Script New Mailbox with Permissions

August 27, 2015, 7:20 am

Hello,

We have a department that needs shared mailboxes configured on a regular basis.  I've got this all scripted and working, expect for the part where I try to manage permissions to to the Inbox.  The add-mailboxfolderpermission cmdlet fails for about 5 minutes after the mailbox has been activated.  This is all being sent to the same domain controller, so this isn't a replication issue.  My google-fu as informed me that this is just the way it is.  It takes time for everything to be available before it can be managed.

I was hoping anyone had some good suggestions for working around this so the entire build can be scripted instead of having to wait 5 minutes and manually configure the final step.

Thanks!

Retention policy on expired items with Exchange 2010

August 27, 2015, 9:30 am

So here's a mystery that not a single place on the web was able to help with so hopefully here:

I built a 1-day-delete-deleted-items retention policy to clean my users' deleted items folder. I did the same thing but for 7 days for the sent items.
In both sent items and deleted items folders I have messages that show "message has expired".
However, in the sent items I have messages that shows "message will expire in 6 days, to keep it longer make sure to choose a different retention policy" so from a retention policy perspective I am good to go (I use Outlook 2010).

2 questions though:
1. how do I apply a retention policy on already-expired item? because I really don't want to manually ask my users to empty their deleted items!
2. where do I see if the retention policy actually kicks in within Outlook 2007?

Thanks!!!

Exchange 2013 : Microsoft consistency

Grrrr, spent two day trying to work out why I couldn't import emails to a users account despite all max send/receive limits being at 30.

Just realised that everywhere within ECP it's set in MB, expect for the recipient page, where it's KB, so he could only import 30KB, not 30MB as I thought.

RTFM @ myself :(

Powershell: No Provisioning Handler Installed

The Environment: Exchange 2013 / Office 365 Hybrid

The Goal: I'm trying to create a Powershell script to automate the process of creating an AD User on premises and creating a mailbox on Office 365.

The Problem: I can create the user using New-ADUser cmdlet, DirSync to O365, and creating a Contact record allows communication between the two. But if the Contact record isn't there (and my script, for some reason, isn't consistent in creating them), they can't get emails from external sources. I suspect using the New-RemoteMailbox cmdlet would be a more proper way of doing it, but when I try to use that command, I get a "No provisioning handler is installed." message and I can't find any useful information about it for the life of me. Other cmdlets work, such as Get-RemoteMailbox.

The section I'm working on goes like this:

How do I find an exchange resource address?

Hello!

Maybe this is not possible, but I am in the process of setting up a SharePoint Foundation 2013 site and it looks like the built in calendar app can connect to exchange resources. I'd love to do that, but I'm having a heck of a time figuring out where you get the address for each individual resource from.  Anybody know?

I tried clicking "find" but all that did was link the calendar to the logged in users personal calendar. 

Any ideas?

Outlook / Exchange Mail Stuck In Outbox

Anyone know why someone's email would get suck in outbox running on Outlook / Exchange 2013 with Exchange showing as connected in status bar below?

User has periodic freezes (not repsonding) of Outlook then unfreezes. In this case it froze after pressing Send/Receive all and got the prompt to restart so we restarted outlook. Most messages in outbox were gone on restart and the last couple we watched dissapear from outbox, but none every appeared in Send box nor were the emails actually delivered.

Now wondering how to find the emails!

I posted this as in all my years I've never seen this behavior. User's PST file is over 22GB! That's huge! Thinking that may be part of the problem?

I'm not the Exchange specialist but is there somwhere on the server to look for emails that didn't get sent? My gut is it's a local problem and the emails never...

I have a few users that when they reply only to outside persons emails they get the following error. Remote Server Returned '554 rejecting banned content. Its seems they can send and receive mails to these outsiders but when they reply to the outsiders that's when the bounce back happens. We use exchange 2013 and barracuda spam firewall. The confusing thing is it also says the generating server is our server. Sorry exchange newb, trying to learn and think logically on how to troubleshoot this issue.

Exchange Circular Logging With a Mail Archiever: Yes or No?

So here's a question for all the Exchange nerds out there: If I have a message archiver which picks messages as soon as they received, sent and deleted. do I still want to enable the circular logging?
We started implemented a Barracuda Archiver box which pretty much picks every email out there that was ever sent, received or deleted to and from our company and I was wondering if I should be worried about turning the circular logging on in Exchange.

Any thoughts?

Strikethrough lines on unread emails Outlook 2007

I have a customer that is having an issue with Outlook 2007. Unread messages are showing up with the strike through lines. This customer has to keep a lot of his emails for work purposes and was trying to delete everything from January 2015 back. So now all of those messages are marked for deletion but I cannot purge because of the newer messages that are unread. It seems to just be random new messages, not all. If I open one of the marked messages the strike through goes away but then returns as soon as you close and reopen outlook. Today I decided to see if this could be a problem with GoDaddy since that is where their email is hosted (don't ask me why but they are loyal to godaddy) and discovered that there is not a single strikethrough on any of his 14,000 emails. I am sure this is just some IMAP setting that I am not remembering...

Project: Migration from Exchange 2010 to 2013.

Status: 90%

Symptom: OAB refusing to load with Outlook (all versions).

1: When writing a new email you start to type in the name and the autocomplete shows under it. If you click it and try to send this happens:

If you just ignore it and type the entire email in manually it works and sends just fine.

2: When tryin gto re-download the OAB (Send/Receiev, send receive group, download OAB) this happens:

Steps taken to try to resolve: Created a new OAB and assigned it under ECP to the new exchangeserver. Reset IIS. Ensure SSL Cert was installed correctly and tested via Exchange connectivity tool.

I am at a loss here.

Exch2013 external replies are not reaching internal sender

I've got an interesting problem with one of the exchange 2013 servers that I manage. Very long story but all info is possibly relevant. We started noticing outgoing email flow problems (ie vendors/customer were not receiving emails from my customer). Searches on RBL for our outgoing server IP revealed nothing. Our Sendbase reputation was ok, SPF and PTR Records were all in check. Just for the heck of it, we entered our domain in the RBL check on MXToolbox and discovered we were listed on Sorbs only. The IP that was flagged actually belonged to a web server that hosts our website. We don't own the server nor have control of the IP. It was chosen by our web designer. Upon further investigation using sucuri.net, we discovered the website was compromised with 3 pages that contained external links to supposedly malware. Going on the website...

Is there a way to automatically purge junk email in exchange 2013?

I have an onsite ex 2013 sp1 server, with most local access being via outlook, we have just migrated from, and switched off 2007 (which did have a Mailbox Manager rule to clean out junk mail)

I have seen reference to a Retention Policy for ex2013 , but (unless I have misunderstood) this seems to work on specific mailboxes.

What I would like is something similar to the mailbox manager rule which will work on all mailboxes on the server, including those added in the future, to clean out any mail in the "junk" folder over 30 days old.

Is there a way to do this?

Exchange 2010 Send connectors and internal relay?

Hi, due to some migration and transferring mail accounts from other domain and other mail system I am trying to find a solution how to route a messages between Exchange server, POP server and Lotus Domino server.

I am trying to set it up on Exchange server in Send connectors where I have an option of adding multiple servers to a single connector. Currently it set up so it routes all the emails for example: local.net domain to Domino server. I am considering adding a POP server to the list. Would that work, is Exchange "smart" enough to do the routing if email does not exist on one server to send it to another considering the fact that one is Lotus Domino and other is POP server.

Also, I know that Exchange has an option of flagging emails, would that solution be acceptable in this case since the emails that are going to POP server have...

Exchange 2010 email forwarding

I have set up forwarding on a users email account to forward to both his contact (external) and his internal mailbox.

If I test from internal (from within our domain) it forwards to both his internal mailbox and external contact

If I send his internal mailbox and email from external however (from my gmail  to his domain email), it does not forward that email back out to his contact, he only receives it internally?

Is this normal?

Is mail forwarding meant only for internal domain use?

Exchange Message Size Limits and Scan to Email

Currently running Exchange 2010. 

I’m looking into a Scan to Email issue from one of our MFPs and I think it has to do with message size restrictions. I know message restrictions are applied in a few different places (Transport setting, Send/Receive Connector, and even message restrictions on the user mailboxes themselves).

Which setting(s) applies to internal mail so that we can configure the size limits when Scanning to Email?  Maybe I need a better understanding of the different exchange message limits.  Thanks in advance.

Auto reply not replying to all smtp address.

Hello,

I'm having an issue with auto replies in Exchange 2010.  Auto reply is configured for external addresses and works.  The problem is it doesn't respond with an auto reply if sent to other email addresses configured for a mailbox.  For instance, I can send a message to an email address jdoe@mail-domain.com and it will reply.  If I send a message to the same mailbox but to a different smtp address for that mailbox, jdoe@maildomain.com, it doesn't reply.

Any ideas why it doesn't respond to all the mailboxes addresses?

I've set up a Hub Transport rule with the action "rights protect message with RMS template" when messages are sent to a certain distribution group.  When sending to the distribution group, I get a non delivery e-mail with the error "#550-5.7.1 Delivery not authorized, message refused. 550-5.7.1 Exception encountered: RightsManagementException. 550-5.7.1 Failure Code: RacAcquisitionFailed. 550 5.7.1 Please contact your system administrator for more information. ##".  I can successfully send a "do not forward" message from Outlook so RMS appears to be configured properly.

Hey Everyone,

Here is a little info on what I have going on. We have an exchange environment with over 500 distribution lists and we have about 400 employees. Many DL's are nested and some are not used and some have not been uses in x number of months ect. We need to weed out the unused DL's and also restructure to current used DL's. I was hoping some one who has done a similar project would have a little knowledge they could drop on me that may make this a little easier and keep me from making a mistake or twenty. 

Thanks for all your time and help
