I too find it hard to believe that Gmail would be replacing Exchange in any 
organization that really uses Exchange for more than passing email messages 
back and forth…  Gmail just doesn’t have the same feature set yet…



I use gmail to host my own personal domain and I have a number of friends who 
do too.  The main reason I went with Google is because it was free.  The ads 
aren’t intrusive, so I can deal with them.



I wouldn’t be surprised if my domain and theirs were counted in the 1.75 
million businesses who are using Google apps.. how do they know I’m not a 
business?  So, the number may be accurate as far as Google’s counting on the 
number of group “domains” but it still likely doesn’t provide the whole picture.



I can confirm that Google is offering their service for free to schools.  I 
have a friend who’s an admin at a community college in Michigan that just moved 
all their student’s email accounts over to gmail…  No cost to the college.

I just find it hard to believe that Google will be replacing Exchange at the 
corporate end. While that may be their goal, they’ve been saying that for many 
years. The same holds true for the MS Office “cloud” model.



Where they are making inroads are at a number of public schools, colleges, etc 
that are using Google email brand (but still buying Office). They are replacing 
*Nix mail platforms and Netware. Of the ones I can think of, none of them had 
Exchange. And I’m sure the schools are getting a huge break on it (if not for 
free).



Gmail is great. Not only has it been convenient, but it’s been free. I also 
don’t think that Gmail would be nearly as popular as it is if there was a cost 
to the end user.

This would work fine but I see one potential issue; the user potentially 
doesn't know which address the mail was sent to as it will just show his name 
in the To field. This is overcome with the DL solution. I generally ask the 
user to define which domain they want to be their primary and set it up as 
follows;

User - John Smith jsm...@abc.commailto:jsm...@abc.com
DL - John Smith (XYZ) jsm...@xyz.commailto:jsm...@xyz.com

That way it's easy for the user to say Oh, it says John Smith (XYZ) (the DL

RE: Send from different e-mail address in Outlook

Depends if you want your user to have to switch between Outlook profiles or 
not. I never said my way was the best way but I've done it dozens of times 
without issue.

Create a new message, click over to Options and click on Show From. Once it's 
clicked you should see the From field in all new messages. One thing to 
remember is that leaving the From field blank will default to the mailbox 
address (jsm...@abc.commailto:jsm...@abc.com in the below message) - he'll 
only have to fill it in when selecting the DL as the sender.

This would work fine but I see one potential issue; the user potentially 
doesn't know which address the mail was sent to as it will just show his name 
in the To field. This is overcome with the DL solution. I generally ask the 
user to define which domain they want to be their primary and set it up as 
follows;

User - John Smith jsm...@abc.commailto:jsm...@abc.com
DL - John Smith (XYZ) jsm...@xyz.commailto:jsm...@xyz.com

That way it's easy for the user to say Oh, it says John Smith (XYZ) (the DL 
in this case) in the To field, I should probably respond from that same address 
to avoid confusing people.

That's a creative solution.   I do this:

1. Enable the client PC(s) of the person(s) affected to relay mail through your 
Exchange server.

2. Setup a POP/SMTP account in Outlook, giving it the alternate SMTP address 
and using the Exchange server as the Outgoing and Incoming mail server.   You 
can put anything at all for
username and password in the POP3 setup.

3. Click the More Settings button and type the same E-mail address for the name 
of the mail account.  Save the account settings.

4. Go to Tools / Options / Mail Setup / Send-Receive.  For this POP/SMTP 
account, UN-check receive mail.

Now users can click on the Accounts toolbar button and choose any of the 
POP/SMTP accounts you setup to use as an alternate From address.

Online-defragmentation otherwise provides internal defragmentation without

RE: Finally 2010

2009-04-15 Thread Jeremy Phillips
You kind of lost me. I'm deployed over 300k seats on 2007 at over a hundred 
different organizations. While I've seen a few bugs (literally 3-4) 2007 is 
very stable and while it's slightly more complex than 2003 it's nothing 
particularly difficult to master.

Thanks,

Yeah, but honestly it's not going to be what people want at first. If I 
remember correctly you can't move the archive databases off to different 
storage so you really don't gain much storage wise. It will be nice to have it

IF you are reinstalling Exchange 2003, you can't use Svr 2008, you're

Exchange 2007 as the server hardware will 64bit capable.

Is your current server online and usable?  If so, I'd suggest bring this

Our Exchange hardware has aged to the point where it has caused a
corruption in my mailbox store which prevents a backup with exec backup
from completing. (We upgraded to Exchange 2003 a couple of years ago but
still have Windows 2000 as the OS)

We are in the process of procuring a new server with more storage and
memory. I have a license for Server 2008 or 2003.  I have a good backup
and all the transaction logs since, so if the easiest way to install is
to restore and play the logs I will but I was wondering if there might
be an easier/quicker/safer way to move to the new server.  Also which OS
would be better - we probably will not be upgrading DCs and network
structure to 64 bit soon so Exchange 2007 seems a bit in the future.

I have read a plethora of KBs and other documents and need the voice of
experience to point me in the best way to handle this.

Any help will be appreciated.

Subject: Re: Large Mailboxes Performance

Correct. I'll try to dig up some links (there are KBs out there now on
this; there were originally none).

What matters is the critical path - both for common user operations
and background tasks, Outlook in Online Mode+Exchange will keep a
view of the Inbox,Sent,Calendar and I think one other folder.
Exchange can't keep this view for every mailbox always, so some are
always being overwritten. When Exchange has to re-generate that view,
a large number of total items in it will degrade performance.

Factor in an already overtaxed Exchange server, and the problem can
have a very real client performance impact.

For other folders (including user-created top level folders), the item
count matters for views to be created, but they aren't in the
critical list and won't be created unless needed by a client.

Likewise - Outlook Cached Mode will greatly reduce this impact on the
server, but things like archive products, VSAPI, delegation of folders
are all back to Online mode.

 For clarification, are you suggesting that the count be under 5,000
 for inbox and subfolders, or just the inbox? I am not sure if those
 are calculated together since you can have top level folders outside
 the inbox also

 IIRC, MBS in a post a couple of months ago referred to the Inbox, Sent Items
 and Deleted items as the ones that should be under a certain item count.

I would not do stubs.. If I was going to archive the archive would only be

 You made me go and look, didn't you?  J  I remember Ross Smith talking
 about this at TechEd EMEA and using the 20k figure.



 I wasn't 100% correct.  Turns out that it's the Inbox and Sent Items
 at 20k, but the Contacts and Calendar are still at 5k.  Having said
 this, keeping everything below 5k is always going to be better.

 Do you mean total items in all folders or per folder? It is so hard to
 get a firm answer on Items per folder. The last great written thing by
 Nicole I think was no more than 1,000 items per folder. I know it has
 changed since then. Last I had heard was 10k with the latest stuff.
 Has Matt or Nicole posting something different to the Exchange blog recently?

 It's all about the number of items in the core folders, like Inbox,
 Sent Items, Calendar, etc, and also restricted views.  In Exchange
 2003, the recommendation was to keep the number of items in these
 folders  5,000.  In Exchange 2007, the recommendation is not to
 exceed 20,000 items (as long as you've designed your infrastructure
 correctly)

 I don't think large mailboxes from an Exchange perspective are a
 performance issue.

 The issue mainly lies in Outlook performance and if your users can
 somehow learn to control the items in their folders, the performance will be 
 fine.

 Hey,



 Just curious what type of performance people have had with large
 mailboxes on Exchange 2007. Our company has a strict email retention
 policy that purges email after 30 days, but we have about 200 people
 though that have special circumstances where they need to store email
 long term. We implemented an archiving product from C2C about 1 and ½
 years ago which turned out to be a far less than desirable solution for our 
 users.



 We have fully migrated to Exchange 2007 and are kicking around the
 idea of not having a 3rd

Subject: OWA and ISA

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
We have ISA 2006 in front of Exchange 2003 OWA.  Split DNS but same internal 
and external names.
On the exchange box, our free StartCom certificate expired today.
We have purchased a DigiCert wildcard cert last year for some other stuff and  
as the StartCom is not trusted by many  browsers.
I've had the DigiCert cert on the ISA server for a long time and outside users 
were working fine.
Internal users hitting the OWA directly worked but they got the certificate not 
trusted warning.
Today, I've tried using the new wildcard certificate on the Exchange server.
Now internal users are working normally, no prompt about the certificate not 
being trusted.  Life is good, except.
Outside users can't log in.  The get an error about target principle name 
incorrect.
OWA works fine on the isa server, doesn't complain about the cert and it is 
using the exchange cert.
I've googled and played with the host header settings but nothing seems to make 
a difference.
Thanks.
Glen.

That is what I do not know. From what I have found out is that you are able to 
setup and account on the Blackberry site, but I really think it goes to the 
provider of the phone, and then you setup where you want to get the email from.

What I really do not know is if that is the same as using the Active synch on a 
Windows mobile type phone.

Yes we have a BES server. But users are using the BIS service on the Blackberry

I am wondering if anyone has/knows of a way to block the ability to have users 
use their own Blackberry on a corporate network. I am not trying to keep them 
from using them completely but just to stop them until they sign some form of 
acceptable use policy so that we know who has what.

I have been looking on Blackberries web site for information and from what I 
can tell this might be dependent upon the cell phone carrier they have.

The other option I was thinking about is if they use the Blackberry Internet 
Services can I turn off the ability to synch like we can with Windows Mobile, 
that is inside of the Exchange Administrator MMC

Hi All,

Forgive me if I am not explaining this correctly...

I am currently working in implementing an Exchange 2007 CAS/HT server as
well as an exchange 2007 server as a secondary mailbox server with the
existing Exchange 2003 seerver.

Currently the Exchange 2003 server is setup to have all Logs and DB's on a
SAN.

Before I set up the new exchange 2007 back end server, i want to make sure
that the SAN is setup properly for Exchange.

As of now, there are 2 storage groups with 4 stores in each storage group.

On the SAN, each store is stored in 8 individual Luns that are VRAID 5

the logs are stored seperately for each storage group in their own LUN that
is a VRAID 1

so on my exchange server, i have 8 drives that are for stores, and drives
for logs.

Does this sound like the SAN is implemented correctly for Exchange?

Please advise

Thanks

Travis

Sounds like you have one disk group and you've created several LUNs with
varying Vraid types(1,5) within that Disk Group.  Just remember the
Vraid1 and Vraid5 sets are sharing the same disks within that Disk
Group.  Log writing and DB writing have different write
patterns(sequential vs. random) so placing them on the same set of
spindles could cause head contention.  Best practice is separate
spindles for logs and DB.   Sounds like resources are limited, and
depending on your performance requirements, this could be fine.

Hi



Thank you for your replies.



I have looked up Recipient Policies and read all about them and tried to apply 
a new policy to a couple of test users in a test OU.



I found the users via the LDAP query tool and correctly identified them.  In 
the policy I left the original address unchanged and added the new one as an 
SMTP address so I have 2 SMTP addresses in this policy. However I am still not 
seeing the new address being added to these users when I view them in Active 
Directory Users and computers.



At the moment under Recipient policies I am seeing 3 policies. 2 of them are 
the same apart from the LDAP Query. They are Default with the priority at 
lowest and Checkmate with priority highest which both seem to have been created 
when exchange was first installed and my new policy that has a priority of 1.



Any ideas why my addresses might not be updating?

Have you used it to report on permissions without changing anything?

I've used pfdavadmin, and never known it to do anything you didn't tell it to.

Subject: Looking for non-intrusive pub folders tools for reporting perms

I'm looking for a safe, non-intrusive tool to report permissions on vast public 
folders trees in Exchange 2000/2003 environment. Need to pinpoint subfolder(s) 
that are blocking operations that users appear to have perms to do.

Anyone used pfadmin or pfdavadmin?

Has to be absolutely safe, else I won't be allowed to use it (very cautious 
here).

TIA

Subject: Display address issue

On our domain, I'll call it aaa.com, we also host mail for bbb.com, a
related but distinct domain.  Most of my users who are in company
bbb.com, also have an additional address at aaa.com (partly for business
continuity purposes), but their bbb.com addy is the primary.

Now at one office, [EMAIL PROTECTED] sends mail out through us, and when sent
to another user on my Exchange box, her address shows as [EMAIL PROTECTED],
so far so good.

But when she sends to an outside address, like gmail, yahoo or anything
else not on my server, her display address shows as [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I've
been thorugh her configuration on her Outlook, and everywhere her
address is listed there is bbb.com.  I've even deleted her extra address
at aaa.com, and her mail still shows up at an outside address as
aaa.com, although then when you reply, the reply will bounce because
that address no longer exists.  It almost seems like it must be
something on her end of the connection.

I've ensured that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is her primary address in her mailbox
account.  I'm trying to figure out what causes this issue, and how to
resolve it.  Appreciate any help.

Thanks,

David

RE: Exchange w/ two different Windows domains

2008-04-04 Thread Jeremy Phillips
No, mailboxes are tied to user accounts in Exchange. They don't have to login 
to the domain though. If you set them up with RPC over HTTPS, they will just 
have to enter their abc.local password when they open Outlook.

Subject: Exchange w/ two different Windows domains


I have two different Windows domains, abc.local and xyz.local, and abc.local 
has Exchange SBS 2003 on it. xyz.local has NO Exchange in it's Windows domain 
at all.

There is a two-way domain trust between the two domains.

The e-mail xyz.local is already received in the abc.local Exchange server. I 
would like to Exchange-enable the users in xyz.local so they can login with 
their accounts and get e-mail from abc.local.

Can this be done WITHOUTcreating an abc.local account for the user, and having 
them log in to that domain, thus having two accounts?

RE: Blackberries or Windows CE phones

2008-04-02 Thread Jeremy Phillips
If you want the least headaches possible, then run Windows Mobile with 
ActiveSync, which should work fine with Exchange 2003. Blackberry does, in 
fact, require another server.

Subject: Blackberries or Windows CE phones

Hi,

 We currently have a SBS 2003 server running Exchange
2003. We are planning to migrate to Exchange 2007,
however, I don't have a timeline for that migration
yet.

 In the meantime, I've been asked about phones and the
costs for making them to work with our current
Exchange server.

 My assumption is that Blackberries require a
Blackberry server and apart of the cost, could be a
headache.

 My guess is that Windows CE is probably better suited
to work together with Exchange. Do We need something
special to make it to run?

 Any other recommendations? I want as less headaches
as possible :)

 Thanks,

 Miguel
