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) Other useful links http://www.blackberryforums.com/bes-admin-corner/112250-out-office-oof-corruption-blackberry-bes-exchange-2007-a.html http://www.blackberryforums.com/bes-admin-corner/112250-out-office-oof-corruption-blackberry-bes-exchange-2007-a.html 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.

RE: Exchange 2007 SP 1 and Blackberry Enterprise Server 4.2
This is good to know...and a good argument for us to wait until RIM releases SP5 for BES...no guarantee it will fix your issue, but at least they won't be able to say we are running a version that isn't supported with E2k7,SP1. Our issue with OOF is different, although it does involve Blackberry users. At first they send old OOF messages even though Outlook shows the new message. Some of them were sending an old message and a new message. Starting Outlook with the /cleanrules switch took care of the old message...but now many of our Blackberry users send two OOF messages. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2008 11:18 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Exchange 2007 SP 1 and Blackberry Enterprise Server 4.2 What is the OOF issue?

Re: Exchange 2007 SP 1 and Blackberry Enterprise Server 4.2
This is the official statement from RIM about Exchange 2007 SP1 and BlackBerry 4.1.4 interoperability: http://www.blackberry.com/knowledgecenterpublic/livelink.exe/fetch/2000/8067/645045/1264708/SDR_154989_BlackBerry_Enterprise_Server_for_Microsoft_Exchange_Version_4.1_SP4?nodeid=1396996vernum=0 - Key issue - The BlackBerry(R) Enterprise Server in a Microsoft(R) Exchange 2007 environment might experience issues when generating the RefId for a message. As a result, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server might not be able to identify all messages as unique - Impact - If messages with duplicate RefIds exist in a user's mailbox, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server cannot process them appropriately or synchronize properly. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server might not deliver all messages to a device when it returns into a coverage area. - Probability of occurrence - The probability of occurrence is high. - Monitoring the issue - Monitor the BlackBerry Messaging Agent log file for duplicate RefIds. - Recommendations - Upgrade to BlackBerry Enterprise Server Version 4.1 SP5 once it is available. - Resolution - This issue will be resolved in BlackBerry Enterprise Server Version 4.1 SP5.
