I haven't been checking this mailbox and just noticed the last message received was 10/01/03. My archive goes back to 11/2001 though. I have an issue with Outlook 2003 that I did NOT have through the Beta's. Now that I am running the RTM on my laptop I have noticed that I am missing Calendar items. This follows other folders as well, built in or added to synch. OL will report when On Line that it is in synch. I can audit a folder and see the store and local are not in synch. For example; If I am out for several days and work offline and add entries in my Calendar for billable work. I return to the office and connect to the LAN | work on line and synch. Go to another PC on the LAN in the same domain and open OL 2003 as me, some of those entries are missing. Workaround: on the laptop | open any folder | press Shift+F9 to force the folder to synch. ALL items are synched. This works for all folders. I have been doing this to make sure my offline changes are in the store. I have already removed | rebooted | re-installed Office 2003, no change.

RE: Outsourcing email?
I agree, I wouldn't want to run all my internal only mail through a service provider for spam/virus filtering. As for outgoing mail and inbound mail, why make it easy for someone to run a man in the middle intelligence gathering operation against your company? Running all your mail through one easy to access service point makes it very easy for some disgruntled service provider employee (who I don't have any control over), to make copies of all the mail and then black market it. Yes, a M-i-T-M attack can be run on the net, but in order to gather the amounts of data necessary to make it worth while, you need a choke point. You couldn't get enough information about my business if all you did was M-I-T-M my mail going to and from Cisco, or some other vendor like that.

RE: Diskeeper and Exchange
Hey all; Lori: I run RAXCO's PerfectDisk on my servers, mostly cause it has the capability of running ESEUTIL from a GUI, which is easier to explain to some people rather than a command line. But I digress. Unless you are doing a lot of purging and expanding of your Message database, then once you have a steady state size, and have it physically defragmented, you won't have much need of a disk defragmenter, at least not for the Exchange message database. Defragmenting the transaction log drive is useless, as these files are written and purged on a daily basis. However, if you are building a server, or moving a lot of users and/or data into a current MDB so that it grows beyond it's internal whitespace you will need to at least analyze the disk for fragmentation. Also, should you run ESEUTIL /D, you will need to analyze the disk again since ESEUTIL /D essentially rebuilds your EDB file, and should you not have a large enough contiguous block of empty disk space, the new EDB file will end up fragmented once again. To bottom line it for you, defragmenting an Exchange database drive is a one time thing, unless you A. Expand the EDB file, or B. Run ESEUTIL /D which gives you a new EDB file, which MAY need to be defragmented. You do not need to run a disk defragmentation utility on a daily basis.

Well the process would be to rebuild the current seven disk RAID 5 array into a 7 disk stripe set with a second 7 disk stripe set as the mirror.

Imagine what would happen if someone got ahold of the document that had everyones passwords. If you are using Exchange (valid assumption I think since this is an Exchange list), then you are using either NT or Windows 2000. Why can't you have your users manage their own passwords? Every client that logs in to the domain should have the ability to change their password - even 9x clients can change their passwords. This is not something that you should be doing or should have to do - now of course that is only my opinion and you are free to do as you like, but I would rather choke myself than have to maintain all my users passwords for them. Does HR know that you maintain a list of everyone's password? Does your corporate lawyer know? If not, you better make sure they do. I realize I am probably not being helpful to what you are wanting to do, but I (and probably most of the others on this list) have never run across a sysadmin who insisted on maintaining a list of all his/her users passwords.

RE: Mass Mailings
ListServ from LSOFT.COM is a good product. You set it up on it's own machine and subdomain (lists.Sanantonio.gov) and let it chug. One of the BETTER qualities of this product is that you can tune it so that a domain only gets one message for the number of people subscribed, rather than one message per recipient. (i.e. twenty users are listed at BELLSOUTH.NET.. Only one message gets sent to BELLSOUTH.NET) You can also chunk the traffic so that you don't flood out your ISP.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.
I don't blindly recommend anything, except maybe my wife's three cheese pasta in a pot. But on the technical side of things, I had a BE installation that would pop up at times and fail a backup telling me the Exchange database was corrupted. Management told me to prove it using something else besides the BE report. There were no Event log indications, user's were able to send and receive mail, but when we attempted to move the mailboxes to a replacement machine in the same site, the wheels fell off, the tranny fell out and the engine just blew a cork. The last good backup had migrated out of the rotation and we ended up loosing about half the data for about 125 users. Management listened afterwards.

RE: Exchange 5.5 Server hammer-age.
Just to give you a comparison, I'm running a Dell PE 6600, 2 Gigs RAM, dual 1.4 GHz processors, 900 users spread over 3 Message Databases and two RAID arrays. We still get the flag. I get the flag when I'm sitting still too, no manual activity on the laptop that I'm using. The flag is set by Outlook and is an indication of slow response by the Exchange server. The timeout for the flag can be set in the registry, or the flag can be turned off all together. The only thing I've found so far is that it's an incentive to performance tune your Exchange server and then look for other reasons for slow response time. The flag can also pop up when the workstation is doing some background work, like rendering a graphic and trying to update free/busy time on the Exchange server at the same time. It's an indication of performance problems, just not specific as to the cause.

Our server is older (Dell 6300 with Dual 400 MHZ processors and 1.5 GB of memory. 700 users).

Almost all those users receive the following message the first time they logon Outlook is retrieving data from the Microsoft Exchange Server Exchange. You can cancel the request or minimize this message to the Windows taskbar until Outlook closes the message automatically. Some of them receive the message more frequently. Maybe the two issues aren't related, but I thought I'd start here, since it's the only thing that's changed recently. Is anybody else having issues using XP Professional with Exchange 5.5? Thanks.

Once their piece is in place and our upgrade and migration from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2003 starts, how long will it take us to convert these 5000 users.

RE: Rehome all public folders - recommended method?
The quick answer would be NO, you don't need to touch the Replicas tab after this. However, after all the changes are made, I would wait 24 to 48 hours for things to stabilize and then go back and spot check to make sure that you have replicas where you want them. Inside a site, you really DO NOT need to have replicas of public folders on each mailbox server, unless the network links between the two servers are crowded and/or the have the capacity of plastic straws.

I guess what I was thinking really didn't get down on the paper clearly. You should follow this procedure: In the Exchange admin program, go to PUBLIC FOLDERS, ignore the system folders for now. Find the PF branch that you want to move to the other server in your site. Find the top level folder of that branch. Open the properties, go to the REPLICAS tab. Make the changes to the replicas that you want on this folder. Once your changes are completed, go back to the GENERAL tab. Click the box marked propagate these properties to all subfolders. Check the box that says REPLICAS. Now before you click on the APPLY button be warned... WHATEVER YOU DID AT THIS LEVEL WILL OVERWRITE ANY SETTINGS THAT ARE PRESENT IN FOLDERS FURTHER OUT ON THE BRANCH. Be very very sure that you want to overwrite any replica information on lower level folders. Click the apply button. The system will give you a clock and show the folders of the branch where your changes are being applied. Set your egg timer for 24 to 48 hours. When it dings, go back to the same folder you accessed previously, open the properties and this time go to the ADVANCED tab. Set the drop down menu for the server you now want to be the home server of this branch. Go back to the GENERAL tab and click the propagate these properties to all subfolders box. Think hard, do you really want to do this, then click the APPLY button. You now have changed the home server of that branch of public folders. Note: if any folders in the branch that you have just changed are homed in other sites, and restrict administrative changes to their home site, you will get an error popup telling you of the problem.

Error message processing Rules
Good morning to you all: I was hoping that someone here might be able to point me towards a solution to the following problem: I have a user that is attempting to create a rule to run against his own mail account. The quantity of rules he has now is unknown, but I don't believe that he's bumping the 32K limit. Using Rules Wizard, he creates the rule normally, but when he attempts to run the rule against his inbox, while in Rules Wizard, he gets the following error message: This rule could not be created. Check Folder permissions. When checking the folder permissions, they are set the same as a folder that works just fine. I'm going to be researching Microsoft Online as well, but am posting it here first due to the lead time. Thanks again.

RE: Rehome all public folders - recommended method?
I guess what I was thinking really didn't get down on the paper clearly. You should follow this procedure: In the Exchange admin program, go to PUBLIC FOLDERS, ignore the system folders for now. Find the PF branch that you want to move to the other server in your site. Find the top level folder of that branch. Open the properties, go to the REPLICAS tab. Make the changes to the replicas that you want on this folder. Once your changes are completed, go back to the GENERAL tab. Click the box marked propagate these properties to all subfolders. Check the box that says REPLICAS. Now before you click on the APPLY button be warned... WHATEVER YOU DID AT THIS LEVEL WILL OVERWRITE ANY SETTINGS THAT ARE PRESENT IN FOLDERS FURTHER OUT ON THE BRANCH. Be very very sure that you want to overwrite any replica information on lower level folders. Click the apply button. The system will give you a clock and show the folders of the branch where your changes are being applied. Set your egg timer for 24 to 48 hours. When it dings, go back to the same folder you accessed previously, open the properties and this time go to the ADVANCED tab. Set the drop down menu for the server you now want to be the home server of this branch. Go back to the GENERAL tab and click the propagate these properties to all subfolders box. Think hard, do you really want to do this, then click the APPLY button. You now have changed the home server of that branch of public folders. Note: if any folders in the branch that you have just changed are homed in other sites, and restrict administrative changes to their home site, you will get an error popup telling you of the problem.

RE: Still no PF data replication!
Regarding the OAB; you need to change the location for this, not by replicating it to another server, but by changing the location where it is generated. If you are on Exchange 5.5, this is done in the Site Configuration container. Schedule+ free/busy is generated on a local basis by the users, the only time you need to replicate a Sked+ f/b folder is if you want the information on a different site. Check the replication schedule in the INFORMATION STORE default settings, see if it is set to NONE. If it is, you may want to change this. And if all else fails, you can shut down the Information store, Rename PUB.EDB to something like PUB.CHESTY.USMC and restart the Information store process. The folder will be recreated, it will be empty, but any information replicated to other sites will backfill, free busy information will recreate as user clients publish the information and the OAB will regenerate; by default, once per day.

Okay... After reading this something popped into my head (no it wasn't a flying floppy disk). See if you have a host table on OLDServ that has a different IP address for NEWServe than what's actually assigned to the new server.

WMI problem
Good morning you all: When I attempt to set up some type of monitoring on my Exchange 2000 servers (three servers in three separate routing groups, one admin group, all are Exchange 2K SP3; Win2k Server, SP3) using the Exchange System Manager Tools function, I get the following error: An error occurred during a call to Windows Management Instrumentation ID No: 80041001 Exchange System Manager Now I have looked through the on line KB's without success, the error number brings up something having to do with media player, and a search on the error phrase returns nothing. I was hoping that you people who know more about this than I do can point me in the right direction. Thanks.

RE: Server capacity
You will need to get new hardware. We just retired a dual Pentium 166 256 Mbytes RAM, NT 4.0; sp6a with Exchange 5.5 running strictly as an OWA box. We constantly got complaints about slow response times, one minute plus from the time you entered your password to the time the OWA mailbox opened was the norm. If you are going to have a fairly heavy mail load, plus shared everything else, and since you're not having to pay license fees, get the money to pay for the hardware now. Like the FRAM filter commercials said, pay now, or pay later. The pay later in this case will be lost mail, server down time due to thrashed disks, hardware incompatibility problems and peeved users that bypass the mail server all together and cobble together a sneaker net. Just my humble opinion.

RE: Exchange 5.5 Distribution List Clean Up
Do an export of the DL's to a CSV file, review the extract for any high level users (GS-10 or up, O-5 or above, or the rake of Chief Petty officer or above); mark these with a do not delete flag. Any lists that have zero users, delete outright; if the list has three or fewer members, hide the Dl from the Address list and see who screams. For the high level users and the remaining lists, assign an owner and let them take care of it through Outlook. Do a one time recapitulation of the membership of the distribution list addressed to the distribution list so the members can see what lists they are on; just like the radiomen have to on a yearly basis.

I thought that this would mean that ServerB would then carry the load of public folder requests, should the public store on ServerA not be available. This however doesnât appear to be the case. If I dismount the public store on ServerA, and then try to access the public folders, I get an angry âunable to display the folder (ServerA).â Does ServerA need to be turned off altogether for B to answer requests for the public folders? Or is there just something I missed somewhere in setting this up. I know in Exchange 5.5 there was the concept of folder âhomingâ but thatâs gone now isnât it? All I did was use ESM to go to the top level public folders, set up the replication, and then propagated it down. The pub store size on ServerB is indeed large, suggesting that all the data is thereâ¦but itâs just not answering the bell⦠Thanks I advance. .+--xm ,)r(ື \æªb=!6 0 à§zÇ1r,:.Ë mé[hy\z[,)rÉZ Zvh'+-iÙ¢2 G( â²Úh²Ø§PÛiÿü0ÂÌÇ(úÞ²«qïÞÅÈ_j¨m Ü+Þ²m§ÿðà 0Êy ¢oì׬yªÜû j·!jÊS¢éì¹» ®Þ¨¥¶^j÷ÅÈZ¥²Ì2G(L\ ©àx¸¬µ§fyb²Ö)ìÃ)är
RE: public folder replicas and redundancy
Okay.. I made the assumption that Server A and Server B were in the same routing group? Are they? If not, does the connector that goes between the two routing groups allow referrals across the connector?
