Hello

There is a mail enabled user created in Exchange 2003 , I do understand that it not a part of any database hence it can not be moved to Exchange server 2010.

My concern is what will happen to this user after decommissioning Exchange 2003 Server.

please suggest.

block of outgoing mail Exchange 2010sp2

$

Good day!

Task: to set the prohibition of outgoing mail of free mail services (gmail.com, mail.ru, yandex.ru, etc.), some internal users (all is authorized to them) shall get to exceptions and addresses of contractors which have addresses on free mail services shall get to exceptions (the address list of contractors  permanently add).
In "rules of transport" I created the rule. Everything worked perfectly, but in process of adding of addresses encountered internal restriction in Exchange – the summary quantity of characters in the rule is restricted and there is an error message: Length of property is too great. The maximum supported length 8192.
What decisions are to run this task?

Mailbox move log file growth

$

Hi,

I'm planning to move a number of pretty large mailboxes from one Exchange 2010 Server to another in the same site.

We're fairly constrained in terms of log file storage on the source server but have plenty of capacity on the target - I presume that log growth on the target will be large but am keen to understand the impact on the source server. 

I'll configure circular logging on the destination for the duration of the move process.

Appreciate any advice.

Regards,

Simon

Exchange 2010 Archive Mailbox Lost After User Name Change

$

We have a user who had her name changed for marriage.  Her account was renamed in AD and she still has access to her primary mailbox, but it appears that the new user name triggered creation of a new separate archive mailbox with her new name.  The mailbox only contains archive data since her name change and she needs access to the contents of her old archive mailbox with her maiden name.

How is this done?  I don't see any way to view existing archive mailboxes and assign to users.

exchange 2010 send connector with 2 ISP 2 Nics 2 default gateways for failover

Hi experts..

We currently have 1 internet connection (ISP1)

I have an exchange server (cas, hub, mbx role) currently setup with 1 send  connector   smpt   *    cost (1). 

we recently bought another backup connection (ISP2) 

How can I setup  exchange so that if ISP1 goes down Exchange will send mail thru ISP2

exchange is setup with 2 nics

  nic1(ISP1) /ip address  /default gateway 1

  nic2 (ISP2)/ ip address /default gateway 2

I've updated our dns  so that:

  Mail.mycompany.com to point to Nic1 (ISP1)

  mail2.mycompany.com to point to Nic2 (ISP2)

we currently do not have a smarthost.

Postini currently does our spam filtering so the recieve connector are configure to receive from Postini's ip

I can configure another send connector with a different cost but it does not allow me to bind it to a particular nic.

so how does exchange know if Nic1 (ISP1) goes down to send thru Nic2 (ISP2)

thanks for any insight...

Exchange 2010, 2010 + Outlook / OWA - incorrectly processed meeting requests.

Hello.

We have Exchange Server 2010, SP3 UR10. Clients Outlook 2010 connected to Exchange server via native "Exchange" protocol. We have a problem with a appointments/meeting request coming from external customers using Lotus Notes 9.

Appointments/meeting request come from such clients as HTML email with an ics attachment. When you open attachments calendar event are created, but it is necessary that Outlook correctly handle such letters and recognize them as an invitation to a meeting.

This behavior only when the Outlook 2010 connected to Exchange server via native "Exchange" protocol or using OWA. Example of such email:

But when clients connets to Exchange server via IMAP protocol such emails are shown in right view - as appointments/meeting. Example:

How can i correct behavior of Outlook connected via native "Exchange" protocol?

P.S. Sorry for my bad english. :)


Controlling management of receive connectors

$

I am trying to limit management of a single receive connector on Exchange 2010 SP3.

I created a new role and role group which allow members to manage any receive connector but have been unable to restrict this to a single connector, there are lots of examples for restricting recipients and databases but I coundn’t find anything for connectors.

I have tried creating a management scope and setting it in the role assignment but when I use Set-ReceiveConnector I get the error “Unable to perform the save operation. 'Server\Connector' is not within a valid server write scope.” .

I don’t know if there is a problem with the scope or if this is the right way to restrict access. Could anyone tell me the correct way to do this.

Thanks,

James.

Moving item from Mailbox to Archive changes Created date stamp

$

0

We have recently started looking at the Archive capabilities of our Exchange 2010 Enterprise server (currently atUpdate Rollup 10 for Exchange Server 2010 SP3).  I have only turned on Archiving for a single mailbox, mine, for testing.  I finally have all the Policies and Tags working. But, unfortunately, I found the "ELCAssistantCalendarTaskRetentionEnabled" workaround for the Calendar and Tasks handling after all of my Tasks were archived.

The "unfortunate" part is that the Created date for every Task was changed to the date and time the Tasks were moved to the Archive database.  After more testing I found:

  • This does not affect just Tasks, but all message types... it just revealed itself with Tasks because that's a field I added to the Simple List view
  • This affects the Modified and Created time stamps
  • Moving an Item between a PST archive and an Exchange hosted Mailbox does not change the time stamps
  • Moving an Item from an Exchange hosted archive to an Exchange hosted Mailbox does not change the time stamps
  • Moving an Item from an Exchange hosted Mailbox to an Exchange hosted Archive changes the time stamps

Questions:

  1. Is there a fix for this in 2010?
  2. We will be moving to Exchange 2013 or 2016 within a year.  Is this problem fixed in either version?
  3. Is there a utility that can change the Created and Modified dates to match the Received date?

Thank you


Install an Exchange 2010 SSL certificate without a CSR?

$

Forum Members,

Is it possible to install an SSL certificate from a CA without first generating a CSR or renewal request?

Our IE/IT department was able to obtain a new UCC cert from GoDaddy.com that has all of our "domain.local" information removed from the SANs in the cert.  A previous request was probably used to secure the new cert.  I have the new .crt file and need to install it on our Exchange 2010 server.  What is the method to do this?

Thanks is advance,

Joe

Microsoft Exchange Writer State: [9] Failed Last error: Timed out

$

Hi,

We're running Exchange 2010 SP3 UR4

We're backing up using DELL Compellent Replay Manager.  Works half the time.  Geting "time out" errors on Microsoft Exchange Writer during the rest.

Event log shows event id 2003 and 2007 for ShadowCopy near the 45 seconds to 1 minute mark.  It really looks like it's too busy to finish the job.

Error is recoverable.  No action is taken and next snapshot can succeed.

I watched the server during a snapshot to see if resources are an issue but there was no spike in resources that was obvious to me.

Dell says its a Microsoft VSS issue but our VSS backups using Netbackup have no problem.  They don't overlap, by the way.

Can Microsoft VSS be tweaked if I'm getting a timeout error on Microsoft Exchange Writer?

thanks,

rudif

I'm trying to delete all Calendar items within a date range, from a mailbox. But first I'd like to just make sure my date filter is actually working.

Here is what i HAVE working:

Search-Mailbox ME -SearchQuery "Received:01/01/2010..03/18/2010" -EstimateResultOnly
This works, it gives me a count of all things in my mailbox

Search-Mailbox ME -SearchQuery kind:meetings -EstimateResultOnly
This works, it gives me a count of all Meetings in my Calendar.

I reallly need now to get the date range to work in conjunction with the kind:meetings.

How can I do that?




Missing e-mail after eseuitl repair

Hy all,

This question is Exchange 2010 v14 related (part of SBS 2011) but i can not find Excgange 2010 forum above.

Problem flow as it follows:

Due to low disk space I have migrated Hyper V machine from problematic disk to another, larger disk on the same host (2012 R2). After migration and machine customization in order to start from new location SBS booted normally but I was unable to mount exchange database. It was owe 66 GB.

I did database repair with eseutil, database decreased to 63 GB and due to it I have lost 2 weeks of e-mail for entire organization (35 users) for period 1. october 2015 till 14. october 2015.

I have extracted the original edb file from backup and with some 3rd party utils I have managed to browse database but non of them has ability to export more than 30 e-mail in either .PST files or as messages.

Can someone propose potential solution for extracting those e-mail from database in order to import them to users mailboxes.

Thank you in advance!

Can the default Address list be set in Group Policy?

Looking for a method for administratively setting  the default address list in Outlook. Currently Outlook uses a cached address list (probably for quick access). I would like to set this to point to the list from the email server for all users.

                            This would be equivalent to going to:

                            Outlook 2010
                            1. On the home tab Click on Address Book
                            2. Now click Tools > Options
                            3. Select Custom and move your Preferred Address book to the top
                            4. Also select the drop down list "When opening the address book, show this address list first:" and select you preferred address book.

Patching / Update a 2 Node Exchange 2010 SP3 DAG

$

Hi All,

I am having issues when patching our Exchange servers that are part of a 2 node DAG. 

When patching we run the .\StartDAGMaintenance script on the server > This in turn pauses the Node in the DAG and then we reboot after patching

When the Node goes down the other Node in the DAG also goes down and the DAG becomes broken (even though it is paused). Sometimes this is ok as i can jut start the services again once the servers are up but sometimes i have to completely re configure the DAG from scratch. Is there anything i can do to stop this behaviour?

We have 2 Exchange servers, 1x CAS resides on both and one is Primary used all the time and the 2nd is a DR for failover if anything happens to the Primary. 

This is the error i see on the DAG - 

The Cluster service is shutting down because quorum was lost. This could be due to the loss of network connectivity between some or all nodes in the cluster, or a failover of the witness disk. 
Run the Validate a Configuration wizard to check your network configuration. If the condition persists, check for hardware or software errors related to the network adapter. Also check for failures in any other network components to which the node is connected such as hubs, switches, or bridges.

Is this just because it needs the 3 nodes? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is Outlook 2013/2016 supported with Exchange 2010?

resource room calendar sending tentative meeting request to deleted folder

$
0
0

We have tentative meeting room request for a resource calendar that are being moved from the inbox, takes about 1 second, to the deleted folder.  The delegate who takes care of the meeting request was missing these request because she did not have anything in the inbox of that meeting room account to accept.  It is a second mailbox on her outlook so it shouldn't have anything to do with her personal outlook settings because there are 2 other delegates who are seeing the same thing with that same room mailbox.  Under the 'resource policy' tab I do not have 'forward meeting requests to delegates' checked because we didn't want the request to go to each of the delegates personal mailboxes, just to resource mailbox.  I tested with another room calendar to see if the same thing was happening to it and it is. 

I hope there is a simple fix that I may be overlooking from the resource tabs of these accounts.  I am pretty sure when we first set it up and tested the request were going to the inbox.  I'm not sure when that stopped.

I exported some mailboxes to pst files and then deleted them. Now when I try to remove the export requests, I get this error:

The operation couldn't be performed because the object 'domain.com/OU/Mailbox Name' couldn't be found on 'dc.domain.com'.

I get the same error when I run Get-MailboxExportRequestStatistics.

Anyone know how to delete these export requests?
