Outlook 2007 won't quit
I've installed outlook 2007 (as part of Office 2007 Enterprise) on windows XP service pack 2 for two people in the last two days. When I try to close outlook it just won't go away. It works fine otherwise. I can minimize the outlook window, but I can't close or exit. I finally have to kill it through task manager. These are new installs on clean machines (formatted the drive during the install). After the install I did all the latest Microsoft patches through Microsoft update. I have not installed SP3. I've done this install many times before and I've got other people using the same config. It's only these two new installs that fail. I've repaired the pst file and it says it is clean. Any one seen this before? Thanks. Jon ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
RE: Outlook 2007 won't quit (Resolved)
Thank you! That's was the fix. I can now sleep this weekend. -Original Message- From: Tim Vander Kooi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 30, 2008 11:03 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Outlook 2007 won't quit Have you gone through the initial setup for Word or Excel? We have seen this with Outlook and, as dumb as it sounds, setting your initials and such when first opening Word has always fixed the issue for us. I am assuming it is somehow tied to Word being the editor for Outlook now.

RE: Backup Solutions
We've been talking about disaster recovery (e.g., what if our office burns down) and what we need to do to be sure we have offsite backups. We've considered two options: 1) digital vaulting using a service like Vault Logix and 2) putting a backup device in our colo and backing up to that location. I like Vault Logix because it's a simple install on one central PC and it's agentless. It also supports all the different variety of server OS's we have (Windows, Linux, Solaris). Vault Logix uses the Asigra software package which compresses and encrypts before sending it out. We've also looked at EMC which bought Avamar. Their software is similar to Asigra. EMC bundles it with one of their storage systems for a turnkey solution. Each solution is expensive. Vault Logix charges by the GBs stored.

In my situation i am trying to backup 150GB-200GB. Is everyone using tape still or have some made the jump to disk-to-disk? Maybe using an off-site backup like iron mountain? I am curious to here other people's solutions and what their experiences have been or possible recommendations. As always your input is much appreciated.

RE: Your message did not...
I've been doing some more digging. The message actually stalls in the "messages awaiting directory lookup" queue. When I track that message it shows this error: SMTP: Message Scheduled to Retry Categorization. This continues for 24 hours and then the message times out and sends out the error message listed below. If the user sends a new message to the same list it will go through while this message is still retrying. Has anyone found a Microsoft MIB for exchange 2003/2007? Thanks.

RE: Your message did not...
No, we only have one server dedicated to exchange. And this last message that wound up in the queue was for internal people only. -Original Message- From: Dahl, Peter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 11:36 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Your message did not... Do you have multiple outbound SMTP servers?

Helio and Exchange Sync Issue
We've been trying to get a helio phone to sync with our exchange server (exchange 2003 with patches and windows 2000 with patches). It worked once and then helio had the user update the phone for DST. After that it didn't work. We've gone through their tech support and asked Microsoft for help, but no success yet. We only see generic errors in the log; nothing specific to point us somewhere. Anyone else have a helio that works? Thanks.
