Setting Discrete Auto-Archive Settings for Multiple Exchange Accounts

$
0
0

Users have Exchange accounts with us (Exchange 2013), and with other of their clients. In Outlook, the Autoarchive settings seem to apply to all folders across all accounts. We can see how individual folders can be set to deviate from the default settings. But is there a way to set a default for each account?

For example, let's say a user has two Exchange accounts active in their Outlook 2013. One is with us (us.com) and on is with another client of theirs (otherclient.com). When these messages are archived to PST files, messages archived to the us.com PST archive mailfile should never intermingle with messages from the otherclient.com mailfile, which should be archived to a totally separate otherclient.com PST archive.

It seems this would be the prevalent preference (I would think there are some who want to dump all their messages regardless of source into a single mail archive, but I'd expect that to be a significant minority), but there doesn't appear to be any way to do this.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Colin

How do users access In-Place Archive Messages from Outlook 2013?

$
0
0

I feel like I must be missing something really obvious, because I can't find anything on the Internet about this. I can see easily how to access the In-Place Archive for users on OWA -- in OWA, the Archive folders appear below the standard folders. Maybe I'm too used to the old PST archiving and auto-archive settings, where it was as simple as opening the archive PST file.

With the new In-Place Archive feature that premiered in Exchange 2010 (I'm using Exchange 2013 and Outlook 2013), 2 questions:

1. How do Outlook users open or access the archive folder when it's stored on the server?

2. Where do I specify the auto-archive settings (such as the message age before archiving on a per folder basis)? I know I can do this under File | Options | Advanced | Auto-archive for PST-based archives. I don't see anyplace, either on Exchange or via Outlook, to set this up with the In-Place archive.

And if I'm just completely missing the point of In-Place archives and they are not really a replacement for PST archives (but everything I read seems to say they are), please let me know that I just can't do what I'm trying to do. But if that's the case, I would really like some help understanding the purpose of In-Place Archives, if not to just provide a server-based storage for the mailfile's archive.

Thanks,
Colin

Exchange 2010 Truncation Question

$

0

We have Exchange 2010 SP3 RU4 with multiple production servers and DR servers (at a remote location) with multiple databases as part of multiple DAG's. We continuously run EMC replication manager to create snapshots of the databases on the DR servers DB's.

The problem we see sporadically is when Truncation occurs it appears to run on the primary DB's at our production site and affects RPC and latency numbers go (100-200 msec) up affecting the user experience. Shouldn't truncation run only on the DR servers that the backup copies of DB's reside since the backups are running on the backup copies at the DR site? I need clarity on this and may be missing something.

Error after changing SamAccountName and Alias

$

Hi,

I've just setup a Exchange 2010 system for multi-tenant and almost everything work well except this issue.

I created an account for user named Smith, and there is his information:

- UPN: smith@mydomain.com

- SamAccountName: smithj

- Alias: smithj

- Email address: smithj@mydomain.com

As I realize my typo mistake, I change all his information such as SamAccountName and Alias from smithj tosmith, then his email address to smith@mydomain.com and now I got this issue:

- I can login OWA, setup ActiveSync and Outlook with UPN smith@mydomain.com successfully.

- I can send/receive email internaly and externaly as smith@mydomain.com successfully

- But I cannot change password in OWA, because when I access the Change Password page, it still sees me asmydomain\smithj instead of mydomain\smith and the "last logon as" properties  still bemydomain\smithj. So everytime I try to change password in OWA, it says that the current password is incorrect.

- I've checked in AD and ADSI but didn't find anything weird, all his account info is correct but Exchange don't update its' database.

I don't want to delete and re-create this account. Please help me with this issue.

Thank so much.


Only see archive Retention Tags -- where are auto-delete options?

$
0
0

In Exchange Server 2013, the Default MRM includes a 1 wk, 1mo, 6 mo, 1 yr, and 5 yr delete retention tags. How do I make these available in Outlook 2013 at the Folder level? I do see them under the "Assign Policy" for individual mail items, but not under folder Properties  -> Policy tab. The only options I can set there is under Online Archive, which doesn't include any delete options (presumably because those are only Archival options).

There is a link below Folder Policy that says "Add or Remove Retention Policies", but it just launches Chrome (which is not my default browser, as confirmed under Default Programs in the Control Panel, where IE has all of its defaults), and then gives an error.

Troubleshooting retention policy not applying to a particular mailbox

$

Dear All,

For test purpose I created a retention policy to look for items older then 3 yrs in Mailbox folder and perform a permanent deletion of items found with age more then 3 yrs.

I applied it to three mailboxes for observation. Next day I observed on two mailboxes items were deleted which were more then 3 yrs. But for one of them it did not. How I can find cause of this and apply it on this one as well? Waiting for response.

When seeing in powershell for applied retention policy to mailbox giving problem, I see the policy there, but when logging in through OWA right click on 'mailbox' folder, I don't see any retention policy. While in other two mailboxes on which same policy is applied if I log in through OWA and right click on 'mailbox', I see link 'retention policy > use parent folder policy'

"send as" permission problem

$

0

Hello,

as a lot of other people i have problems with a user that needs to SEND AS, send on behalf works fine, but not send as.

letsay is "user A" and "mailboxb"

in mailboxb in EMC, i've set full access and send as for user A, yet when i try to send from owa or outlook i get "you dont have permission" :S

IF i add the "send on behalf" on the delivery options, then it does send, but it reaches "user A on behalf of mailbox B" which is NOT what i need.

i also did a "Update-Recipient -Identity "mailboxb" to no avail(tried the mailbox name, FQDN mail, etc)

using a domain/exchange administrator account of course works perfectly not needing any of the 2 permissions

the EXCH is 2010SP3 CU10 so it's the latest available

outlook 2013 pop up for credentials - Exchange 2010 sp3

Hi,

i have a customer with ms office 2013 that  keeps asking for credentials. (connecting by rpc over http) All other clients on the network dont experience this issue. (outlook 2010)
Exchange 2010 has been fully patched to sp3 rollout 4. Client OS is Win 7 home x64

So far i tried to:

  • remove this account from this profile en reinstall it.
  • changed account settings ( slow and fast connection settings in rpc over http ==> advanced settings)
  • changed authentication from basic to ntlm (on server and  client)
  • change userpassword
  • remove all user passwords for this account in password vault
  • add new profile for this account
  • reset the ms exchange rpc service from network service to local and back to check for password cache corruption
  • switch off exchange cache and shared folders

when i add the same account to another client i dont  have this issue. So i dont think the issue comes from the Exchange server. The profile also contains another exchange mailbox on another exchange server that havent got this problem. This problem started copple weeks ago and before it was working fine.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

Greetings,
Michel

I have about 4 or 5 domains I can't seem to send email to. I am running Exchange 2010. We run a barracuda spam filter that all email run through, however we don't send email out through it. That is handled by our exchange server. We have been in this configuration for years. I have ran through some tests via telnet and MXtool box but nothing seems to be pointing me in any good directions. The error I am getting most is 451 4.4.0 Primary target IP address responded with: "421 4.2.1 Unable to connect" Attempted failover alternate host, but that did not succeed.

Any help world be appreciated.

Exchange inner forest deployment

Hello All,

I can't seem to find any documentation or help for the situation I am in. Originally I came in to a small County Government that was running Exchange 2010 and the DC on the same 2008 STD server. There have been constant issues either with the DC or Exchange 2010 and of course the install cancels any support. I have moved the DC to another server and it is running as the backup right now since I cannot DC Promo the server that has both on it now. Where I am stuck on this whole thing is can I bring up a new server, install Exchange, and start working with it while the current Exchange 2010 server is still running? If so, can I have it on the domain and it will not affect the users being able to get to the mailboxes? Again, if I can build it on the current domain and have it running and start migrating mailboxes and public folders ( I don't see any DAG's showing in the current config) with the current machine being the DC and Exchange 2010 server how will I demote it, take it off line, or do I just turn it off and get rid of it. Are the 3rd party software solutions capable of handling the migrations and do they work well?

I am fairly new to Exchange so some of these questions may seem basic but I have spent most of my time in a Groupwise environment. Always better to ask and feel bad about it being a low level question then not ask and crash everything.

Thanks again for all of the help that has been provided by everyone here.

Access Other People's Calendar from phone

We run Exchange 2010 SP3 and we have an assistant requiring access to the CEO's calendar (She is delegate in Outlook and has Editor permissions to the Calendar).

She is using an Android Samsung S5 phone, what would be the best way to achieve this?

Public Folders in DAG - One is much larger than the other

$
0
0

2 years ago we migrated to Exchange 2010 in a DAG setup (from a 2003 environment). This was done with the assistance of a 3rd party vendor who no longer is available.

When it was set up we had configured two public folder stores: Public Folders 1 on SERVER1 and Public Folders 2 on SERVER2.

Historically we have not used the Public Folders much except for a few shared calendars, but earlier this year we began migrating data from a company we purchased.  They have quite a bit of content in their public folder store (they were using it for mail archiving apparently) and I have noticed that over the several months that I've been doing this only one of the public folder databases (Public Folders 1) is growing in size.  Public Folders 1 is currently over 100GB while Public Folders 2 is only about 150MB.  Aren't these supposed to be equal size?  I would imagine that if SERVER1 went down then none of the public folder data would be available since there isn't a copy of them on SERVER2.

Is there something that may not have been configured properly to ensure the availability of public folder data on both servers?  Thank you.

Created a room mailbox calendar to use it as a resource availability calendar. I assigned myself Full permissions and added to my outlook and from properties > permissions I added myself and assigned

create items, create subfolders, edit own, Full read and Delete own permissions.   Then I remove myself admin permissions from EMC.  Come back to my outlook and I can create items but cannot modify it???  Outlook 2010/2013.  When I modify I get

Free/busy information isn't currently available, Error Code 5006

$

Hi all,

I have one mailbox in my organization (of course, it belongs to the president) generating this error when other employees try to use the Scheduling Assistant to schedule a meeting with him. All other calendars appear to be working normally (i.e., I have not seen this on any of the other 1200 calendars in our organization):

OWA: Free/busy information isn't currently available. For more information, please contact your helpdesk. (Error code: 5006)

Outlook: No information. No free/busy information could be retrieved. The recipient's calendar has too much free busy data to display.

I tried running the script here to clean up duplicate items, but it found no duplicates and had no effect: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/exchange/en-US/65d052bd-2650-4852-ac83-ab95a123b921/exchange-2010-user-calendar-will-not-display-freebusy-says-information-unavailable-error-code?forum=exchange2010

I ran a mailbox export of just the affected calendar. It is 78 MB and contains 1571 items. By comparison, his assistant has a 380 MB calendar and 4171 items, and that calendar displays free/busy information correctly.

I also checked permissions on the affected calendar and they are set to the default to allow viewing free/busy from any employee. The only exception is that there are two admin assistants with Editor privileges, but this is not the only mailbox with such assigned permissions.

We are running Exchange 2010 SP3 with rollup 10, and clients are Outlook 2010 or 2013. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks!
