Hi Sudhir, Use of a mandatory profile should not matter. I presume you have checked things like otherpolicies at a higher priority and checked that loopback processing, Policy Overrides etcis not confusing the issue. Also check the Event log to see if there are any errors processing

1. The domain name can be disjoint from the Exchange domain names handled. In fact, I have a joeware.local which handles mail for joeware.local, joeware.net, and joeware2.net. It could just as easily be hosting bob.com and steve.com email. 2. Yes it can. But don't go into a new domain

Thanks Joe for your quick and very well explained reply. For question 2, I never wanted to rename the domain regardless if a tool was available or not. That is why I want to go with something more generic. As for question 3, that sort of holds me up and makes my course of action change.

As you know, you don't need Outlook on a server to get SQL mail... google mapi profiles. I find it mildly ironic that at a time that I'm leaning towards the maybe we are insane to put all on one box view that others seem to be wanting to do just that. Tim Vander Kooi wrote: Just about

This has been discussed on Jespers blog, but the main problem is that blocking wmf files doesn't mitigate the risk because simply renaming a file to .jpg or .gif will still cause it to be parsed by the same .dll which will treat it as the file type it really is. -Original Message- From:
