Hi all,

I have the existing scenario:

A shared mailbox with name "shared" (messagecopyforsendasenabled=true) which forwards to a distribution group shared_group.

Users A and B are members of the group, and also have send as permission for mailbox shared.

The feature works as expected when user A sends as Shared, a copy of sent items is saved in both A and shared mailboxes.

The problem is that, user B also has a copy of a message send by A (as shared) in his personal sent items and vice versa.

So users do not only get a copy of the sent items they send in their personal mailbox, the get a copy of every email that gets send as regardless who sent it.

Im sure thats not expected behavior.

Can anyone advise?

Hi,

I have an Exchange 2013 Multi-tenant environment with several customers. Linked mailboxes are used in most cases (the obvious exception is for equipment mailboxes, etc).

As per Microsoft's guidance, all 'default' permissions on mailbox calendars have been removed, and a group is added (different group for each customer) with the 'AvailabilityOnly' permission.

The problem is that when scheduling a meeting in Outlook, the free/busy time is not available. If I change the 'default' permission to 'AvailabilityOnly', free/busy information is available.

I have tried creating the group in EAC and PowerShell. eg:

New-DistributionGroup -Name "CUSTOMER-NAME" -OrganizationalUnit "OU" -SamAccountName "CUSTOMER-NAME" -PrimarySMTPAddress CUSTOMER-NAME@EMAIL-DOMAIN -Type Security

I apply the permissions to the mailbox like this:

Add-MailboxFolderPermission LINKED-MAILBOX:\calendar -User GROUP -AccessRights AvailabilityOnly

I have confirmed that this is a universal mail-enabled group, but still no access. Is there something I'm missing? Is there a special requirement for linked-mailboxes?

Thanks

Hi.

Is there any way how to export (or at least list) all emails (from all mailboxes/users) greater than 20 MB from Exchange Server 2010 or 2013? I need to find all emails on my Exchange Server which are greater than 20 MB and then export them.

Thank you

Hi,

When I execute following command

Set-CASMailbox -Identity sun -OWAEnabled $false/$true

What happens?

When we use the above command, Is 2 components of the protocol settings gets updated 

[HTTP and OWA]

What is the relation between these tokens?

Thanks, Harish

I have recently installed a new Exchange Server 2013 and moved all mailboxes over to it. The old server has been takenout of service and removed from the domain. Before it was turned off was its certificate expired. On the new server appears at each log in a notification about the old certificate on the old server. How do I remove that notification?

Hello.  My organisation has one forest containing two domains. The two domains correspond to two different geographical locations.

In the domain I manage, I have two Exchange 2013 CU7 Standard servers in a DAG.  Both servers have both the CAS and Mailbox roles installed.  The servers are running Server 2012 Standard.  The two servers are on different subnets. One server, which is usually our active mailbox server, is at our primary data centre. The other server is at a standby data centre.  The two sites are separated by a WAN link. 

The other domain in the forest has one Exchange 2007 server, as well as two Exchange 2013 CU7 servers in a DAG.

On the Exchange servers in the domain I administer, an Event ID 4010 and an Event ID 2213 error will, intermittently, be logged at the same time. This happens only on the server that holds the passive copy of the Exchange databases. 

The source of the Event ID 4010 errors is listed as MSExchange Messaging Policies. The following is an example of the start of one of those very long error messages.

Transport engine failed to evaluate condition due to Filtering Service error. The rule is configured to ignore errors. Details: 'Organization: '' Message ID '<f1e9948247ce43b98c6d7c03bdc213dc@serverFQDN>' Rule ID '03c1629b-6112-441b-83e4-3a6d70ee1701' Predicate 'isInternal' Action ''. FilteringServiceFailureException Error: Microsoft.Exchange.MessagingPolicies.Rules.FilteringServiceFailureException: FIPS text extraction failed with error: 'Scan request timed out: STREAMS

The source of the Event ID 2213 error is FIPFS (Filtering Management Service). The following is an example of the Event ID 2213 error.

A scan request timed out.  ID={745d17ec-b298-47ea-8058-3f1c3499b404}, WorkloadID=<f1e9948247ce43b98c6d7c03bdc213dc@serverFQDN>, PID=8944

Running Get-ContentFilterConfig | fl shows that the filtering has the default settings, as shown below.

Enabled                        : False

ExternalMailEnabled     : True

InternalMailEnabled      : False

Our organisation has a third party malware scanning system.  That system is managed by the administrators of the other domain in the forest. They are also responsible for general forest-wide operations. Because of the third party system, I don’t believe that our organisation actually needs the Exchange content filtering, but if it can be left with the default settings without causing the problems identified in the errors I have reported, that would probably be ideal.

If you have any insights into the cause of these errors, and how to resolve them, please share them with me. Thanks.

Hello,

I continue to get alerts regarding Managed Availability (Exchange 2013 CU 9) within the event logs and they generate requests via SCOM. The issue is, I can't find anything to determine root cause. I'm not sure why they keep happening and everything I've found online just tells you to override it. I don't want to stop alerting on something if I don't know what's causing it. It could be something bigger in the future and I don't want to sweep it under the rug.

The primary alerts I see are:

The client submission probe failed 3 times over 15 minutes.

Can anyone assist with these or point me in the right direction to resolve these? Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Hello!

We have a multi-tenant Exchange 2013 server that we host multiple domains on. Due to this, we have to be careful when assigning permissions to any users on the server. I was able to work out allowing users to add/remove members of Distribution groups using this article: http://blogs.technet.com/b/rmilne/archive/2013/08/09/allow-users-to-manage-distribution-groups-without-creating-new-ones.aspx

Due to the setup of our current environment, once a distribution group is created, it has to have certain attributes modified in ADUC after it is moved into the proper domain, in order to be visible to the users in that particular domain.

I have verified that the users who are listed as owners on the groups can add / remove other users to/from the groups.

The current issue is peculiar. They can add / remove other DISTRIBUTION GROUPS to a group they are an owner of, and I have verified that it is listed in the group after they do it, but they cannot SEE the groups listed in the membership of the group.

Example:

User Tom is owner of Group A and Group B. He tries to add Group B to the member list of Group A. There are no errors when he does this, but he does not see Group B as a member of Group A after-ward. If I am logged in as administrator on ECP or OWA, I can see his change (Group B is now listed as member of Group A).

This happens for Tom in both Outlook and OWA.

Thoughts or suggestions welcomed!

Thank you.

Hi

We are experiencing strange issue with our Exchange 2013 database.

The company is running Exchange 2013 (CU8) cluster with DAG using 2 x mailbox role servers and 2 x CAS. Everything seems to be working fine except one thing. We have two databases DB1 and DB2. Usually DB1 is running on Mailbox Server 1 and DB2 in Mailbox Server 2 however issue still exist if we swap the databases between servers or run them both on the same server.

The problem is staring if we move a mailbox from the DB1 to DB2. ECP is reporting mailbox move as completed, however mailbox not being moved at all. It stays in DB1 and no error is shown in ECP. It's still possible to move mailboxes from DB2 to DB1 so it seems that it’s working one way only.

We can only see one error in Event Log that is related to the event:

Thanks for any help.

Dear Experts,

I have been tasked to propose migration of exchange 2013 CAS/MBX role from Site A to Site B. Site B is managed by different customer. I see there are two potential approach. 

1. Use DAG to replicate

Provision two servers at Site-B, install CAS and MBX roles.

here I'll be extending existing DAG. CAS/DAG are co-located. WAN link is 30 Mbps

2. Use Mailbox migration

Here powershell will be used to migrate mailbox. Total 135 mailbox

Provision two servers at Site-B, install CAS and MBX roles.

I'm comfortable with second option. With littleexperiencece around, appreciate if you can assist with your expertise

Thank you,

Preetam

We are moving users from Exchange 2007 to 2013. I would like to start a batch migration (see command below) well before I'll be ready to complete it. When the status is "Synced", can I perform an incremental re-sync before initiating the completion?

New-MigrationBatch -Name 'Test' -AutoStart:$false -NotificationEmails user@domain.com -AllowIncrementalSyncs:$true -BadItemLimit 9999 -TargetDatabases db01 -AutoComplete:$false -CSVData ([system.io.file]::readallbytes("C:\UsersList.csv")) -local

Thanks.

Hi to all,

this is my scenario in Exchange Server 2013.

I've 3 Organizational Units (domain): OU1 (domain1.com), OU2 (domain2.com) and OU3 (domain3.com).

Each one of these OU has mailboxes, and one of these mailboxes has role of "Recipient Management", so for example,admin-ou1@domain1.com for the OU1, admin-ou2@domain2.com for the OU2, ecc...

Here the problem.
When I access to https://mymailexchangeserver.com/ecp withadmin-ou1@domain1.com, all mailboxes of all OU are showed, but I want that only OU1 mailboxes will be showed and managable by admin-ou1.

How can I solve this problem?

In short, how can I create correct policies for the administrators of OU1, OU2 and OU3, to accomplish what I explained before?

Thanks to all!

Hello,

it Looks like EXMON is not supported for Exchange 2013. Is this correct or can i use it with Server 2012 R2 and Exchange 2013 (CU6++)  ?

Is there any alternative to check high log growth rate to see which user is responsable for this?

Thanks for Feedback.

best,

Martin

Hello,

on one of the Ignite Exchange performance session it has been told that "ExMon - Yes it is back!"

Please see the powerpoint too:

<cite class="_Rm">video.ch9.ms/sessions/ignite/2015/decks/BRK3180_Mealiffe.pptx</cite>

<cite class="_Rm"></cite>

Could we have a download link or the latest information about availability of the ExMon 2013?

thanks,

Please help me to diagnose the issue. 

Thanks in advance
