Re: [Exchange] Exchange 2010, Outlook 2013 - cannot remove delegates

[Kurt Buff]

So, I come into the office today, and in the first email I see she states
that she was able to remove the delegates, and they're now gone.

Didn't get a chance to use the page you sent.

I'm going to bookmark it for future use however.

I wonder if there was some slow replication on the DCs, or inside of the
Exchange databases that caused the delay - she's in the UK office with a
DC, but her mailbox is in Redmond.

At any rate, thanks again for your help, I'm good to go.

Lost my join.me session, so can't do anything with her client directly ATM,
but would still like to hear what I might have missed.

Re: [Exchange] Exchange 2010, Outlook 2013 - cannot remove delegates

[Kurt Buff]

Thanks again.

I've run into the problem before, but using 'set-aduser username -clear
publicdelegates' worked, though not with so many delegates (and especially
so many 'not found' delegates), and this time that command didn' workt,
which puzzled me greatly.

This looks like a way more thorough approach, and I'll work on it tomorrow.

Re: [Exchange] Exchange 2010, Outlook 2013 - cannot remove delegates

[Kurt Buff]

Good ideas.

However, grantsendonbehalfto is null.

Her account looks remarkably like mine (my mailbox is for a non-privileged
user - we don't assign mailboxes to privileged accounts).

I'll work with her tomorrow on the calendar and tasks permissions.
