owa issues
Getting a double login prompt from an external XP machine. On site when you go to OWA it only asks you to login once, but off site with this winxp machine it is asking for a double login. Tested with a win2k machine off site and it seemed to work with only one login. Went to ms site and couldn't find anything I was doing wrong? Any help would be amazing. 2nd weird thing is that with the winxp machine the first login allows me to save user id and password, but the 2nd login has the box but even if I check the box and type in my user id and pass it doesn't save it. OWA is accessible though but again with 2 logins.

Allows a server to be pulled with less impact on them (it does happen from time to time...).

AW: Recipient Policy
Rgearding the fax proxy address: We had similar problems, but you don't have to remove the custom addresses. If you look in the event log, an error is generated by ExchangeSA which states that a dll couldn't be found in the appropriate directory (path is given in the event). That means that RUS isn't running. If you just copy that dll from your fax software into that directory the RUS on this server will run again. Alas, you have to do that for every RUS and every fax software installed in the forrest even if the fax software is only installed in one domain. After that RUS started to stamp new mailuser again. See also: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;283134 Additionally to the question wether RUS runs or not, have a look at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;246127.

Let me think of an appropriate response: get stuffed. Your analogy is inane and irrelevant. I'm describing a real-world situation - he's lost the server a couple of times; he's never lost data.

RE: Recipient Policy
Patrick, If you have not done so already, I would restart the SA on the box that is hosting the RUS. Typically this is where you will see any errors that my relate to your problem (when the RUS is initialized), but only when the SA starts (even with the default logging). Turning up the MSExchangeAL logging will (should) spit out a TON of events in the app log, so be ready to do some filtering and even change the size of you app log to a larger size (as not to miss any errors). -Steve -Original Message- From: Patrick Scribner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 24, 2003 8:00 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Recipient Policy No but we did install Symantic Antivirus/filter for Exchange on the box about a month ago and just noticed this happening a couple weeks ago.

RE: how to cut down on spam
Spammunition filters very well, though you have to maintain a good collection of spam for it to use in building its rules. It just pops up error screens every once in a while. It also doesn't deal well with Inboxes containing lots of unread messages, as it rescans all of them whenever something new comes in, increasing the frequency of the aforementioned error screens. -Peter -Original Message- From: Dave Vantine [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 9:51 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: how to cut down on spam Can you elaborate flakey?

RE: how to cut down on spam
We use the Surf Control product and have great success with it. It (along with a lot of other products) allows us to use Reverse DNS lookups and RBL lookups against incomming e-mail to block a lot of spam before it even gets through the door. After it makes it through those checks they have a nice Anti-Spam agent that is updated nightly. In addition, you can do dictionary checks to further eliminate spam and unwanted content. It also gives you the flexibility to setup allow rules to prevent known good domains from being submitted against the anti-spam filters. It took a few weeks to tune all the filters but since then it runs very well. - Matt Matthew Bailey LAN Engineer CSK Auto, Inc.

Exchange 5.5 IMS vs. Windows 2000 SMTP
Hello I have an Exchange 5.5 server configured to send internet messages using DNS, except for a couple of domains, that are configured to be forwarded to a relay host instead (the configuration is done in Exchange 5.5 IMS). Now, I have put my Exchange server behind a firewall and configured it to forward all messages to a mail relay host in the DMZ. The mail relay is using the simple Windows 2000 SMTP service. Is it possible to do the same configuration for the Windows 2000 SMTP service (i.e. use DNS to deliver messages except for some domains)? If not, is it possible for Windows 2000 SMTP to forward all mail to a relay server instead of using DNS to deliver them? Thank you for the precious help.

RE: IPM.Post VS. IPM.Note
Jeez, how is that an upside? After we spent the resources to develop this stuff to make it work right during the 5.5 era, now we're told to rewrite everything. So where does this leave us? In another 2 years, given Microsoft's penchant for change, none of it will work with Yukon and here we are again. Yes this is great for system integrators, consultants, etc. but we can't just charge our customers (students) more money to cover all these redevelopment costs. I won't argue about the fact that maybe the scripts should be updated. But that would be a lot of work. And in these times of tight budgets and layoffs (my team has less than HALF the staff we had this time last year but several new major development projects), it doesn't get a chance to boil up in the priority lists and instead becomes a major pain in the derriere and another reason for people to question Microsoft's customer/developer commitment. This is a major problem in an environment (academic) where you have to sell Microsoft to management and users as a server environment (as you know, the sun never stops shining in academia, if you know what I mean) I know, not your problem. We have the same issue with Peoplesoft (at least their backward compatibility is somewhat better, though) and who knows what oracle will do with that. Terry L.

We are implementing a customized application developed by a third party which has some Exchange integration feature that uses LDAP protocol to retrieve user information through GAL. We are running Exchange 5.5 at our site and we have LDAP enabled with the default settings. To find out if an email client can talk to the server using LDAP, I have created a new mailbox on Exchange server and gave ADMIN permissions under Configuration-Protocol-LDAP-Permissions and try to connect to it via Outlook client using LDAP but I get the following error message Failed to connect to 'Name of our Exchange server' due to invalid authentication. Ensure a valid user name and password has been entered on the Microsoft LDAP configuration page for the Name of the Exchange server account. Additionally If I go to the Protocols tab of the new mailbox I just created, I see that the Recipient Server enabled for LDAP but the settings options are NONE whereas it is defaults for IMAP4 POP3. How can I make the LDAP to work for this new application on Exchange 5.5? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: IPM.Post VS. IPM.Note
Terry, I feel for you. I really do. The lighthearted upside I meant was that rather than sorry, you're screwed, there's no possible way to improve the situation, you at least have an option available to you, however unpalatable it might be. Public Folders are very likely to change again sometime in the future. The Yukon implications are a complete unknown right now, but I'd gamble that things from a development standpoint will not look the same. At TechEd, the Yukon version of Exchange was placed at 2006 at the soonest. Given the conservative nature you folks have expressed about hotfixes, I'm led to believe 2007+ might be the soonest you would go to that platform. Given a 4+ year window, getting your rules/event script stuff changed to event sinks that can fire more reliably on all items does seem like a possible path that makes financial sense. Microsoft did end up leaving the 5.5 Event Script capability in Exchange 2003, which they had said at one point they would not do, so at least some scant attention has been paid to backward compatibility. In this case, though it's healthy to be wary of hotfixes, I'd sure try it in the lab and look to implement it if it helps the rules work better. One of the problems I see is that while everyone I know says they have public folder problems, few have actually made the necessary PSS calls to make them get the right amount of attention from the Exchange team. With the release of the hotfix that changes the default to IPM.Note, it's obvious that some threshold of documented pain was reached. I filed a bug on this during the Exchange 2000 JDP during Beta 2. I filed it again on Exchange 2003. And I will keep telling Microsoft what I need and what I perceive others need from Public Folders. It's obvious what influence I carry though. :) I think the permissions problems are worthy of further discussion. It sounds to me like there is more than one issue. Is that correct? Do you have problems both simply accessing the public folders and also accessing the public folder rights?

RE: IPM.Post VS. IPM.Note
Three times? That reminds me... If you have the Exchange Server scripting add-on enabled in Outlook, MAPI Outlook will open three connections to the Exchange server (without the Exchange scraping add-on, only two). One for each store (mailbox and public) and one to the scripting system folder. I wonder if that is related to the general problem. I also saw similar issues back in 1998 when we had a network issue and the RPC/NETBIOS calls failed. Changing the RPC binding order helped these days but since the Outlook 2002 process to connect to an Exchange server has changed I am not sure if the former issue might happen here too. -Original Message- From: Beavers, Terry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 8:55 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: IPM.Post VS.

RE: IPM.Post VS. IPM.Note
See also Andy's comments. I really don't think it's in a 2 year timeframe. I saw the first Yukon demo 2 years ago and the beta just started now... As for anything will change in the next version of Exchange Server: yes, no doubts. Same happened in Windows 2003 IIS6 and Sharepoint Portal Server 2003 already and other products will follow. SPS2003 is actually a pretty good example to see which architecture we can except in Exchange 2005 (or whatever it'll be named). This is from a developer point of view the same hassle as from a customer who is using that stuff, I agree completely with you on that. However, I dare to ask myself if it is worth to stick with the old technology and just live with restarting a hanging service (or to make it worse: reboot the server) every now and then or probably jump into the cold water and rewrite the stuff to finally get a more stable system at all. I do understand that nowadays everyone (including my company) has small budgets (can you say no budget?) and less resources to work with. But as Andy said, if you plan to stick with the currently existing technology (which makes totally sense from a business point of view and I would do the same if working in your environment with that amount of customers/students) I'd really consider to iron out one of the potential showstoppers by migration the code base. I was really scared when I red that you guys need to start the Exchange 2000 Event Service every now and then. I know that it was never 100% reliable to use Exchange 5.5 Scripting agent technology (as you know too, I'm sure), hence now with Windows 2000 SP4 and Exchange 2000 SP4 around the corner I'd say it is safe to move forward and stick with it for the next 3-4 years as you did with the Exchange 5.5 scripting stuff (I remember our first e-mail contact back in 1999 and when we met at TechEd 2001). It seems to have done it work for almost 6 years fairly well. So, it doesn't hurt to retire it, or? BTW, If you need any particular help I'd be happy to do so. I've a gazillion of code snippets around I'd share with you guys to get you started. -Original Message- From: Beavers, Terry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 8:59 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: IPM.Post VS.

I've changed the home site and added the 2000 server to the replication list, and also have a ADC for public folders. I can see the folders on the 2000 server, the folders are in AD, but they don't have anything in them. In ESM the folder size and item list is 0, and they are not accessible from Outlook. I've checked the public store has an proxyaddress listed in adsiedit. The servers are in the same site both in exchange and physically, and the folders are less than a meg. How do I get this moved over?

RE: Not Open Relay, but...
1. Probably not. If your Exchange faces the Internet, it should reject the relay attempt during the RCPT TO: command, so the messages won't be accepted for delivery and therefore they won't be NDRed. 2. Yes. 3. If dfg.com is your domain then it's normal spam to automatically generated addresses.

Domain in question is DFG.com I've just taken over a site's Exchange server and have noticed something strange. It's been sometime since I had to play with Exchange this deep but the Queues on my IMS keep filling up with 1000's of emails. We're not an Open Relay that I can tell (I've tested) but there's just a ton of 'Outbound Message Awaiting Delivery' with originator and Destination Host of different .com's. There is a ton of Inbound Mail Failures in the 'Admin' mailbox for delivery failures as well. My three questions are: 1) Are these messages that are trying to relay but failing? 2) If so, are they just going to sit in the Queue for the default time? 3) For the Inbound Mail Failures, a lot of them are going to bogus addresses like [EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Where are these all coming from?
