Re: Exchange 2007 SP 1 and Blackberry Enterprise Server 4.2

What is the OOF issue? 
  
The Out of Office (OOF) can be enabled by a user from 3 different locations 
(Outlook client, OWA or the Blackberry device).  In an Exchange 2007/Outlook 
2007 setting, you can also specify whether the OOF will be internal only or 
external only” or both.  In an Exchange 2007/Outlook 2003 setting, the only 
option is to enable OOF for all messages. The OOF will be sent once per 
incoming email from a sender (in other words, multiple emails originating from 
same sender don't get multiple OOFs). 
  
Now, we have tested these scenarios 
  
1.  User on an Exchange 2003 SP2 server with no Blackberry - No OOF issues 
2.  User on an Exchange 2003 SP2 server with BB on a BES 4.1.4 - No OOF 
issues 
3.  User on an Exchange 2007 SP1 server with no Blackberry - No OOF issues 
4.  User on an Exchange 2007 SP1 server with a Blackberry device - OOF 
issues. 
  
In option 4, irrespective of where we set the OOF (from a client Outlook 
2003/any SP version or Outlook 2007 /RTM or SP1 OR Blackberry device OR 2007 
OWA), the behavior is same.  The OOFs go out for around 20 minutes or so and 
then totally stops.  
It does not matter what OOF setting we have in the e2k7/o2k7 combination 
(External only /internal and external or just internal)

Symptoms 
Note: While this looks very similar to this on the Ehlo blog 
(http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/04/04/437544.aspx 
http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/04/04/437544.aspx ), it is not the 
same issue 
  
Steps we have taken so far (has not resolved the issue) 
1.  We have moved the BES service account to a Exchange 2007 mailbox 
server. 
2.  Installed the latest CDO files on the BES server

I wasn't too bad once you take care of all of the prerequisites. You have to 
get it in your head that you will be running two separate mail systems at the 
same time while doing the migration so you actually get the benefit of being 
able to tweak the 2007 system before getting any mailboxes on it. The MS 
documentation does a pretty good job but you will need to have a rudimentary 
grasp of PowerShell to do some things. I created a dummy account on the 03

Re: Ridiculous customer requirement...

2008-01-24 Thread sriram3
Can't you just email enable a public folder and have all the users check that?  
 Assign send as to the pf so users can send as the generic email.  

This way users have both their email as well as attend to emails in the public 
folder ( can have subfolders in pf called incoming, completed etc) if you want.

All, 
I have a customer that is requiring me to configure email in this ridiculous

All users can send email to internal and external recipients. 
The “Reply To” address for most users must be [EMAIL PROTECTED] when sent to 
external recipients. 
All incoming mail addressed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
How do I configure Exchange/ADUC settings to make this happen? There is no

Re: Blackberry question

2007-12-26 Thread sriram3
In a large financial organization like the one I work for, we have around 9000 
blackberry devices. No windows mobile or EAS since the Security folks won't 
approve it. (Can't block SMS, 3rd party messaging, etc) 

 While I love Exchange as a mail server, the EAS solution is still immature (we 
have tested even e2k7 sp1).  It also needs a enterprise CAL (so EAS is not 
really free).

Subject: Blackberry question


We currently use Windows Mobile devices, connecting directly to our Exchange 
server.  Unfortunately, the Moto Q phones we purchased for our new Executive 
Director, and Assistant Director, have had charging issues, as in they wouldn’t 
take a charge when plugged in.  It is possible, also, that the Director has no 
clue how to charge his phone, but I hope that scenario is unlikely. 
  
Anyway, I guess at his previous employment, they used Blackberry devices, and 
he’s starting to question why we don’t use Blackberry here.  I explained to him 
that in an enterprise situation, we would need to have a separate server for 
Blackberry, and we would also need to purchase the server software.  Also, no 
one in IT has had experience managing this type of solution, so there would be 
a learning curve for us.  He also asked the same type of questions of another 
IT guy, so I think he’s going to be going to our manager and pushing to 
implement a Blackberry solution.  Which finally brings me to my question here. 
  
I’ve looked at the Blackberry website, and I see two versions of the BES 
software.  The Express, and the regular.  What’s the difference between the 
two?  If I only have a handful of users, would it be better to get the Express
