In all seriousness, this is a policy issue. If you don't have an acceptable use policy for your internal network and applications, then get one, get sign off by management, publish it and enforce it.

RE: Mdeamon on my Network!
So the conclusion is that any LAN user can use my server as gateway, I have send mail server as well but to use e2k as a gateway I have to add the IP address for relay through my e2k server.

Setting mailbox permissions
Hi, I have a site running ex2000 sp3 on an sbs2000 (windows2k sp3) box where all permissions on the mailboxes have been set to default =none. I have been asked to change calendar permissions to reviewer and rather than doing each mailbox individually, I am attempting to use the setperm tool. Is anyone familiar with this? It is available from http://www.mailsoftware.co.uk/downloads.html and is also listed on the slipstick site: http://www.slipstick.com/exs/permissions.htm I have not used this before and when I read the read me it mentioned some prerequisites: 1. Microsoft Outlook installed without Security Patch (Ensure CDO is installed - This is not the case with Outlook 2000) 2. ACL.DLL registered. Use regsvr32 acl.dll 3. Logged on as user with Permissions Admin or greater on relevant mailboxes. 3 I am fine on but 1 2 I am not sure - 1) does the security patch refer to oulook98? The version I will be running the app from will be Outlook2002 - I know that cdo is part of this but do I need to install it separately? 2)acl.dll is not on my system (XP) appears to be an uncompiled part of the platform sdk.

Yep this is what I suggested yesterday.

OT - list of webmail providers?
Appreciate it's way OT but I figured it's worth a post. I'm looking to use our proxy server to block certain types of files from being downloaded from webmail sites, mostly the ones we block via regular email (for political reasons we won't be blocking access to the webmail sites themselves). Does anyone know of a fairly comprehensive list of all the main webmail providers out there in fqdn or IP address form? We're using MS ISA server as the first proxy/firewall and you can download destination sets but the ones I've found seem fairly dated. I know we'll never get all of them but if we can cover the bigger ones it's a start.. regards, Paul -- Paul Hutchings Network Administrator, MIRA Ltd.

RE: Mdeamon on my Network!
He's not relaying, he's delivering inbound right?[1] You could control what servers are allowed to communicate on port 25 to your Exchange server, but it's a lot more effort than a few minutes in a closed room with the offender... unless you think this is the tip of the assberg, in which case it may make sense to go further lock things down.

I never quite get this. The company sets a retention period of 60 days, then wants to know how to archive important mails. Well, every email every user gets is important to them.

Ask the lawyers where they will get the supporting e-mail based information to defend a lawsuit.

Recover Deleted Items
Greetings all, A user comes to me saying that nearly all of his contacts are missing. I log onto his account from my workstation, and sure enough, his contacts folder has about 10 contacts when it should contain about 200. This user's main computer is a notebook, so I export the contacts from the offline folder and import them to the contacts folder when the account is online with the Exchange 5.5 server. The user claims not to have deleted the contacts, and seeing as he is fairly computer literate, I believe him. (Ok, get your flame throwers ready) The user's notebook is a Mac, and the primary client is Outlook 2002 for the Mac which as you may know, is less than stable. So I attribute the random deletion of contacts to some sort of crash of his Mac Outlook 2002. But I am curious as to where the contacts are, because they are not in his Deleted Items folder. So from my PC, I log back onto his account and look at the tombstoned items accessed by the Recover Deleted Items tool. I see what I presume to be his contacts, all with the same deleted on on date of 9:36 am this morning. I also see what I presume to be email from the past few days and calendar items all with the same delete on time stamp, 9:36 am this morning. I walk over and verify with the user that they have not purposefully deleted email and calendar events this morning. I ask them to log off Outlook so I can restore items that were deleted at 9:36 am this morning. I go back to my office select all the items I want to restore, and click the recover selected items button. Here is where things get really odd. The items are no where to be found. Not in his deleted items folder, not in the original folders, not in any other account for which I have the profile configured on my PC, and they are no longer listed with the tombstoned items in his account. I did not restore the offline folder sync. logs that had a deleted on time stamp of 9:36am, and now those sync. logs have a different Deleted On time stamp: 11:28am Does anyone have an idea as to where I might find the items I attempted to recover? Is there a pleasant way to delve into the priv.ebd file and retrieve them? I am mainly interested in the email; calendar and contact information can be retrieved from the offline folders. Thank you for any useful suggestions. (And you are welcome for setting up an easy Macintosh target for all you giddy flame throwers.)

RE: Email Retention Policies
Let me add one more point and expand a bit. There is no perfect way to enforce what the lawyers want. Users can go so far as to copy messages to floppy disks if they want. The problem is that malcontents tend to keep evidence in their favor. If companies and their policy-conforming employees dutifully destroy all evidence in the company's favor, any idiotic lawsuit will be awfully one-sided. For example, a malcontent keeps (on a floppy disk, say) an e-mail that looks to be sexually harassing. The company, in its misguided attempt to reduce the effects of discovery, issues an edict that all messages are to be destroyed. Unfortunately, the company's employees have destroyed all the other correspondence showing that the entire e-mail thread surrounding the apparently harassing message was a great big joke, and the malcontent was a willing participant, and the company loses the lawsuit because it can't defend the behavior.

Appointments not Showing in Outlook
We are currently experiencing a weird issue where there are calendar events in OWA that are not showing up in Outlook. Anyone ever seen this before? We are running Outlook 2002 and Exchange 2000 SP3. I have checked the filters and views and everything looks normal. Now we also have Blackberry devices but strangely those are accurate as well. Also when sometimes tries to view the calendar in Outlook the meeting requests are still missing.

RE: Recover Deleted Items
I found the recovered items! (This was followed by a dramatic reduction in my pucker factor.) When following Ed's suggestion to check the views on the folders, I checked the inbox, contacts, and calendar folders. I foolishly overlooked the Deleted items folder, which had a view limiting the items that were seen. Now the question still remains: What could have caused many items (but not all items) from at least 3 different folders to be tombstoned and bypass the Deleted Items folder? Was it an oddball crash in Outlook 2002 for the Mac? Or does this warrant further investigation? Thanks Ed for your help. Will -Original Message- From: William E.

I log onto his account from my workstation, and sure enough, his contacts folder has about 10 contacts when it should contain about 200. This user's main computer is a notebook, so I export the contacts from the offline folder and import them to the contacts folder when the account is online with the Exchange 5.5 server. The user claims not to have deleted the contacts, and seeing as he is fairly computer literate, I believe him. (Ok, get your flame throwers ready) The user's notebook is a Mac, and the primary client is Outlook 2002 for the Mac which as you may know, is less than stable. So I attribute the random deletion of contacts to some sort of crash of his Mac Outlook 2002. But I am curious as to where the contacts are, because they are not in his Deleted Items folder. So from my PC, I log back onto his account and look at the tombstoned items accessed by the Recover Deleted Items tool. I see what I presume to be his contacts, all with the same deleted on on date of 9:36 am this morning. I also see what I presume to be email from the past few days and calendar items all with the same delete on time stamp, 9:36 am this morning. I walk over and verify with the user that they have not purposefully deleted email and calendar events this morning. I ask them to log off Outlook so I can restore items that were deleted at 9:36 am this morning. I go back to my office select all the items I want to restore, and click the recover selected items button. Here is where things get really odd. The items are no where to be found. Not in his deleted items folder, not in the original folders, not in any other account for which I have the profile configured on my PC, and they are no longer listed with the tombstoned items in his account. I did not restore the offline folder sync. logs that had a deleted on time stamp of 9:36am, and now those sync. logs have a different Deleted On time stamp: 11:28am Does anyone have an idea as to where I might find the items I attempted to recover?

Followup on OWA suddenly died thread
Last Friday I reported that all of the sudden our Exchange 5.5 OWA server started crashing with ASP 0115 errors. Andy David (the godlike one) immediately zeroed in on my usage of Outlook 2003 and it's effect. While researching the problem I found that it was only MY mailbox that would crash it, so I started to clean out my inbox (completely emptying it) and also emptying my deleted items folder which was pretty full. I then got the patch from MS by calling PSS and having them email it to me. I tried a before test but I could no longer crash OWA with my cleaned up inbox.

RE: Followup on OWA suddenly died thread
Just so everyone is aware I had exactly the same problem, it was actually me and my boss (thankfully) that were causing it to crash via our use of Outlook 2003.

RE: Growing Exchange IS Out of control
Are you referring to the log files or the store file, or both? We had a problem recently where the log files grew rapidly but we did not notice any proportional store file growth. The problem was not the amount of data/messages a user was transferring, but the number of transactions a user was generating. She had sent out a mass email with an RR attached, and in the process of deleting all the RRs, generated enough transactions to fill up the log drive. To isolate the user, we went to Properties of the Private Information Store, Logons tab, added Total Ops to the view, and sorted by Total Ops. The offending user immediately jumped out at us. You'll need to check this while the log files are being generated at a higher-than-normal rate. (These instructions are for 5.5. I'm sure there is a 2000 equiv.) To fix the problem, we had her set up a .pst and ran a rule to move the RRs to the .pst. This didn't seem to generate as many transactions. If the growth also involves the store, turn up logging on the IMC (SMTP connections and possibly Message Archival) and Private Store (Transport Send/Rcv, I believe, but you may need to try other counters, too), then check the Event log and IMC Archive directory. You should be able to get a good idea of who is sending the most messages.

Replication Interval is: always run, and Replication message priority is: urgent. Looking at the Properties on some of the Folders that haven't replicated content, REPLICATION / DETAILS , it'll show (when looking at Source): SOURCE In Sync , Target Local Modified (when looking at Target): Source Remote Modified, Target In Sync. But, there are no times listed for last received or Avg. Trans. time With logging turned up to maximum I do see the following error regularly: = Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeIS Public Store Event Category: Replication Errors Event ID: 3093 Date: 9/2/2003 Time: 7:41:51 PM User: N/A Computer: EXCHANGE Description: Error -2147221233 reading property 0x674b0014 on object type tbtMsgFolder from database First Storage Group\Public Information Store (EXCHANGE). == Searching Google Groups, it seems like this is an error that can be ignored. I have also come across a couple Google Group posts very similar to my plight, and of course they've gone unresolved. I haven't tried turning off Scanmail, and given the current mass of viruses being sent to us not something I could try and keep the servers available.
