I have a user who is trying to send emails to his wife who is not in our organization.  Emails he sends to her from his computer do not get delivered, but emails he sends from his corporate phone do get delivered.  The phone is connected to our Exchange Server via Active Sync. 

User has Windows 7 on his PC running Outlook 2010 and our server side is running Exchange 2010 SP2 RU4 on Windows Server 2008 R2.  Any ideas why this behavior is occurring?

Hi,

I have a standard configuration with 2 servers. 1 windows 2003 with exchange 2003, 1 windows 2008 r2 with exchange 2010 (both DCs, the win2k3 will be decomissioned soon). Everything has been transferred regarding exchange. Autodiscover works fine, test-outlookweb services all good. From any outlook, when I test email auto configuration, everything is fine also. Address list upgraded, gal also, etc...

Before uninstalling the exchange 2003, I stopped the services just to make sure there is no problem. When I do this, I have a couple of users (about 3 out of 20) that are having the authentication popup related to autodiscover. They put their password, the popup dissapeares but comes back later.

Some problem users have office 2007, some office 2010. So of course I don't want to uninstall exchange 2003 now, since for now it resolves my problem.

Anyone has an idea?

Thanks

Greetings,

This topic comes up from time to time and I have not discovered a specific topic to the one I am about to ask.

I have Exchange 2010 SP2 STD currently installed.  The Journaling mailbox was setup on its own MB-DB.  I have accumilated about 6GB in a year.

We have a lengthy retention requirement: 7-10 Years.

From what I have gathered - The mailbox can grow very large, and we'll be able to maintain our retention requirement.  We have no size restrictions on the mailbox.  Data storage is avilable for growth too.

I am a bit concerned with the numer of inbox items this will create. Archiving really doesn't work as we may need to search all of the message to perform eDiscovery; and it seems Archive message bodies are not searched in archives?

I have thought about logging into the Journal mailbox once a year and moving those messages to an Inbox folder - named for that year.

Does anyone see a problem with doing this?  Is there a better way?  Have I missed Something?

Thank you,

Thanks in advance

Configuration:

Two Multi Roled servers running Exchange 2010 SP3 on Server 2012 Standard setup in a DAG

Issue:

Some of my users started to receive Undeliverable messages with the error: #550 4.4.7 QUEUE.Expired; message expired ##

I looked at the Hub Transport queues and noticed ~20 messages stuck in the each Submission queue. The Last Error for every message was:

"A storage transient failure has occurred during content conversion."

I did some research online and found some other users experiencing the same issue, as mentioned in the articles below:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrsecuremessaging/thread/97bd4631-cce8-446c-811a-1a552511360d/

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrsecuremessaging/thread/76f4b8b5-7cfe-41c1-a3ef-47aa036612a6/

From what I can tell this issue only affects email messages sent as RichText (Containing Winmail.dat). I tested this theory by composing a new message from my corporate email account within Outlook 2013, formatting the message as RichText and sending it to my personal Yahoo account. I looked at both Submission queues and found my message stuck in one of the queues.

To add to this - I have two additional Multi Roled Exchange 2010 SP2 servers setup in a DAG running on Server 2008 R2 (Migrating away from these). Messages that are formatted at RichText that get processed by these two Hub Transport servers have no problem sending out. The messages do not get stuck in the Submission queue on these two servers. If I send four consecutive email messages formatted as Rich Text, messages that get processed by the 2008 R2 Hub Transport servers get sent while messages that get processed by the 2012 Hub Transport servers get stuck in the Submission queue.

Some users online have noted this issue in Exchange 2013 and some have even mentioned it being fixed with Exchange 2013 CU1. But I have not been able to find a fix for this issue for Exchange 2010 SP3. Is this a known bug? Is there an undocumented hotfix by Microsoft?

I'm posting this question here because I'm not totally sure that this is only client related due to the fact that more then just one person is seeing this issue.

I'm having an issue for almost every person it appears that the search feature is not seeing anything past 2 weeks of email. We recently had to restore the Exchange 2010 mailbox db's from backups. Due to disk failure corrupting all databases. If the user is in cache mode in Outlook the searching is not an issue, but, if they are not in cache mode or using the OWA feature searching for email older than when the backup was restored is not possible.

I've been searching on line for an answer as to why but I'm not finding anything close to what we are experiencing.

Has anyone seen this before?

Any and all help/insight is always appreciated.

We are running Exchange 2010 and have been for about 1.5 years now. I have had some users come to me recently mentioning their calendars aren't syncing properly on their iPhone (a couple Android users too). On 3 of the 4 accounts that I ran through the connectivity analyzer failed with similar errors,

The test of the FolderSync command failed.
 An HTTP 403 forbidden response was received. The response appears to have come from IIS7. Body of the response: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

I couldnt find any big differences between the 4 accounts. The weird thing is, email and contacts sync just fine and generally dont have any issues. I have spent some time sifting through forums and I have found nothing that seems to give a reason why this happens or how to fix it. I have seen workarounds that involve removing the account from the phone and then re-adding it.

Any help will be appreciated. 

Thanks

Out of office assistant gives error when connecting saying 'can't connect to server'.

Have already: 

1.  Repaired account in OUtlook.

2.  checked SSL settings - client certificates in Exchange

3.  Tested Autodiscover

4.  Other users with same Outlook version are working fine.

All of these, check out fine.

Any ideas? 

Hello!

I have installed Rollup 1 Update on my MS Exchange 2010 SP2 server: now I have several error messages in Event Log and all the sent mails in "Poison Queue".

No problem with received mails: OWA works perfectly.

Several errors:

I recently started a migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 SP3.  Exchange 2010 is running on Windows Server 2012.  Everything is working as usual except Exchange 2010 users cannot see Exchange 2003 users' FREE\BUSY info.  Exchange 2010 users also cannot download the OAB.  I ran Test-OutlookWebServices and here are the results:

Additional info:

The 2010 server is using a Wildcard cert (*.mydomain.com)

The external name used by the Exchange users is exchange.mydomain.com.  This name still resolves to the 2003 on the internal DNS, so I expect the 404 errors onhttps://exchange.mydomain.com queries.

I've done dozens of 2003 to 2010 migrations, never had a problem with web services.  This is the first Exchange 2010 installation to use Server 2012, but I have done a proof of concept lab with Server 2012 and there were no problems.

I have searched on the specific errors "existing connection was forcibly closed" and "unexpected error on send" and the resolutions offered come down to two things:

Is AutoDiscover configured properly? - Yes, I believe so.  Clients can connect to the server without a problem.

Here is the autodiscover virtual directory config:

The second resolution is to patch dotNet Framework 1.1.

OWA works, clients can get to their Outlook profile using autodiscover.  Clients cannot access the availability service nor can they download the OAB. 

At this point I'm hoping someone can point out the simple thing I've overlooked.

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Ive re-run Setup /PrepareALLDomains on the CAS/HT/MB server as well and checked the "Inherit Permissions" box in ADUC on the Excahange objects. 

The accoutn I'm using is an Eneterprise Admin and the account used to install Exchange 2010.

Any new ideas would be nice.

Hello,

I am trying to understand how exchange 2010 autodiscover service works. I will appreciate if someone can help me in understanding following scanerios

My domain is example.com and exchange server (all roles+autodiscover service/xml file) are on webmail.example.com. 

1) I created user's mailbox on exchange server and now starting configuring user outlook 2010. After installation, i started outlook (i am assuming user pc is joined to 
domain and i am configuring outlook from within my network). I clicked next on "Add an email account" 
On next page i.e. "Auto Account Setup" all the information is autofilled. Was autodiscover used in this scanerio? 
2) Exact same scanerio as above except now i have the machine outside of my network and i am configuring outlook for the first time. 
Will the "Auto account setup" be filled itself again? Will autodiscover service be used? 

3) Now assume that outlook client is configured and i am outside of my network. When i start my outlook now, will outlook tries to connect autodiscover.example.com or 
webmail.example.com? I have tried capturing wirehsark packets number of times but looks like it everytime follows the following ( i am assuming no dns entries in cache of pc) 
1) outlook queries for webmail.example.com 
2) outlook established SSL session with webmail.example.com 
3) Bunch of https over rpc calls 

I tried checking my dns cache but did not find any entries for autodiscover.example.com and wireshark captures also dont show any dns queries or connection establishments 
with autodiscover.example.com 

Now if i run the "Test Email Autoconfiguration" wizard, i clearly see http requests made for autodiscover.xml file. 
Is outlook behavior different from when running "Test Email AutoConfiguration" wizard or am i missing something? 

Thanks

I'm trying to install the PST Capture Console (PSTCapture.msi) on a new server.

When I get to the screen to provide the service account however I run into a snag; it always tells me "the account DOMAIN\USER does not have administrator rights on the local computer, or the credentials are incorrect."

I've tried a couple of different accounts here (including a brand new account I created) and made sure each of them was explicitly in the Administrators group on the server where I'm running the installer. 

The first server I tried this on was a new clean Windows 2008 R2 SP1, and I've also tried it on a newly built 2012 server. 

I have also tried running the install by doing "msiexec /i pstcapture.msi" from an elevated command prompt with the same result. Doing the above with /l*v to get a log didn't reveal anything illuminating either.

Hi

We are using Exchange 2010 SP3 and doing the migration. We found a very typical issue wuth OWA and IE 10 that the OWA (https://mail.mydomain.com) is re-directing tohttps://mail.mydomain.com/exchange very frequently than the expectedhttps://mail.mydomain.com/owa. This issue is happening only with IE 10, with all other browsers including IE 9 / Firefox / Google chrome it's working fine. Does anyone face same kind of issues?

Hi guys,

We're trying to move mailboxes from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 SP2 cross-forest. The infrastructure (trust, required accounts on both forests etc) is in place.

When attempting to migrate a mailbox, we run the Prepare-MoveRequest.ps1 cmdlet and perform the New-MoveRequest ps1 cmdlet but our mailbox move fails for our mailboxes.

Strange thing is, we have created new Test mailboxes in Exchange 2003 and these migrate over successfully to Exchange 2010.

Symptoms:

When migrating, the MMC (Move Request tab) is showing this migration job as 25% complete, but the Log itself has already errored out. Also in the firewall between 2003 and 2010 forests we can see the traffic has stopped...

Below is the Log:

Sorry to have pasted the whole log, but it's better to get a feel of the steps taken from start to end.

We have also tried with exporting the data from one of the mailboxes and importing to a fresh new test mailbox and that also fails.

I've also increased the BadItemLimit to 100 but that hasn't helped.

Thanks

Dear All

I have problem in my environment.

i can't access the web-mail and the outlook not working when i connect via wire to network, but when i connect through wireless i can access the web-mail and outlook.

This problem for some users not all users.

Regards

I have installed the PDF iFilter for Exchange 2010, and have registered it.

I now need to re-index the databases using the ResetSearchIndex.ps1 script, however, when I do that against the live DB, it makes the database unsearchable during the re-index. 

The last database I re-indexed took ~23 hours for a 700GB database. 

I have 34 Databases total spread across 6 Exchange servers.  Largest database I have is 1TB.

I am considering running the re-index on the secondary databases in my DAG, then when they are complete I can activate the secondary database.

After that, I can re-seed the primary DB index from the secondary database and re-activate it when finished.

Does that sound reasonable? Or will I have problems activating the secondary after it's been crawled since it doesn't match the primary's index?

This might explain it better
