Hey so what's up with this: in Exchange 2010, I have a user who has "full access permission" to a few mailboxes. They all show up in Outlook and she can email from them, and usually the mail she sends goes into her own personal sent items. However, one of the mailboxes is storing the sent items in that mailbox's sent items. How do I control this behavior? I tried both adding the mailbox to her Outlook profile via Account Settings->Advanced->Mailboxes, and by straight up adding it as a new Exchange mailbox in the existing profile. Doesn't seem to make a difference there.

If you're on Exchange 2007 or greater it's very easy to set up. If you're on Exchange 2003 you can still do it, it's just a little more involved.

Naes posted:EDIT: Well I did a bit of reading and it says that I need to enable Outlook Anywhere for the exchange account on the PC I want to use it on, only problem is there is no exchange account on that laptop. I have been TRYING to add the exchange account but it never adds, no matter what combination of domain/server etc I try. So basically, I can't use outlook anywhere until the account is added to the computer?? if the outlook client fails that's fine, it will fail and then you enable outlook anywhere, and it should work. So like it fails, and will say "work offline" / "retry" / "Cancel", pick work offline to get to the prompts. make sure to do BASIC AUTHENTICATION when setting up in the thing. should look something like this: (note the outlook anywhere address is probably your OWA address, but the exchange server address you enter earlier might be different... like mailserver01.company.local vs. mail.company.com or whatever)

mindphlux posted:my understanding of roaming profiles though, is that things like mail accounts and (windows explorer) folder view settings, et cetera don't roam. am I just wrong about this? even if the psts were on a shared drive, a support person would have to recreate the profile, direct it to the pst, and so on. Well first of all if you're on exchange why are you using PSTs. Secondly, I'm not sure about roaming profiles, but I am talking about folder redirection. So what you would do is have the Outlook profile set up automatically via GPO, and then once that's done all the other settings listed in the above link should Just Work.

I just started enforcing passwords on all activesync mobile devices and predictably everyone is complaining. I want to increase the timeout on this to say, 4 hours before they have to enter a password. Looks like the limit is 60 minutes in the console, any way to override that? Another question: anyone notice android being completely retarded when it comes to this? I had one issue where an android user couldn't get email after policy was enforced, but he already had a password on his device. Another user had the swipe-code thing and that didn't count as a good enough password for exchange (or wasn't recognized -- this one prob isn't android's fault)

Rollup 3 for SP2 is supposed to fix it but we haven't installed it yet. No, it has to do with every time she moves something from one mailbox to another (she monitors multiple mailboxes), she gets the "synchronization log" email in the "sync issues folder". My resolution was to just remove that folder from her "unread items" search folder

Lovie Unsmith posted:Well she did refer to the Autocomplete, yes. However I do know for a fact that her and another user do have contacts. How do we ensure they're available in OWA? I agree with Mierdaan's guess but in case that's not it, the other possibility she has them in a PST and not in her actual Exchange mailbox. How to ensure they're available in OWA is log in as her to regular Outlook and make sure the folder under Username-->Contacts has what she needs. If it's there it'll be everywhere.

Lovie Unsmith posted:I remoted into a user's computer and saw for myself. The contacts they'd like to be available to OWA are $Company$ Contacts in Public Folders. Ah okay so they are not really her contacts. Here's the news: While you can designate other folders as "address book" folders in actual Outlook, no such luck with OWA. The way I see it you have a few options: 1. If she's the only one using the contacts, move them to her own contact list 2. Have her use real Outlook on her laptop and connect via Outlook Anywhere 3. Remote Desktop 4. Move all the contacts to the GAL 5. Open the public folder via OWA and do a search from there (I think you can do this in 2003)

All we really want is for the email addresses/names currently in Public Contacts to be available a la Autocomplete (nicknames) in OWA - or at least available to choose from, they'll live with typing them out in full if they have to. Are there any steps to make this happen without seriously altering their GAL or AD? We're talking over 500 contacts. There's probably some GAL import script or something like that you can use

Syano posted:I have a scenario I am trying to wrap my head around. I am about to move an exchange 2007 single server installation over to a Exchange 2010 single server install. In order to keep things transparent for OWA and active-sync users I just need to make sure both servers are accessible over the internet and then... what else am I missing? 1. Make sure the receive and send connectors on the new server are good. 2. Get your ssl certs renewed (assuming the new server will have a new internal fqdn).

On an exchange 2007 server. I have a mail queue of like 70. Mail is going through, just very very slowly. Routing mail through our spam filter (postini) but I'm not seeing any serious activity on that side. Internal email goes through immediately. the "mail flow troubleshooter" doesn't detect any issues. What's going on?

This is a shared contacts list with another user on the same hosted exchange domain. Nice av. 1. How is she printing the contacts - is she going to "Contacts" in Outlook and then file->print? What version of Outlook? 2. Are these additional contacts viewable in OWA? 3. Does the other user see the additional contacts?

Not a technical question but a more human relations question (I have autism): How do I get company leadership to embrace the idea of mailbox storage limits and how do I get them to actually reduce their mailbox sizes? I can show them the numbers (how much it's costing to back up) but I feel like they won't care. There are no mailbox size limits in place at the moment.

I know literally nothing about third party mail archiving solutions so I will look into this... thank you

Our 300GB store takes about 4 hours to do a full backup on, and that is with old LTO-3 tapes, and minimal effort into making that backup "speedy." Yeah I think you're right. Looks like backups are running at about 500mb/minute for the exchange job when other jobs are at 1500mb/min. I'll check this out......

blackswordca posted:I have a customer with some outlook syncing issues. The mailbox will only sync once per day in the morning. If I delete and recreate their profile, or recreate the OST it will sync the first time then fail afterwords. On a hunch i checked the exchange server logs and found multiple EID: 9646 assosiated with her account. how many folders are in all these mailboxes? I know that the OST runs into problems when you reach a certain ridiculous number of folders. to test, can you remove the 5 other accounts, and see if it still fails all the time

Morganus_Starr posted:"As a result of these architectural changes, there have been some changes to client connectivity. First, RPC is no longer a supported direct access protocol. This means that all Outlook connectivity must take place using RPC over HTTPS (also known as Outlook Anywhere). At first glance, this may seem like a limitation, but it actually has some added benefits. The most obvious benefit is that there is no need to have the RPC client access service on the Client Access server. This results in the reduction of two namespaces that would normally be required for a site-resilient solution. In addition, there is no longer any requirement to provide affinity for the RPC client access service. Second, Outlook clients no longer connect to a server FQDN as they have done in all previous versions of Exchange. Outlook uses AutoDiscover to create a new connection point comprised of mailbox GUID, @ symbol, and UPN suffix. This simple change results in a near elimination of the unwelcome message of “Your administrator has made a change to your mailbox. Please restart.” Only Outlook 2007 and higher versions are supported with Exchange 2013 Preview."

I setup a vacation responder for an employee who is going to be gone for like a month, but i need to also forward inbound e-mail to 2 different user accounts while the vacation autoresponder is active. Just want to advise not doing this, because inevitably the two users receiving the emails will reply to messages not knowing that the other person also responded. I would recommend giving the users access to the original user's mailbox so they can see what has been viewed/replied/forwarded. Also doesn't clutter up their inbox. But if you have to do it, use theperminator's method.

Having access to our correspondence on the go is pretty important to my company, but I like the idea of having all our correspondence for a specific project in one location for anyone to access (hence using a public folder). I don't think public folders are the solution here. Do you have a sharepoint site or license? I hate to recommend sharepoint but that's probably going to be the best way to replace paper documents while being able to access over the phone, and enforce whatever insane records retention policies you probably have.
