Event Service won't start

2004-01-13 Thread Alex Alborzfard
EX 5.5, NT4 SP6a

Event service won't start and displays the following error message:

Could not start the Microsoft Exchange Event Service service on \\s-mail
Error 2140: An internal Windows NT error occured.

The only entry related in EV is Event ID 5 with the following description:

An unexpected MAPI error occured. Error returned was [0x80040154]

This happened right after all EX 5.5 services and the Server service one day
shut down
and the server couldn't log on to the domain. Installing an NT Hotfix and
some WINS tweaking resolved all the problems,
except for the Event Service stoppage.

The account associated with Event Service is the same as the one used to
install Exchange,
however Event service won't still start.

I found the resolution.  The Exchange Event Service needs to run as the
Exchange service account that was used to install exchange...not
localsystem.  Thanks for everyone's help.

Since this most likely means stopping EX, running Optimizer and re-applying
the SP,
it'll have to wait for an off-peak time. 
In the mean time, can you point me to those articles?

I've seen various articles on this.  One states to re-install the event
service portion on 5.5 by using the add/remove.  The issue I had was on
Exch2000 and was that the service needed to run as the exchange service
account.

EX2K DNS Stuff

2003-12-23 Thread Alex Alborzfard
Does EX2K caches the DNS data? If so, what is the default settings and
where/how it can be changed?
Also can EX2K be configured to use an IP address, instead of the host name
in DNS?
If so, where/how it can be configured?

Thanks

RE: Sporadic Email Problem

2003-11-07 Thread Alex Alborzfard
That's what I had suspected too. Now I have also noticed that the spam load
has increased tremendously
and that kind of coincides with these kind of problems. Every day I have to
go to IMS's Queue 
and delte blank originator emails manually.

Does that mean the server gets so overloaded that it cannot handle anymore
SMTP requests, so it rejects the emails
and it bounces the message or it just goes to the next MX record server that
is not available and that one rejects the emails? How can I find out which
server is bouncing the emails?

As for the lowest cost server, I thought that was always the case. So does
it depends on the DNS server's cache 
that the sending mail server is using?

Thanks

It looks like you have 6 different MX records. Verify that each one can
receive email for that domain. You may have one that's messed up and is
rejecting. 
Remember, just because one has the lowest cost, doesn't mean its always
going to receive the mail.

High Memory Usage for Store.exe

2003-10-06 Thread Alex Alborzfard
EX 5.5, SP4 on NT 4 SP6a

Store.exe is showing a high memory usage. The box has 512MB of memory, of
which between 396-400MB are being used
by Store.exe. Isn't this too high? 
Besides the obvious (adding more memory), what can be done to improve the EX
performance. With other EX services, AV software and other misc. services,
there is not much Available Memory: between 4-18MB. This has created
problems in sending and receiving, as the server sometimes doesn't respond
in time and just times out.

Thanks

Greetings,

I am using the Auto Accept utility for Outlook 98 Exchange 5.5 SP4. I have
several resources that have the Agent Tab available to them in the Inbox and
I have a few that don't have the agent tab turned on. How do I turn that tab
on for all resources so that when I configure Auto Accept it works properly?

I have gone those the folders; system folders; events roots;
eventconfig_SERVERID and everything is correct.  I have assured that the
account is the same in all resources. 

Still I am perplexed and need your assistance.

Cleaning up EXCHSRV folder

2003-09-24 Thread Alex Alborzfard
I had initially installed EXCH on C: (system partition), and had all the
services on that drive. Later I added more drives and moved some of the EXCH
services to other partitions.
Now C: hosts only DSADATA (Directory Working Path) and MDBDATA (IS Working
Path).
I'm running out of space on C: and was wondering if I can remove some of the
EXCHSRV folders that perhaps are no longer needed, without breaking EXCH.
Do I have no choice but to re-install EXCH?

On a related note, is there a utility (on resource kit, etc.) that will
automate reporting of the space on the hard drives?

EX 5.5, NT 4, SP6

Thanks

Problem with server reply in Rules Wizard

2003-09-23 Thread Alex Alborzfard
I set up a rule to have server reply using a specific message,
but although the condition is met, nothing happens. 
I I read somewhere that there's a 32K size limit with RPC packets, 
which is I think what this is, but I checked the size of the reply and it
would be only 535 Bytes.
Before doing this, I had tried (unsuccessfully) a server-side Auto-Reply
script (from CDOlive), but that didn't work either.

I have EX5.5, on NT 4 SP6.

  I think I have asked this before but didn't really get any
  responses.  We 
  have reps in the field that sync their Outlook 2002 clients 
  to an OST over 
  dialup.  For some reason it is very slow.  Now when they 
 sync it over
  broadband it takes about 30 seconds.  When they sync it over
  dialup even 
  after a full sync of their mailbox is done over broadband or 
  lan line, it 
  takes about 2 hours.  This doesn't make sense.  I know the 
  connection is 
  faster but I don't think that's it.  They don't have anything 
  to sync.  I 
  have changed the server timeout to 120 seconds with no luck.  
  Is there like 
  a reg key or something that I can change to make this faster. 
   We need to 
  stick to OST files because we have public folders and 
  calendars that need to 
  be online.  We are also using EX2000 SP3 if that matters but 
  I think this is 
  more Outlook than Exchange.

   Subject: Slooww OST sync over dialup
  
  
   I think I have asked this before but didn't really get any   
responses.  Wehave reps in the field that sync their Outlook 2002
clientsto an OST overdialup.  For some reason it is very slow.
Now when they   sync it overbroadband it takes about 30 seconds.
When they sync it overdialup evenafter a full sync of their
mailbox is done over broadband orlan line, ittakes about 2
hours.  This doesn't make sense.  I know theconnection isfaster
but I don't think that's it.  They don't have anythingto sync.  I   
have changed the server timeout to 120 seconds with no luck.Is there
likea reg key or something that I can change

Subject: Problem with server reply in Rules Wizard

I set up a rule to have server reply using a specific message, but although
the condition is met, nothing happens. 
I I read somewhere that there's a 32K size limit with RPC packets, 
which is I think what this is, but I checked the size of the reply and it
would be only 535 Bytes. Before doing this, I had tried (unsuccessfully) a
server-side Auto-Reply script (from CDOlive), but that didn't work either.

I have EX5.5, on NT 4 SP6.

Thanks

Thanks for your help!
Btw the server-side script is still not working.

Outlook to Exchange over VPN issues

2003-08-14 Thread Alex Alborzfard
We are in the process of rolling out VPN (PPTP/IPSEC) to allow access to
remote access to Exchange.
But I've heard the performance is really dismal especially over dial-up.
I've also heard OL 03 with EX 03 takes care of this problem, by using RPC
over HTTP.
Should we wait and upgrade to OL/EX 03 instead?

What are other OL(2000) to EX(5.5/2K) over VPN connectivity issues?

OWA Viewing Error

2003-08-11 Thread Alex Alborzfard

When I try to access email via OWA, after entering the mailbox name
And then domain\user name and password, I get the Unable to get renderer
error.
When I click on OK, it loads the OWA mailbox page but without showing the
emails and
It displays this header: 

Page cannot be displayed. There is a problem within the page you are trying
to reach
 and it cannot be displayed

The strange thing is that it doesn't happen when you load a new browser
window, 
but if you log out and log back in, you'll get the error message.

QMQP protocol

2003-07-11 Thread Alex Alborzfard
One of our vendors received an email infected with BugBear virus coming from
an address from our domain.
However it's a bogus address. After checking out the header and the path, I
found the sender's IP address
and found out that it's running QMQP on port 628.
I found a link through Google that it says it's a faster protocol than SMTP
and it's used to centralize mail queue for cluster of hosts. Apparently it
runs on Unix.

Does anyone know whether the protocol is legitimate and/or could be used for
spamming or spreading virus?


Thanks

RE: Brick level backups - legal disclaimers

Well you could probably format the link to let you track the clicks.

But as we know, noone reads these things anyway so it really shouldn't
matter - not that that will placate your legals, of course.

Perhaps some good might come of this - if It was in a language I couldn't
understand. becomes an accepted legal defence then the work of the Plain
English Campaign (http://www.plainenglish.co.uk/) and similar bodies might
become a lot easier.

Back on the original point though, if you need a language targeted
disclaimer you might be able to use a custom field on a mail form to set the
language, add it to the mail header and add the disclaimer based on the
content of this.

It would mean the people sending the mails would have to remember to set the
language field but at least it'd mean you wouldn't get a German disclaimer
every time you wrote Schadenfreude.

Not that I'm aware of. How would I find out for sure?
I know that we're connected to Internet via a Frame Relay to our HQ, so our
incoming and outgoing traffic
has to go through the HQ network and their firewall. I also know that they
added a 2nd line,
which has a different public IP address. But that was not supposed to affect
us, because we're still hanging
off the old line (and router). Also our mail server's public IP address
never changed and we are able to send/receive email as before.

Actually I emailed 2 other valid users on that domain, all with the same
result, so I don't think the problem is user-specific.
I'm suspecting the problem to be the reverse DNS lookup too. As I said
before I'm having problem with some other European domains as well.
With this one, I don't get the bounce back, but he never even receives the
email, although again if I send it from Yahoo, he'll get it fine and reply
back.

I wandered off in the wrong direction, sorry.  

I just tried pretty much the same thing your server tried and the recipient
is ok.

From the transcript you provided, either:

- The recipient wasn't there when the mail was originally sent,

- The server was momentarily screwed up,

- It's doing some kind of reverse DNS lookup test that your sending server
doesn't pass and it's giving you the wrong error message, or

- Something else I haven't thought of.

I don't think the problem is on your end.

I did some testing on dnsstuff.com and it told me that my mail server
doesn't have a reverse DNS entry, so some mail servers
won't accept email from it.
I have to contact my ISP to get that set up, since our DNS is hosted by
them. Once that's propagated (24-48 hours), I'll try
sending emails again to see if the problem was resolved.

Not that I'm aware of. How would I find out for sure?
I know that we're connected to Internet via a Frame Relay to our HQ, so our
incoming and outgoing traffic has to go through the HQ network and their
firewall. I also know that they added a 2nd line, which has a different
public IP address. But that was not supposed to affect us, because we're
still hanging off the old line (and router). Also our mail server's public
IP address never changed and we are able to send/receive email as before.

Messages sent to users at certain domain in Europe (Italy) from our Exchange
mailbox bounce back undelivered as User unknown: However when they are
sent from a Yahoo account, they get delivered without a problem. I verified
connectivity to recipient's mail server by pinging and telnetting to port 25
successfully. I even specified the recipient's mail server IP address
instead of relying on DNS, but the problem still persisted. I turned on the
SMTP Protocol Logging on IMC. Here's the
result:

RE: Interesting EX2K migration solution

2002-11-12 Thread Alex Alborzfard
Greg,

I'm not sure if you got the email I sent you yesterday, but I want to
clarify one more thing:
One EX55 box will be moved physically to another location, where its
contents will be moved using EXMERGE.
Therefore there'll be no chance to get the message flowing between the 2
Exchange boxes.

Thanks

Subject: RE: Interesting EX2K migration solution


Looks like a plan. I'll assume from 9. that this is talking about your
Exchange Organization A, which you are doing a Typical Migration on (put E2K
servers into your E55 org and move users).

As for the Exchange Ogranization B, which you have selected to use EXMERGE,
this is a Foreign Mail System Migration and EXMERGE is a decent tool for
this.

To explain more about redirection, here goes. There is a SINGLE, proper
method of migrating from foreign email systems. This is the ONLY method that
ensure that no messages are lost. If anyone tells you that there is another
method, they are wrong. Here is the overview:

1. Get both systems up and running
2. Get message flow going between the two systems either via SMTP or a
proprietary connector 
3. Syncrhonize directories between the two systems so that mailboxes from
system SOURCE show up in System TARGET's address book as foreign mail
entries (i.e. contacts). 
   Again, this can be done a number of different ways depending on the
systems involved. 
4. To migrate a mailbox, first, convert the foreign mail entry in the TARGET
system to a mailbox, preserving all addresses
5. Now, perform email redirection on the other systems to point them to the
newly created mailbox in the TARGET system.
6. Once redirection is complete, export the SOURCE mailbox and import it
into the TARGET mailbox

What this does is completely eliminate any problems with missing messages
during migrations. If performed correctly, you will never lose an email or
get a bounced message during migration.

Now, to be more specific about email redirection; since you asked. The issue
that email redirection attempts to solve is preserving address fidelity, or
the ability for users to address or respond to email during the migration
process. A typical scenario that can occur is the following: 1. User A sends
an email to User B 2. User A migrates to the new system 3. User B responds
to message and it bounces

Now, why does this occur? Well, for the most part it occurs because people
that write email systems are apparently brain dead. For example, E55 stamps
an internal X500 FROM address on every message an Exchange user sends out.
This is actually a hold-over from MS Mail which used the ever popular
10/10/10 format. If you simply delete the Exchange mailbox and create a
contact pointing to the new system, you have broken address fidelity because
the new contact has a different X500 address than the old mailbox. Bad.

The slickest way to solve this problem that I have found is to create a
contact in the SOURCE system pointing to the new mailbox in the TARGET
system. Then, use Exchange's handy dandy alternate recipient to define an
alternate recipient of that contact. You can then export the mailbox info
and import it to the new system and you will never break address fidelity.
An alternate approach is to record all of the various email addresses and
X500 address from the SOURCE mailbox and add them to your contact. You can
preserve address fidelity in that manner as well, but if you do it this way
you will have a gap in your migration process where you might miss a
message.

Now, you also have this problem:
1. User A sends a message to User B
2. User A migrates to new system
3. User B migrates to new system
4. User B responds to User A's message and it bounces.

What is going on here? Well, that sweet, loveable X500 address is still
sitting there stamped on that message. Unless you have that X500 address
associated with a mailbox on the new system, your messages will bounce in
this scenario. So again, you have to move all of your addresses from the
legacy system, including the X500 address to the new system.

Now, all of this is really not difficult, especially with the proper
automation tools and techniques. However, email redirection is by far the
most over-looked aspect of email migrations. And it can get pretty
complicated when multiple systems are involved. It works out to something
like n! scenarios that you have to take a look at. However, most of those
scenarios typically end up being invalid. For some reason, people have
reached the conclusion that email migrations mean missed messages and
bounced email, but that does not have to be the case. With proper planning,
design and engineering, email migrations can be flawless. I've been doing
flawless email migrations for a long time now. This process works and is the
ONLY thing that works.

RE: Interesting EX2K migration solution

Greg,

Thanks for your thorough response!
Here are some clarifications and comments on your response.

As far as I can understand it, this is how they want to do this:

1. Install a new server w/ NT 4 as a BDC.
2. Install a 2nd server w/ NT 4 as a BDC. Keep it as a backup. 
3. Replicate new BDC and promote it to PDC. Make sure existing PDC is
demoted. 
4. Replicate new PDC.
5. Upgrade PDC to WIN2K OS and make sure it communicates with location A's
DC
8. Install AD and give it a child domain name of child.newdomain.com. 
9. Make sure the new PDC can pass AD back and forth with other locations
which already have EX2K/W2K/AD
10. Install ADC on EX55 and create a one-way from 55 EX2K server. 
11. Use EXMERGE to move mail from 55s to EX2K. 
12. Once it's tested thoroughly the EX55 boxes in A  B will be abondoned.

Also one thing in your response I didn't quite understand was redirection.
How and where is it done exactly? 


Thanks

Subject: Re: Interesting EX2K migration solution


Alex,

I have performed these types of migrations before. In particular for a large
12,000 seat fast-food restaurant system composed of a number of different
email systems including 2 E55, 1 cc:Mail and 1 MS Mail systems. Here are the
main issues with these types of migrations (between 2 disparate Exchange
organizations):

1. It sounds like you will be integrating E2K servers into one of your
existing E55 organizations. I call this a Typical Exchange 2000 Migration.
Depending on how many sites you have, you will want to put anE2K
server in each of those sites. Once this is done you can move the users from
the E55 servers to your E2K servers. You can do this via the admin tools,
but it is a pain selecting and migrating them manually. Because I have done
this before, I actually have a tool that will batch-automate this process
that we have used with a lot of success. 

2. The second E55 system will be migrated as a Foreign Mail System. This is
referred to as a Foreign Mail System Exchange 2000 Migration. More on this
in a minute as this raises a number of issues you will need to be concerned
about. 

3. Before you do anything, you will want to upgrade your NT4 PDC to Windows
2000 and integrate it with your AD design. This is the NT4 domain where you
will be performing the Typical Exchange Migration. You will also want to
install the ADC into this domain. Then, you can install your first E2K
server and join it to your E55 organization. 

4. Because you are joining your E2K system into your existing E55 system,
you have solved most/all of your coexistence problems, GAL, messaging
connectivity, Free/Busy information and public folders. 

5. Because you are joining your E2K system into your existing E55 system,
you have solved most/all of your migration problems in terms of getting the
mailbox and other data to your new E2K environment. The only issue here is
if you want to do this all manually or automate the process. 

6. Because your other E55 system is being treated as a Foreign Mail System,
you have coexistence and migration issues with this system. Luckily, the
migration issues can be addressed through the use of the Exchange Migration
Wizard which semi-supports E55. The reason for the semi-support is that
unlike every other mail system that the Migration Wizard supports, E55
migrations are implemented by using a PST file for its export medium instead
of the standard PRI, PKL, SEC files used for all other migrations. This is a
pain because the migration wizard puts a random password on all of those
PST's. Again, this can be a real pain to do manually. And again, I have
tools, Rocket, to help automate this process. Also, more on migration issues
below... 

7. Now, coexistence is an issue for the foreign E55 system. You will
probably want to think about some type of coexistence between the two
systems. Not sure what you have in place today in terms of coexistence, but
the main things you will want to be concerned with are a GAL, Messaging
connectivity, Free/Busy connectivity and Public Folder synchronization.
There are various, largely unsupported tools on various resource kits and
other locations that can aid in this effort. However, in all honesty, they
are not the greatest tools in the world. Again, since we have run into this
before, we created Furnace, which allows one to easily exchange directory,
free/busy and public folder information between two disparate Exchange
systems (E55 and E2K). This gives you a GAL in each system that contains
everything from both systems. 

8. Once you get all of your Typical Migration complete, you can switch to
Native Mode in Exchange and consolidate your Administrative Groups to
simplify your life and no longer be bound by your E55 site definitions. 

9. As far as the user logon and access piece of this, depending on how you
are configured,

It is possible. You don't need a GC in the location that has no win2k/e2k,
all you need is a proper dns or a wins entry on your nt4 location dns server
for the e2k server on the other side and your users will be able to connect
with their outlook to that e2k server. I am just wondering what your plan is
to move the mailboxes from NT 4 location to E2K server in the other
location. Are you guys planning on dropping a ADC and do it that way or do
you just plan to use EXMERGE and do it that way.

This is a consulting engagement question.  That is, it's really the kind of
question that deserves more consideration than this kind of forum allows.

Having said that, the scheme you describe could possibly work.  It's even
possible that you could make it work with your users logging in to the NT4
domain.  But to tell you anything more than it's possible, I'd need to
know a lot more.

You really ought to pay for a good design.  It'd probably save you a lot of

Weird bounced message

2002-10-08 Thread Alex Alborzfard

EX5.5 SP4, NT4 SP6

Messages to a specific vendor (and their ISP) bounces back, when it's sent
from our mail server.
They can receive from any other place. Contacted their ISP and they said
they're not gonna
check their logs they get a proof that it is actually being blocked or
bounced by their Unix mail server. 
Below is the bounced message we get:

'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' on 10/8/2002 3:13 PM
The recipient name is not recognized
The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=US;a=
;p=VISIONICS;l=S-MAIL-021008191227Z-31529

There's nothing in the Event Viewer. Messages go out the IMC without a
problem.
Exchange can connect to port 25 on all of ISP's mail server.
Would message tracking help figuring out the problem? If so where's the
default directory/files
to look at?

Thanks

RE: OOA questions

2002-09-17 Thread Alex Alborzfard

Ok so a 3rd party tool is needed.

1- Maybe it's easy, but it's not a very efficient method. But thanks, I'll
check those sites.

2- OWA would work best when user is away and has no access to his/her
computer.
Maybe I'm wrong but doesn't turning off the auto-replies disables
generating auto-reply
and not the Out-of-Office messages and only to the Internet? 
This would have no effect on internal emails.

1- Easiest way I can think of is send a message to al users and see which
one's send back Out of Office replies. If a tool exists, it's either at
www.cdolive.com, www.mail-resources.com [1], or www.slipstick.com.

2- OWA could be used, but it amounts to the same thing as logging into the
user's mailbox. You could turn off auto-replies to the internet at your IMS
[2] to block all of them.

2- Is there  a way/tool to modify it (e.g. turn it off), right from the

 I just completed a reinstallation of our server that hosts

 we purchased
 from http://www.leederbyshire.com/OWA-PDA.asp. This was 
 working fine before

Shortcut for Public Folders

Pardon me if this has been asked before, but I didn't find information on

Creating shortcut/link for a specific Public Folder and sending it to the

I can see the path when I right-click on the folder and click Properties,

E55 does not use the IIS SMTP engine unless you have specifically done
something for some reason to make it do so. 
As for the new OWA box, uninstall the SMTP engine. Of the big 3 component
(WWW, SMTP, FTP) All you need is the WWW service.

Ok. Stopping the IIS admin services requries stopping the Microsoft SMTP
server.
Doesn't this disrupt the SMTP services on the EX box? I know EX5.5 unlike
EX2K doesn't (shouldn't) rely
on this service, but there have been times that I had to stop  start this
service for Exchange send  receive normally.
And if I install OWA on a WIN2K server, the SMTP service on IIS 5 would
provide the service? 
I thought the SMTP under IIS 4  5 were very different.

E55 does not use the IIS SMTP engine unless you have specifically done
something for some reason to make it do so. 
As for the new OWA box, uninstall the SMTP engine. Of the big 3 component
(WWW, SMTP, FTP) All you need is the WWW service.

Ok. Stopping the IIS admin services requries stopping the Microsoft SMTP
server. Doesn't this disrupt the SMTP services on the EX box? I know EX5.5
unlike EX2K doesn't (shouldn't) rely on this service, but there have been
times that I had to stop  start this service for Exchange send  receive
normally. And if I install OWA on a WIN2K server, the SMTP service on IIS 5
would provide the service? 
I thought the SMTP under IIS 4  5 were very different.

 Subject: Public Folders  Mailing Lists
 
 
 
 As with many companies, we have a number of users who all subscribe to
 similar mailing lists.  I'd like to bring some of these lists 
 under one
 umbrella by subscribing public folders to the lists instead of the
 individual users.  This is a reccomended strategy, correct?  I seem to
 remember reading about it on this list a while back.  Several 
 questions,
 however:
 
 1. Where can I get more information about setting this up?
   Archives, FAQ
 2. If the folders are subscribed, do the users need to 
 subscribe anyway to
 post to those lists?
   Yes.  The folder collects the mail; people post as 
 themselves.  The
 PF subs with some sort of get the mail option; the people sub as no
 mail.
 3. Is there no way to have a (#) printed next to public 
 folders for new
 messages?
   But of course.  Right click the PF, choose Add to 
 Outlook bar.  Set
 your view to Unread messages.  The number in parens is the number of
 messages you personally have not read.  Your view is your view.
 4. What are the real benefits to this approach?
   You already know.
 5. Anything else I should know?
   I set mine to have an age limit of about 6 months so 
 they never get
 out of hand.  If I see something go by that I want, I put it 
 in my Exchange
 (or whatever) PST for posterity.
 
 -Yanek.

There are of course good uses for a recipient container, but they should

Typically voting works like this:
There can be a number of choices. At least 2. Then people choose which one
they like best. That is the vote. Then the votes are counted, and the one
with the most votes wins.

Best solution for merging EX servers??

2001-11-13 Thread Alex Alborzfard

Scenario
---

Company X has merged with company Y. 

Company X has 2 locations:
East Coast  - 1 EX 5.5 SP4 on NT 4, responsible for
X.com domain's mail
UK -   NONE (Using East coast mail
server via Internet)
Company Y has 2 locations:
West Coast -  1 EX 5.5 SP4 on NT 4, responsible for
Y-west.com domain's mail
East Coast  -  2 EX 5.5 SP4 on NT 4, responsible for
Y-east.com domain's mail

Following is the connections between these sites:

X - Y(East) :   512kbps (FR)
Y(West) - Y(East) : 256kbps (FR)
Y(East) - FR Cloud :512kbps (FR)

X and Y(West) have to go through Y(East) to connect to Internet.

(There are additional/backup Internet connections as follows:)

X - Internet(backup):   384kbps (DSL)
X(UK) - Internet:   128kbps (ISDN)
Y(East) - Internet: 768kbps (T1)

Needs


1- The new company has taken the name X and wants all employees in all 3
locations to receive email
 sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. This should be done without any or minimum email
service interruption.

2- Provide a fault-tolerant solution, in case one of the EX servers goes
down or loses it's Internet connection.

3- Company wants to move EX2K at some point in the future. Should it wait to
merge first and
then migrate or migrate first and then merge?



Solutions
---

1- What type of connector and why?
2- How should the DNS MX records be arranged?
3- What are pluses  minuses for each merge now versus migrate now
scenarios?



Let me know if you need more information.

Thanks

Does this person have an alternate recipient defined for his/her mailbox?



P.S. Your initial explanation of your problem was not very clear at all. 
You stated :

It's being delivered to the .pst file because I don't have room on 
the server for more than 600 MB of email! Yes I know all about .pst 
files
being
not the ideal place to store email, but I can't bring down the server
right
now, just to add hard drive!

That to me sounds like your mail server has only 600 MG of available space,
not:

 I didn't say I have 600MB left on our mail server. The user's .pst 
file is 600MB.  We have whole bunch of salespeople and others, who 
have each
at least
that much email.(Which you stated later)

I understand that there is a care bear exchange list you can subscribe to.
Maybe you should try there...

Item #1: Email doesn't necessarily say what you mean
Item #2: Sure she can talk for herself.  However, we've been around here for
quite a few years so we tend to say what we want. Item #3: I saw that, she's
a very nice person and I would expect that of her. Item #4: I have been in
that position before with the exact opposite results you came up with.  I
wonder why... Item #5: Your point is what?!?  My mailbox is 700MB, I've seen
others over a GB.  Big Deal, I've got plenty of disk space and I would never
nor will I ever advocate the use of PST's with an Exchange server. 
Item #6: Apparently not.  Not likely.   Waaahh...
Item #7: Here's $.35, call someone who cares and ask for a refund.

1- I was trying to clarify my situation better for her.
   Contrary to what you thought, I wasn't trying to be condescending to her.

2- Even if I did, can't talk for herself?! Who are you, her lawyer??!
   Still it doesn't give you the right to insult people like that. And you
call
   yourself a computer professional??!

3- She responded to my email without any of the trash talk you did!

4- I am fully aware of our email system is not properly configured, but it's
not
   because I don't know what is the best way to do it, it's because:
   A) No matter how many times I've told them, management doesn't want to
listen to me. 
   B) It doesn't want to spend money.
   C) It's not a high priority
   D) The only time they would approve is when a disaster
  happens. This is typical of this company. You gotta work in my company
  to know what I'm talking about.

5- I didn't say I have 600MB left on our mail server. The user's .pst file
is 600MB.
   We have whole bunch of salespeople and others, who have each at least
that much email.

6- I wasn't looking for advice how to set up our email system. I know my
stuff well enough.
   I was just looking for an explanation for this. Instead what I got in
return was insult from you
   and advice on how to set up my mail server and sarcastic remarks from
others, except
   one person, who was actually trying to help me out.
7- So much for my wishful thinking that I can get help here!

Therefore all new emails are going to sit on the server.

Then they'll be on the .pst file.

EX5.5 SP4 - NT4

Whenever anyone is sending email to user X, they get the following message
back from System Administrator:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

  Subject:  Test#2
  Sent: 10/26/2001 1:04 PM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

  Joe Blow on 10/26/2001 1:04 PM
The recipient was unavailable to take delivery of the message
The MTS-ID of the original message is: c=US;a=
;p=VISIONICS;l=S-MAIL-011026170419Z-1270
MSEXCH:MSExchangeMTA:JERSEY CITY:S-MAIL

But the weird thing is the user X is actually receiving all the emails. Any
ideas why this is happening?

RE: Weird message from System Administrator

2001-10-26 Thread Alex Alborzfard


1- I was trying to clarify my situation better for her.
   Contrary to what you thought, I wasn't trying to be condescending to her.

2- Even if I did, can't talk for herself?! Who are you, her lawyer??!
   Still it doesn't give you the right to insult people like that. And you
call
   yourself a computer professional??!

3- She responded to my email without any of the trash talk you did!

4- I am fully aware of our email system is not properly configured, but it's
not
   because I don't know what is the best way to do it, it's because:
   A) No matter how many times I've told them, management doesn't want to
listen to me. 
   B) It doesn't want to spend money.
   C) It's not a high priority
   D) The only time they would approve is when a disaster
  happens. This is typical of this company. You gotta work in my company
  to know what I'm talking about.

5- I didn't say I have 600MB left on our mail server. The user's .pst file
is 600MB.
   We have whole bunch of salespeople and others, who have each at least
that much email.

6- I wasn't looking for advice how to set up our email system. I know my
stuff well enough.
   I was just looking for an explanation for this. Instead what I got in
return was insult from you
   and advice on how to set up my mail server and sarcastic remarks from
others, except
   one person, who was actually trying to help me out.
7- So much for my wishful thinking that I can get help here!

He/she who properly configures his/her doesn't have problems.  Apparently,
you don't follow this model.  

You're the one who started the Again: User is currently out... like Lori
is stupid and can't read.  I merely upgraded to the level deemed necessary
for you.  Call me what you want, think of me what you may...  Fact still
remains, you're housing improperly configured servers and clients.  I more
than get it, you can't dignify anything because you have nothing useful to
dignify.

Configure your sh!t properly and then come talk some trash.  Til then...
PEACE OUT!

What kind of language is this??? WTF you think you are??!!!
If you're so thick that you don't get it, don't go insulting people. I'm not

it!!!

Again: User is currently out of office and not poping email. Therefore all
new emails are going to sit on the server. They'll stay there until she/he
opens up Outlook and pops them. Then they'll be on the .pst file. The point
is email is being delivered, while the sender is receiving a bounced message
to the contrary, back from System Administrator.

It's being delivered to the .pst file because I don't have room on the
server for more than 600 MB of email! Yes I know all about .pst files being
not the ideal place to store email, but I can't bring down the server right
now, just to add hard drive!

I'm looking to find out why is this happening?

Then why do you say user is receiving the mails if it's supposed to be
delivered to PST and it's sitting on the server?  And why oh why is it
DELIVERED to a PST when you have a server?

Once again, PSTs have their uses but delivery point is not one of them.

User is out of office. Mail is delivered to .pst,
but now is sitting in the mailbox on the server.
There are limits, but the user is not over.

Wow, that Joe Blow and User X sure do get around.  I must be the only
Exchange admin who has never worked with them.

What's happening on that client?  Delivery to store or PST?  Limits?  Is he
over?

I don't have time for this kinda BS.

I understand that there is a care bear exchange list you can subscribe to.
Maybe you should try there...

Item #1: Email doesn't necessarily say what you mean
Item #2: Sure she can talk for herself.  However, we've been around here for
quite a few years so we tend to say what we want.
Item #3: I saw that, she's a very nice person and I would expect that of
her.
Item #4: I have been in that position before with the exact opposite results
you came up with.  I wonder why...
Item #5: Your point is what?!?  My mailbox is 700MB, I've seen others over a
GB.  Big Deal, I've got plenty of disk space and I would never nor will I
ever advocate the use of PST's with an Exchange server. 
Item #6: Apparently not.  Not likely.   Waaahh...
Item #7: Here's $.35, call someone who cares and ask for a refund.

RE: Newbie

2001-10-25 Thread Alex Alborzfard

I'm a newbie as well. I have the following problem:

I'm trying to set up the following:
Setup the public folders so that users can access it anonymously through
their browser.
I've seen this work on one of our vendor's website like this:

http://servername/exchange/root.asp?acs=anon

But when I do this on our Exchange 5.5 SP4, it gives me this error message:

Unable to render folder There are no published folders.

I have searched Technet and newsgroups for a solution, but with no success.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks

Anyway that is all about me, I look forward to supporting and being 
supported by this list.
