Exchange 2016 server clients randomly asked for password
Hi Everyone,
I have a problem that bugs me for weeks and I couldn`t find an answer to it.
I have 1 Exchange 2016 Server that runs on Windows 2016 Server
Everything looks good, clients connect fine but randomly they are asked to input the password, they try to input the password which is not accepted in any form or shape of the username, but if you click cancel and then in outlook bottom right corner where it says "Needs password" if you click on it it connects to exchange and works perfectly fine.
The behaviour is very random, it can`t be predicted, it can run fine for a full day or it can ask you 3 times in 5 minutes, I couldn`t establish a pattern on the behaviour, clients are running Outlook 2016 upwards.
Feel free to suggest anything, at this point I`ll try anything.
PS: I actually rebuild the domain controller and the exchange server,...
Error while disabling the arbitration mailbox in Exchange 2013?
Hi Everyone,
Im having this attached error while disabling the arbitration mailbox as part of the decommissioning steps for this Exchange 2013 server. With this, we cannot proceed removing the mailbox databases. I tried running these below commands then running that disable arbitration command again but same result. How do we move forward with this?
Get-Mailbox | Set-Mailbox -ModerationEnabled $false
Get-DistributionGroup | Set-DistributionGroup -ModerationEnabled $false
Get-DynamicDistributionGroup | Set-DynamicDistributionGroup -ModerationEnabled $false
Side question, will it work if we will just unmount the mailbox databases or they are required to be removed with "Get-MailboxDatabase | Remove-MailboxDatabase" command? Please advise.
Thanks in advanced!

Unable to Manage Add-in on Premises
Ther error message I receive is There was a problem loading your options. Please try again.
I am able to manage add-ins under a test account and other employees but for one employee who is high up in the organization, I am not able to access the URL to manage her add-ins.
I have tried multiple fixes.
1. I tried accessing the add-ins using the ECP.
2. I tried multiple browsers.
3. I' ve tried other systems
4. I've tried using the mailbox servers OWA url instead of the default organization
5. I've updated Office, they have office apps through O365.
6. I tried forcing the add-in using Enable-App in PowerShell.
7. I checked the information in this article related to the arbitration mailboxes.
8. I have looked at the attributes in AD for a user that works and my VP user and I've not found any red flags.
I did look at the following article ...
Exchange Online Archiving - What happens when you remove the license?
Hey,
I have a user mailbox that has EOA enabled with the license assigned to them. I recently converted their mailbox to a shared mailbox and checked that the Archive mailbox is still enabled and accessible, which it is.
I need to remove the EOA license but I can't find any information about what happens to an Archive mailbox after removing the license.
Does anyone know?
Cheers,
Redirect Email FROM a domain to a specific user
In Exchange 2010 I need to redirect ALL incoming email from sampledomain.com to user@mycompany.com.
What I have done is great a hub transport rule 'When the sender's properties contain specific words' and set those words for 'Email:@mycompany.com' -- this doesn't seem to be working.
Any suggestions would be helpful. 🙂
Distribution group members not receiving emails
I have a distribution group that I have recently added 2 users to. Both of these users are not receiving any emails sent to the specific group. I have checked the message tracking logs and the delivery report shows all the other users but those 2. I have also created a new DG with those users in and they don't receive any emails to that one either.

Does EAC Spam Filter control Outlook Junk Folder?
If you add email addresses In the O365 EAC Spam Filter does this also stop emails going into the Outlook Junk Folder as well or will users still potentially have to mark senders as Not Junk in Outlook as well?
Many thanks.
A mailbox is missing from Exchange Admin Center in hybrid exchange environment.
A bit of background. We have a hybrid exchange environment, and our AD syncs with Azure AD and Office 365. We have an AD user who appears in both AD and Office 365, is licensed, who has their own mailbox. The user can use their mailbox with no issues. The mailbox is, however, missing from our Exchange Admin Center... It just ain't there.
Any tips on how to get this resolved? I can provide more information, I just need to know what the relevant information might be.

Migrate from onprem exchange 16 to office 365
We have an on prem exchange server 2016, which is also our DC.
We also have a second DC(back up, set to replicate)
I was thinking to do a hybrid migration and then adconnect our second DC to Office 365 and ultimately decommissioning the old exchange server.
We have about 300 users.
Will this method help us move all mailboxes , public folders, rules, and policies to office 365 i.e. exchange online and then completely removing the old exchange while keeping DC2 connect/synchronized with office 365?
Would you recommend it or is there a better approach ?
We also have to plan on putting up barracuda in front of office 365.

Exchange 2019 Stopped Sending Email
Something weird happened to my Exchange 2019. All of a sudden it stopped sending out internal and external email. I haven't done anything to the Exchange box. It just stopped. I am using a smart host to send out emails. I called them, they verified everything is fine on their end. What I don't understand is why it stopped sending external and internal emails. I checked the send connector which looked fine. I recreated it just to make sure. I also checked SSL and re-issued it just in case. I checked the DNS settings, all look good. I am not sure what I am missing. Can anyone shine some light on this?
Thanks!!!
