user) (!(homeMDB=*)) (!(msExchHomeServerName=*)) ) ( (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=user) (msExchHomeServerName=/O=ghsp/OU=Belton/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=I ZZYEMAIL) ) ( (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=contact) ) (objectCategory=group) (objectCategory=publicFolder) (objectCategory=msExchDynamicDistributionList) I think you want something more like: - Any mail enabled object, on IZZYEMAIL that is a mailbox, contact, group, PF or DDL. ((mailnickname=*) (msExchHomeServerName=/O=ghsp/OU=Belton/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=I ZZYEMAIL) (| ((objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user) ) ((objectCategory=person)(objectClass=contact)) (objectCategory=group) (objectCategory=publicFolder) (objectCategory=msExchDynamicDistributionList) ) ) To shorten that a bit more, since you're hitting all mail enabled objects on the server: ((mailnickname=*) (msExchHomeServerName=/O=ghsp/OU=Belton/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=I ZZYEMAIL)) will do approx. the same thing.

New Recipient policies don't apply
I created a new recipient policy for our Exchange 2003 org Its the second policy the first is pointing to a different exchange server than the one I'm working on. I setup the ldap query for only this server. the policy is to add an additional smtp address and set it as the default, still leaving all existing smtp addresses. This exchange server is in a subdomain of the forest and using a different DNS name space. I've read through many MS KB and a few blog post related to this. IT doesn't work for new users or for existing users. I ran the exchange BPA and nothing of interested came back. I'm going to increase logging levels, just not sure which domain or exchange server to do it on.

RE: New Recipient policies don't apply
The 1 priority has a ldap query to apply to a total different exchange server. But I've been fighting this all day so I'll try anything :-) I'll bump it upto PR 1 Just to add more detail Current PR 1 lets call it policy widget A is applying to exchange server A The current PR 2 call it policy widget B is applying to exchange server B = is the one I'm trying to get to apply for all users on server B These servers are in the same exchange org, same AD forest just different AD domains. jb From: Alex Fontana [mailto:afontana...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, June 08, 2009 2:56 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: New Recipient policies don't apply AFAIK, the recipient policies are not cumulative, so if one is applied it will not continue to the next.

A properly configured VM running on a properly configured ESX server (can't speak for Hyper-V) and properly sized should see no noticeable performance hit. Just as in the physical world you gotta make sure you understand your current environment and size accordingly, with emphasize on storage and memory. There are at least a couple of whitepapers on Exchange 2007 performance on ESX; HP and maybe Dell.
