RE: OWA white screen

Completely white (no text), or white on the background?  The second makes me 
think the accessibility option for blind and low vision might be selected.

I have one user who gets a white screen when she tries to log in to OWA 2007. 
The other 140 are behaving normally. Client is Windows 7 and IE 8.

Don't spend any time on this. I just wondered if anyone has seen this before.

Thanks,

You should also think about whether you have any kind of archiving requirements

There are SOOO many questions.

Average mailbox size?  1.75 GB

What will be migrated? Notes mail DB's

The organisation has made the decision to migrate the mail component of the 
Notes/Domino environment to Exchange


What custom applications are required?  - Domino/Notes is used  for many 
customized internal workflow applications - none of these  are candidates for
migration  to Exchange  - They potentially may end up being migrated  to 
Sharepoint

Etc. etc. etc.

Exchange 2010 SP2 UR3
Outlook 2010.
W2K8 R2 SP1 servers and domain

Greetings and WOW, thanks for all the response posts ( I read all ) as this 
certainly seems to be a topic of interest.
Much better specific  info  than what I was finding in Google and technet and 
what everyone is doing seems to be excellent advice.

First question - is it better to set up the DL in the EMC, or in ADCU?
I generally use EMC for any ad hoc Exchange matters like DLs as most of our 
exchange routine processes are automated.
I then check in AD  and ADUC to verify.


I set up a DL in the EMC console under Distribution Groups , and verified the 
DL is in ADUC also.
It shows in ADCU as GROUP SCOPE UNVERSAL and GROUP TYPE DISTRIBUTION so that 
should all be correct.
(thanks for the screen snips about managed by, etc.  - my screens are slightly 
different, but likely due to versions)
I can figure all this out with the proper selections  (or post), and since I am 
only dealing with maybe a dozen DLs, I want to keep simple and can handle some 
micromanagement   if the "responsible user" changes - using KISS methods.
(glad I don't have to deal with 2000 DLs like some of you).

Second question - once I verify all of the above, it is not clear to me how the 
"responsible user" will manage this from the Outlook 2010 client.
I will set myself up as the first manager and test from my outlook client.

If any specifics can be provided, that would be a great help so I can test.

Thanks again for all the great responses as I have learned a lot today.

Greetings,
EXCHANGE 2010 SP2 UR3
Outlook 2010 clients

Please bear with me, as I have not had to deal with this since my Groupwise 
days so my terminology may not be correct regarding Exchange 2010.
When we migrated from Groupwise to Exchange, we "grandfathered in" a small 
number of DLs that my operations group continues to manage through service 
tickets to add and remove users.

Currently we have several requests to create and manage new Distribution Lists 
for specific departments as well as various projects.

My thinking is there should be a way in OUTLOOK 20101 for each requestor to 
create a contact or DL, share this with others, and manage themselves without 
sending in service tickets to my group.
I have done a lot of google on this, but find the terminology is not consistent.

In summary, my goal is to provide documentation to each new re

Yes, it *should*.  Ours doesn't come even close to that, with an almost 6-year

don't have much cached-mode use, so it's very noticeable.

RE: User has to enter pre-Windows 2000 login to Exchange 2010

[Miller Bonnie L .]

I've run into the 20 char limit before, and it was poorly documented at the 
time--I think I asked about it 3 or 4 years ago on ntsysadmin, if you're 
keeping an archive.  Look at the user's account in AD, and on the account tab, 
verify if the two names match for User logon name and user logon name 
(Pre-windows 2000).  If their name is over 20 characters, one gets truncated, 
and causes issues where you basically have two different logon names for the 
user, depending on how the person logs on (via UPN or old-style).

After dealing with it for a little while, the user became frustrated and was 
happier to have us just truncate her entire logon name to 20 chars.

 We have an issue that just cropped up this morning.  User changed password 
yesterday morning, brought up Outlook, worked all day with no problems.  
Shutdown laptop and went home.   Didn't use the laptop until she came in this 
morning.  Logged into our Windows domain fine.  Tried to bring up Outlook and 
was prompted for username and password.  Entered the password several times and 
locked out her account.  We deleted her mail profile and tried to recreate it, 
but was prompted for username and password, and again locked out her account.  
This was using usern...@domain.com as the username.  Finally we tried using 
domain\username with the password and that worked, but it continued to prompt 
for username and password until we checked "remember".   I found a dead-end 
reference on the web that referred to a username over 20 characters, but have 
found nothing yet that explains this.  Thoughts anyone?

get-mailbox -OrganizationalUnit "domain.name/ouname/InactiveAccounts" | 
export-Mailbox -PSTFolderPath C:\PSTs -BadItemLimit 10 -ReportFile 
C:\-MM-DDExportReport.xml

We now have Exchange 2007 SP3 RU10, and I run it from a 32 bit machine with 
Outlook installed as an admin that has full access to the mailboxes.  This 
year, I've updated my tools machine to Win7 (was XP), and I'm getting a crash 
in powershell when trying to run the export.  Digging around in the logs, I 
find the specific error displayed is:

Error was found for User (usern...@domain.name) because: Error occurred in the 
step: Approving object. An unknown error has occurred., error code:
-2147221219

After more digging online and checking all sorts of permissions and elevation 
(not the issue), I ran across this thread, indicating issues after some updates 
to Office 2010.  I tried uninstalling just the updates mentioned, but only 
found two of the three and did not have any luck with it working.  Because it's 
a pretty basic installation (and not my main machine that I use), I removed 
Office 2010 and reinstalled with no fixes, at which point the command runs 
without crashing.

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvradminlegacy/thread/1a979543-c4f8-4504-8870-95612c81b181

So, has anyone run into this and/or know if it's in the works to be fixed?  I'm 
also really looking for the SPECIFIC update causing the problem, as it would be 
nice to patch it up and just roll off the problem one when I need 
export-mailbox.  For now I'm just going to leave the machine off until I can 
run the full export of all the mailboxes on Monday, so it doesn't re-patch 
itself, or figure out how to get infected.

I guess it will all change again soon when we get to 2013 anyway...

Thanks,
Bonnie

RE: what spam or edge server are you using?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

We've got some users with pretty long whitelists from their plugins--I haven't 
seen a limit hit yet, but haven't looked for it either.  A couple of 
issues/limitations we've run into with the barracuda plugin to be aware of:

1)  User can't view their whitelist/blacklist directly from the plugin.  So 
for example, they start getting spam from 
some.address.they.do.not.k...@somewhere.com.  They tag it for spam, but keep 
getting them every day.  I go onto the barracuda and discover it's an address 
they whitelisted at some point in time.  With our industry (Edu), it usually 
turns out to be a teacher or student they had in a previous year but don't need 
any longer, and they don't know or remember that they whitelisted it.

2)  User gets e-mails from a mailing list that appear to be from 
u...@mailing.list.  Real address it comes from will be something like 
super-random-id-changes-each-mess...@some.mail.service.  When they use the 
green button in the Outlook plugin, instead of whitelisting the 
u...@mailing.list address, it whitelists the random one from the mailing 
service.  They end up having to whitelist every day, and get frustrated, not 
knowing they keep adding a different address each time.  The fix is have the 
user to go to the web page to add to the address or domain explicitly to their 
whitelist.

3)  User can't blacklist directly from the plugin at all--they must go to 
the web page.

4)  Barracuda often updates the plugin but doesn't info on it every time in 
the release notes for firmware.  Every time I update firmware, I just download 
it now and compare to the one we're currently running.

And some of it is training--people don't always realize the differences of 
using the green and red buttons, plus attempting to use junk filtering in 
Outlook (which doesn't work for us with very little cached mode set up).

Just to be clear...

The Barracuda addin for Outlook doesn't categorize anything on its own
- the appliance does that.

What the addin does is allow the user to mark emails that get past the 
Barracuda as either ham or spam.

If marked as spam, it sends the email to the deleted items folder, but if it's 
ham it just lets the email sit there.

It then sends the user's choice to the applicance, which then updates the 
Bayesian database.

Given that, I'm pretty sure there's a time limit on marking incoming mail 
(probably to match what's in the web interface), but I haven't tested that to 
confirm..

RE: Blocking "Publish to Office.com"

[Miller Bonnie L .]

I don't see a mention of which version, but with Outlook 2010 we have it set 
using the adm/admx templates for GPO, and I also think you could set it during 
a customized installation.  Once you get the templates and load, look under 
\user configuration\administrative templates\Microsoft Outlook 2010\Outlook 
options\Preferences\Calendar options\Office.com Sharing service

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18968

And if you're controlling general office settings, look under \user 
configuration\administrative templates\Microsoft Office 2010 as well for a few 
more cloud integration options you can restrict.

Subject: OWA question

I've got a user who has all kinds of strangeness with their mailbox.

Typically they use OWA for access.  Recently when they log into outlook web 
app, they  click on the New Message button, nothing happens.  Opening up an 
email to do a reply, the reply window opens, but they can't type into the reply 
window.  This behavior occurs on multiple machines, across multiple browsers.  
Other people can log onto their account using OWA on the same machines and 
browsers with no issues. Which makes me think it is something with the mailbox 
or the user's account?  Looking at their permissions, I don't see anything that 
stands out to why this user might not be able to access OWA properly.

I moved the user's mailbox to see if that would reset something, but it still 
looks to be having the same issue.  The Exchange environment is 2010 sp2 rollup 
6.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Kevin

Ok so I have an Exchange 2007 server, a few months ago it asked for SP3 Update 
Rollup 9 but I had not done Update Rollup 8-v2 yet, since the updates are 
cumulative, I ignored the 8-v2 and assumed it would be taken care of with the 
Rollup 9 but that did not happen it still says it needs 8-v2. And now Rollup 10 
is also available.
So do I ignore 8-vs it and go right to v 10 and hope that 8-v2 goes away? Or do 
I do 8-v2 and then v10 but I have already applied v9.


Any suggestions, Thanks

Can SharePoint directly accept mail, either through direct SMTP input or via

The end game of the question is this, I have a bunch of shared mailboxes in 
Exchange, along with their attendant user accounts. I'm looking to see if it is 
feasible to move these mailboxes into a SharePoint installation and have the 
same functionality as a shared mailbox, without the security risk of an 
additional user level account.

Thanks to you all for providing very timely and accurate technical information

Just an idea, but since the action on AD happens using the computer account of 
the Exchange server (local system), how is the health of that?  Have you

I ran into a similar problem a while back.  Have you looked at the Microsoft 
Exchange System Objects container yet? All of your mail-enabled PFs should be 
accounted for in that OU.   You can do an add/remove columns and choose 
modified date, then sort to see when your last PF was mail-enabled.  The funny 
thing is in my case this container (for whatever reason) was no longer located 
at the top level of the domain where Exchange has been installed.  It was 
within a sub-folder!!  Once I moved the container back to the root level, 
things were back to normal.

Hopefully that helps...

RE: Junk E-mail Settings

[Miller Bonnie L .]

I do think I remember seeing one blocked sender—I’ll have to search that one.  
Again, no cached mode with straight MAPI connections here (except for his 
Mac/Iphone stuff) so it’s not even supposed to be using the junk filtering to 
my knowledge.

Check and see if they have addresses listed in Blocked Senders under Junk Mail 
Options. I'm not sure, but if addys are listed I think they'll get sent to the 
Junk folder even if the Junk mail settings are set to No Automatic Filtering.

Single Exchange 2007 SP3 RU6 server, but also happened at RU5.  I have had a 
report recently that messages (including both external and internal addresses) 
are getting filtered to the Junk folder for one user.  I might have a second 
now and am getting more info.  Working with the first user in particular, I’ve 
been able to log onto his mailbox as admin and see this happening, with 
messages coming in at various odd hours.

We are in transition right now moving from Office 2007 SP2 to Office 2010 SP1, 
non-cached mode on both.  Even though it appears to me that the Outlook 
client-side junk filtering should NOT work in this configuration (and I get the 
warning about it when I change settings), I went ahead and turned off all junk 
filtering on his mailbox via Outlook.

I also verified on our server-side that antispam is all disabled (long 
story—had to install a while back and disable, but that has been working) and 
it is configured exactly as I would expect it to be.

After all this, he is still having the problem, and I JUST discovered that OWA 
apparently has a completely separate set of junk filtering options than 
Outlook.  This morning I went into his mailbox via OWA, went to options, junk 
filtering, and also disabled it there.

He is in watch mode right now, but I’m wondering if there is a way (powershell 
maybe?) to turn off the junk filtering via OWA automatically on all of our user 
mailboxes, as well as whether there is a server-side setting to disable it on 
new mailboxes (or per store maybe).  We have a barracuda appliance that is 
supposed to be taking care of all of this and don’t want it enabled via 
Exchange at this point in time.

He has told me that he has an iphone that syncs his mail (we have activesync 
enabled), as well as some kind of setup on his Mac (I’ll find out more if it 
still isn’t working), and I’m wondering if either of these  have somehow been

RE: Old Mailboxes -- Best way to keep their data?

Do you have any kind of e-mail archiving system?  Many would allow you to

who have been delegated the correct access to search them directly.

We have about 50 disabled user accounts of previous employees, each of them 
with a mailbox -- on Exch 2010 -- no longer in use.

We want to delete these mailboxes after exporting their data with cmdlet like 
New-MailboxExportRequest, but this will create 50 PST files. Is there anyway to 
consolidate this data within an Exchange 2010 database?

In general, are there options better than having multiple PSTs of ex-employees?

RE: I feel like I'm missing something obvious

Probably not, but any chance you've recently upgraded your Barracuda to the 
version 5 series firmware?

Subject: I feel like I'm missing something obvious

Exchange 2003 (zxch), fronted by a Barracuda (mailproxy).

I've got one user (that I know of) who cannot receive email from the outside - 
inside works just fine. The email comes through the Barracuda, hits the 
Exchange box, which generates an NDR. The NDR only specifies the minor ESMTP 
code (5.7.1), but not the major code (500/550/whatever).

I've perused the logs for Exchange, and done the message tracking, and am just 
not seeing what the failure mode is, exactly. The most common use for 5.7.1 
codes is "unable to relay", but the only address attached to this mailbox is 
correct, and I've checked both the rules on the mailbox and the Exchange 
settings on the account and the SMTP logs, and there's no forwarding going on.

It's a bit of a stumper...

Logs and raw mail included below - if someone can look it over andeither see 
what I'm missing or suggest where else to look, I'd appreciate it.

Side note: I looked in the event logs, and noticed a ton of 8206 EXCDO entries 
with code 0x80004005. I'm just about to apply this hotfix:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943721. But, while I don't think it's relevant 
to this issue, I thought I'd mention it just in case.

Product-cycle for Exchange Server?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

We are looking at potentially replacing our Exchange 2007 server next summer as 
the hardware will be going on 5 years at that time.  Should we be looking at  
Exchange 2010, or does anyone know (and can comment on) if there will be 
another Exchange server product out by July of 2012?  This would be a server 
(or servers) that we host internally.

Not finding much by searching-just a link back to the Exchange blog to watch 
for announcements.  We probably won't schedule training until closer to Spring, 
but might extend warranties and put the upgrade off for another 6 months if a 
new product would RTM by December 2012.  There are certainly enough other 
projects to work on!

Thanks,
Bonnie

or actions we would need to take


1)Within Exchange

2)Between Exchange and AD

Here is a brief outline of what we are planning.


1.Shut down services on Exchange 2003

2.Rename/IP 2003 box

3.Turn on services for Exchange 2003

4.Rename/IP 2010 box (Exchange 2010 is not actually installed yet)

5.Install Exchange 2010 (which should recognize 2003, and set up the inter 
link between the two)

6.After mailboxes, etc are all moved over, and everything is running on 
2010, decommission 2003.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be much appreciated,

RE: the Outlook log file is where?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Thanks-that is what I was looking for-getting the log file now, unfortunately, 
it doesn't including the error information in a human readable format.

Well, like I said, I can see why it's failing-I was hoping to capture the error 
information from an end-user's workstation to confirm they are doing what the 
error indicates (trying to move a recurring appointment item on the SP calendar 
to the same as another day that already has one), otherwise it might be 
something else going on (oddities with their SP calendar items, only modified 
by that user).

For now, I've told her that if she needs to make an adjustment to an item that 
is part of a recurring series, to delete that one item and then create a new 
entry.  I don't think there is another way to do this and sync with Outlook 
(for printing).  It seems like with SP, when you edit an individual calendar 
item in a series, it still thinks it is part of a series.  Although Outlook 
also does this, it gives error messages when you try to do the same thing with 
the appointments.

Yes, enable logging; and change the folder view in Win7, too, probably.

1. Under the Tools menu, click Options.

2. On the Other tab, click Advanced Options.

3. Check (enable) or uncheck (disable) the Enable logging (troubleshooting) box.

4. Click OK twice and restart Outlook. Logging Enabled should appear in the

RE: the Outlook log file is where?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Thanks--already looked for that.  I've seen errors there before, but it's 
usually when adding something in OL that won't sync back to SP.  I think 
there's nothing there since the sync error is happening the other way around 
(added in SP but can't go back to OL), hence I was hoping to find the reported 
log file and peruse it's contents.

On the main Outlook window select the Go menu and choose Folder List
Then look for the 'Synch Issues' folder
Typically if there is an error during synch then a message is generated in that 
folder or one of its subfolders with the details regarding the error 
encountered.

RE: Completely Removing Exchange

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Thanks for all the replies-as usual, this list is a resource that it would be 
hard to live without.

He did attempt the uninstall using the CD on his test cluster, but it won't 
complete as it wants to move the resources to another server first.  Thanks to 
some off-list help, he is working out the details to shut off the server and 
remove the objects, and will test it out in his test cluster when more time 
magically appears next week.  I'll try to post back to the list what the steps 
are if we work it all out 8)

Not worried about the schema-that would only be an issue if they ever go back 
to Exchange, and it can be upgraded at that time to whatever the new version 
is.  As long as all the current Exchange-related info is gone, it shouldn't be 
an issue.  Mostly he just doesn't want to mess up their working Google apps 
messaging.

2)  We are planning a migration from Novell to a new Windows AD domain.

3)  The first stage of this migration is moving from Groupwise to Exchange.  
The plan here is to bring up the AD domain just enough to put users in, and 
install Exchange.  The users would use OWA to access their e-mail.

This brought up a concern for me:  how do users change their AD passwords?  
When the accounts are created initially, we put on a temporary password, and 
let the users change it, but can they do that if the only connection they have 
is OWA?

Try deleting the user from the autopick and resending the email. The email 
address should repopulate in the autopick and should be OK after that.

Subject: Intermittent issue with user's nicknames
Hi Guys and Gals

I've got a single user who intermittently has an issue with sending e-mail. He 
sends the e-mail to a user, using the autocompleting function, in Outlook and 
it bounces with a message that the user wasn't found on the org. If he selects 
the user from the GAL it works fine. He is running Outlook 2010 Beta 2 on X64 
Win 7 and the Server is Exchange 2007 SP1 with Rollup 9.

Anyone got any dies

Subject: One email with multiple recipients, stuck in queue

Setup... Exchange 2003, front and backend servers, Outlook 2007 client.

I have a user who sent an email yesterday to one of his own Distribution lists 
within Outlook 2007, about 22 members. In the evening he received "Delivery 
Status Notification (Delay)" notices for each group of recipients within the 
same domain, about 15 different domains, including Hotmail, Gmail, along with 
others.

Looking at the queue, each individual email for each domain is in retry status, 
but won't deliver.   I have tried to force the connection with no results. I 
sent a new email to one of the same domains and it went through fine.  So I'm 
thinking there must be something about this particular email.

Anything particular I should look at, or should I just delete the messages and 
ask him to send again?

Thanks,
Robert

RE: E-mails to junk folder

[Miller Bonnie L .]

So, I did have to restart the server one more time after disabling everything.  
That actually makes sense since the changes are at the Org level.

After that, some of the messages I have that were going to junk are now going 
to the inbox.  I've checked with a few other people and they are getting the 
same results as well with other messages.

I still wish I knew what triggered it.  I've looked back through my notebooks 
and the SCL level was set to 4 way back in July of 2007.  It's almost like it 
has never really worked right and then all of a sudden it started filtering 
after the updates or the reboot from the updates.  Prior to that, the server 
was last rebooted with January updates.

Thanks for all the help!

-Bonnie

FW: E-mails to junk folder

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Well, I'm really at my wit's end here.  SOMETHING has changed to cause the junk 
filtering in our environment to become extremely aggressive, but since I 
haven't changed any server configuration related to this since our E2k7 rollout 
in July of 2007, I am at a loss as to explain it.  The only thing I know for 
sure is that I installed the latest MS security patches late last week, and 
starting on Tuesday people are getting massive amounts of e-mails to their junk 
folders.  One person reported messages from Thursday and Friday sent there, but 
I did not see it, so I still can't pinpoint the trigger.

It was just a few tech folks at first, but now I've found out our helpdesk has 
been getting calls on and off all week about people missing messages.  I 
already changed the SCLJunkThreshold to 8 and restarted the server.  I've also 
run the install-AntispamAgents.ps1 that Michael suggested.  After poking around 
some more, I found there is a new tab near my receive connectors under \Server 
Configuration\Hub Transport called "Anti-Spam".  In there, I've added IP 
addresses of our internal (non-exchange) servers to the IP allow list, and 
after that those messages are no longer being filtered as spam.

But, we still have tons of messages coming in from the outside that are getting 
thrown into junk folders.  These are e-mail addresses that people have been 
getting things from for months, if not years, and it has never filtered to junk 
before.

At this point, I really want to just shut off junk filtering at Exchange 
altogether-we have a spam gateway for this and it has worked well-it's what 
people are used to, and two layers is a lot for everyone to understand.  Is 
there a way to do that?  Still E2k7 SP1 RU9.

Those tabs only show up in the EMC if you've run install-AntispamAgents.ps1 in 
$exscripts which causes the relevant DLLs to get registered.

Last weekend I migrated from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2007. There are no
issues concerning mail flow or access. My Outlook 200/2003 client needed to
be manually reconfigured. My Outlook 2007 client found the new server and
automatically reconfigured themselves.

The server has a SSL certificate from VeriSign for active sync and OWA. The
certificate is for the .com name of the Exchange 2007 server.
We are having an issue with the Outlook 2007 clients only.

I removed the self signed cert that was setup with exchange 2007.

Every time outlook 2007 is open my users on the LAN are getting a
certificate error if they click yes, it pops twice. If they hit yes both
time outlook functions normally.

Any ideas? 


Thanks!

Exchange 2007 Journaling

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Exchange 2007 SP1 RU9, all roles.  Journaling at each mailbox database level 
(no special transport rules) is activated to work with an archiving appliance, 
intending to retain all messages.  The journaling mailbox for each database is 
contained within the same database so as to keep SIS.  Journaling is activated 
on Day X, with anything before that day not added to or otherwise imported into 
the archive (we know that forwarding/replying, etc, will add a message).

Does anyone know or have documentation on whether a journaling mailbox in this 
configuration captures any of the following messages?


1)  Messages sent to and from the same person (ie, from me to me)

2)  Calendar invitation requests/replies

3)  Mailbox messages when a mailbox is migrated to another mailbox store.  
Both stores involved each have their own journaling account.  (Would messages 
prior to Day X become archived?)

4)  Mailbox messages exported to a pst.

I'm not seeing the first two of these at the appliance and I'm not sure if it's 
an Exchange function or part of their system.  Still have to test the last two.

Thanks,
-Bonnie

Microsoft Exchange Server

Have a user that is getting this error when they try to open a distribution 
list they created a last February which is within their contacts in their 
Server mailbox.  Client is Outlook 2007 SP2 non-cached mode, server is Exchange 
2007 SP1 RU9, all roles.

Found this for Exchange 2003:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894530

and we can open the DL in OWA.  I used category view in Outlook to discover the 
DL is 29kb, which is almost double the size allowed.

So, I'm thinking of telling this person they need to use OWA to break the list 
up into at least three separate groups of names.  But, to prevent this from 
happening in the future, can I add the same reg entry that is listed in the 
above Exchange 2003 article to prevent the problem from re-occurring?  I'm not 
seeing a 2007 version of this KB, so my thought is the reg entry might just 
need to be created?

RE: Missing Sent Items

Assuming you've already tried deleted item recovery, if that is an option?  Did 
you try resetting views?  Also, search the entire mailbox for items sent from 
that user to make sure they didn't get dragged somewhere else by accident.

Hi everyone, have an issue that was noticed back at the end of November that I 
still haven't been able to resolve.  Hoping y'all can help.

I have a user, who is missing their sent items from 10/16 - 11/25.  All their 
other emails are there.  User does not use OST or PST files.

We are an Exchange 2007 / Outlook 2007 shop.  I have rebooted the client and 
server several times since, with no effect.

No other users are known to be affected.  Have checked here and there.

Thoughts?  Pointers?

Here's a weird one for you.  (Outlook 2003, Exchange 2007)

I have at least two users with the same Outlook rule. They are both members of 
a group called "Data Processing". The rule says to move all emails sent to Data 
Processing to the Data Processing folder. The rule has an exception that all 
emails that contain "wrightimg" (our domain) in the from address should not be 
moved. Therefor all emails to Data Processing from outside our company should 
be moved. The rules have worked fine for a long time.

Now, we have a new CSR that is sending to Data Processing. Her email is a 
"wrightimg" address. Nonetheless, her messages are being moved, even though 
they are on the exception list.

Potentially relevant things:

This the first new CSR sending to "Data Processing" since we switched from 
"wbgppm.com" to "wrightimg.com". Both addresses are assigned to the Data 
Processing group

This is the first new CSR since we moved to Exchange 2007 from Exchange 2000, 
last year.

Ideas?

Sounds like the users where phished and from what I've heard, this is very
common at edu's.  You might want to check out installing something like 
Untangle which has an anti-phishing filter  in 
front of your mail server(s).

If you're motivated enough to install a Linux based mail gateway you may
be 
able to use this nifty scanning software called Kochi which actually tries
to authenticate to your AD:


I guess there's some client based tools too to stem the flow of passwords

Has anyone had this happen, other than the user deleting the file?

On Friday, our primary FSMO role holder DC was uninstalled (roles properly 
migrated off, good dcpromo) and then the server was rebuilt for our 
virtualization project.  The old server was then reinstalled as a VM and is up 
and running today.

On our single Exchange 2007 SP1 UR7 server (all roles), we are getting this 
error message and are unable to update any SMTP addresses in Exchange:

Googling seems to hit the Leap year bug, which this obviously isn't.  E-mail is 
otherwise functioning correctly and I can't restart the server until tomorrow

Anything I can do or try before then to get this working, or am I stuck until

RE: Can't update addresses...

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Yes, I found an event (below) on Friday when the first person tried to update 
an address and it failed, which led me to the suspected DC issue.  This was a 
planned migration, so we were just going to wait until the DC was back up to 
try again, but it has been up since Saturday now.  This DC was rebuilt with 
same name and IP-I know that won't matter if Exchange tied to a SID somewhere 
of course.  Oh, and all DCs are GCs in our Forest.

The event thrown was:

Close, but not strictly true.

Both the CLI and the GUI create a RunSpace which parses and executes the 
commands. The CLI does more than just the RunSpace - it handles the ConsoleHost 
and handles all the UI stuff which isn't needed for the programmatic 
interfaces. That's why they were split.

all for a strong CLI, but from a usability standpoint it seems to make more 
sense to let the user choose whether they want to use a GUI or a CLI for 
certain functions, rather than to force them to use the CLI.

are setup in the format \\Server1\Staff$\Fbloggs  I can browse to my home

to the Staff$ Share and then browse other peoples home directories.

Is there anyway I can lock down the home Drives to individual users through OWA 
direct file access??

RE: Is this a valid character to use for e-mail?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Great info Ben--The listserv software is not the most recent version, and we 
are looking into what it would take to update.  I'll have to dig to see what 
this version and the latest one supports for literal non-ASCII.

The original address was something like:
imnotfindinganÿth...@my.domain

and it displays in the listserv software as both that (on one screen) and as 

"imnotfindingan th...@my.domain

on both another screen and in the message headers when it tries to send.  
Sounds a bit like your description of using equals, question marks, etc, when 
it doesn't understand what to do.

  Maybe.

  RFC-822 (1982), the original Internet email standard, says ASCII only.

  RFC-2822 (2001), the update to RFC-822, reinforces this.  ASCII only.

  RFC-2047 (1996), part of MIME, provides a method for encoding
non-ASCII characters into ASCII-only in headers.  So non-ASCII
characters like that can be encoded into several ASCII characters.
Such characters should work in any mail system, because they're just
plain old ASCII.  Software which isn't aware of RFC-2047 will display
gobbledygook fully of question-mark (?) and equal-sign (=) characters,
but should be okay.  Software which is aware of RFC-2047 should decode
and give you the original funny character.

  There are a series of IETF documents which deal with extensions to
permit native encoding and transport of non-ASCII characters in
headers.  They're still in the "Experimental" or "Draft" stage.  I'm
not familiar with them, but I believe they include a mechanism for
MTAs to downgrade the payload to ASCII-only, so as to not screw-up
systems which are unaware of these newer protocols.  Google "email
address internationalization" (EAI) if you want to read about this.

  You'll note a common theme in the above is backwards compatibility.
The IETF goes to great lengths to make sure newer systems can
gracefully degrade to be compatible with old ones.  If that listserv
does not report itself as capable of accepting literal non-ASCII
characters, then it should not be receiving any, and thus your funny
character should not matter.  So either (1) the listserv is reporting
capabilities it does not actually support, or (2) something else is
handing off non-ASCII data when it should not.

  A lot of mail software doesn't check input very well, and will allow
you to do things like enter non-ASCII characters, and then attempt to
pass them around without doing all the proper protocol first.  So that
could be an issue -- when the protocol violation hits something that
does check input, the message gets bounced.

  I have no idea where Exchange/Outlook fall into this mess.

  Given the experimental nature of EAI, I would avoid using it for
important email addresses at this time.  It's too likely to cause
trouble.

Is this:

Ÿ

A valid character to use in the left-hand portion of an e-mail address?  My 
google-fu is not working well for this…

For example:  imnotfindinganÿth...@my.domain

Might be the e-mail address in question.  I have no idea how the character was 
originally entered—I’ve been cutting and pasting in notepad.

We have some third-party listserv software that is choking on this and I’m 
trying to figure out if it’s valid.

RE: Is this a valid character to use for e-mail?

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Thanks All--knowing the escape sequence helps, and it looks like the answer is 
that it is generally not accepted.  I'm not able to register that character in 
a name at the free e-mail service in question, and I’m also not able to add it 
directly on our listserv with the current management tools.

We have an interface that was programmed in-house that passes some data across, 
and I think that's where it got in at--off to have a chat...

I am guessing it resolved because I added the email addresses in manually.

The reason why I know it isn't getting stamped by the RUS is because I left it

Then I created all the addresses manually, then it started resolving.

RE: OWA 2007 change password when expired

Yep-ours works and has for each version since Exchange 2000 (we're on 2007

1)  User should put domain\username in the username field.

2)  If you see "Realm", leave it blank.

3)  Do not use the "Reset" button-this is an IIS form button and not for

For those who allow password changes in OWA, can you tell me if it works for

try to log in to OWA with an account where the password is expired, OWA just 
gives an incorrect password error.

Anyone know what the problem is? The article goes on to talk about creating 
virtual directories, which I'm loathe to do unless it will fix this specific 
issue.

Besides the other suggestions, one thing I find a lot when the e-mail always 
arrives "the next day" is that they've accidentally modified their view.  In 
particular, they have collapsed the - sign next to "Today" (so it shows as a + 
instead) and simply don't see the messages until they roll into the "Yesterday" 
group.

If you can't get to their screen, tell them to click the "View" menu and choose

 Just thought I'd stir up the pot on the Exchange on VMware discussion again.  
One of my projects for this year is to migrate to Exchange 07 from 03.  We 
currently have about 600 mailboxes residing on a single server, single site.  I 
purchased a Dell 2850 for this earlier this year.  I also installed VMWare ESX 
3.5 earlier this year with a couple of Dell 2850's.  Now I'm thinking about 
using the server I have for Exchange, making it another VMware server and then 
installing Exchange 07 on VMware.  I'm just looking for your thoughts (wisdom) 
from those that have been using it that way on how it is working out.  Also, 
that way would it make sense to break out a separate vm for hub transport?  We 
also have a BES server that I could put on the same vnic to limit that traffic. 
 We do have an enterprise agreement with Microsoft as I know that is always 
brought up regarding support.

RE: Removing ADC from E2k3 org

If I'm understanding correctly, since the PR_PF_PROXY does not exist, it is 
instead looking for a matching legacyExchangeDN attribute (based on the last 
paragraph in the "cause" section).

Method 1 step 5 assumes you have a valid legacyExchangeDN, but it sounds like 
that might also be missing on your folders OR could be set on the wrong object 
in AD.  What I'm not sure of is on what object in AD (where) you need to set it

RE: Strange OWA redirection

[Miller Bonnie L .]

We've seen something like this (an old IP sticking around) when changing 
addresses with IIS before.  A couple of places I can think to check on the 
server that had the previous IP-

IIS Admin, properties of the website, web site tab.  Make sure the IP address 
has not been assigned directly to the old IP at some point.  Click the 
"advanced" button to confirm it does not show up.

Control Panel, Network, properties of the NIC, TCPIP properties, advanced, IP 
Settings tab.  Make sure the second IP does not still show up here, and remove 
it if it does.

I have, and I didn't find either. What has me puzzled is that a "mere" Refresh 
solves this issue every time.

Have you checked for DNS issues or hard coded IP on the default web site for 
your OWA FE server

Subject: Strange OWA redirection

Hello people,

My problem is with Exchange 2003 on Windows 2003.

Whenever someone attempts to access my OWA for the first time (per session), 
the connection is being redirected to an internal (non-routable) IP. Hitting 
Refresh on the browser opens OWA correctly, and the problem does not occur 
again until the user begins a new session (logs off or reboots their PC).

The IP is the internal IP that the Exchange box was assigned in an earlier 
deployment, prior to OWA being made available. The Exchange box has a new IP 
and everything seems to be functioning normally, except for this OWA issue.

On the first attempt to connect to OWA, the user is prompted to authenticate 
and after succesfully doing so, both OWA frames are loaded but their respective 
content isn't displayed. Rather, the generic "web page could not be found" is 
shown. Looking at what each frame does, they are both attempting to load their 
respective page, but they use the old internal IP for Exchange rather than the 
FQDN.

If the user hits Refresh, the content of each frame is loaded using the FQDN 
and OWA will function as expected right up until the user logs off or reboots 
their PC. Afterwards, the first attempt to use OWA will again fail, etc...

I have combed the registry to see if I could find any entry that would somehow 
point to the old Exchange's internal IP, to no avail.

This issue started when one box was performing all Exchange functions. I now 
have front-end and back-end boxes, but the problem hasn't changed.

Any suggestion ?

Eric

RE: Dynamic Distribution Groups in Exchange 2007

[Miller Bonnie L .]

Interesting... I had not noticed this yet as I haven't been using query-based 
dgs.  Looks like you have to use powershell and EMS--check out

There is no longer a "Customize Filter" radio button in the Exchange 2007 tools.

Sorry, that is what I meant.  Is there a different way to do this?

Subject: Dynamic Distribution Groups in Exchange 2007

Using the Exchange 2003 tools through ADUC, I was able to easily create a 
distribution group that simply contained all users on a specific server (or 
database, or whatever).

Using the Exchange 2007 management tools, it appears that the only filter I can 
really apply is by OU in AD, and then further by State, Department, Company, or 
Custom Attribute.  Not by Server or Database.

Is there something I am missing here?  Perhaps a powershell command?  Or should 
I just continue to use the 2003 ADUC tools to create these dynamic distribution 
groups?

Thanks much

Mike

RE: Not Able to take backup

Yuk, yes, -1018 is a bad one and is usually a hardware issue, like bad memory, 
system cache, or a hard drive problem.
