Hello, 

We have Exchange 2003 . We have exchange 2013 in another AD domain. We want to configure Shared NameSpace between two exchange Servers. I have cofnigured on Exchange 2013 side using send connectors. 

I want to configure email flow like this. 

between exchange 2013 and Exchange 2003. 

If send emails from Exchange 2013 user to Internet, should go via 2003 to internet.. 

What should i configure on Exchange 2003  ?

How to start Microsoft Exchange Transport and Microsoft Filtering Management Service (FMS)?

Hi, 

In the Exchange ECP you can go to the server and then transport limits.  Here you can set the option to notify the sender if a message is delayed, we do so after 1 hour.  IT also needs to be notified if their is a delay to any messages how can I do this?  Is there a way IT can be notified when the queue is backed up because we need to take measures sometimes usually one message is stuck in the queue and hanging stuff up.  

I also asked this in the Exchange Online forum, but that seems to be more focused on users than administration.

I am attempting to setup a test of S/MIME in a hybrid Exchange Online scenario.  I have a functional on premise AD CA on a DC which is syncing (DirSync) with Azure/Exchange Online.  I now need to create a "Virtual Certificate Collection" by creating an SST to upload.  The MS article states:  

"As an administrator, you can create this SST file by exporting the certificates from a trusted machine using the Export-Certificate cmdlet and specifying the type as SST. For more information the Export-Certificate cmdlet, see the Export-Certificate reference topic."

What are "the certificates", and more importantly what is the syntax for the export-certificate cmdlet's -Cert parameter.  The examples in the export-certificate documentation have paths which look like: 

cert:\CurrentUser\My\EEDEF61D4FF6EDBAAD538BB08CCAADDC3EE28FF

Hello everybody,

we are running exchange 2013 with cu1 wit 2 CAS (ex01 and ex02) and two MBX-Servers (ex03 and ex04). We are already in a call there with Microsoft. Anyway i'd like to describe the existing Problem here.

We have 4 Databases productive, that only deliver mail (any mails, with/without attachments) when being mounted on ex03.

As soon as they are mounted on ex04 mails with attachments from the outside and from the inside are not being delivered to users Mailboxes and stay in the queue with a '452 4.3.1 Insufficient system ressources' All disks have enough free space, no corresponding eventlog showing a problem because of throtteling. Mails without attachments run just fine.

In the message-tracking Log we see a 'recipientthreadlimitexceeded, intra-organization SMTP Send Connector'. With MS-Support, we tweaked the msexchangedelivery.exe.config with different values for

and Edgetransport.exe.config with

This did not resolve the issue.

We disabled the Anti-Malware-Agent in the Transport. There is Mcafee on the system (as is on the others) with proper exclusions (the others run just fine with that config)

We set tnef to false. I don't know if this caused the issue on the system, setting it back to true did not resolve the issue.

We have all the productive db's now running on ex03. When adding a new DB 'test' on ex04 and putting one test-mailbox on thar db we are able to reproduce the problem without Userimpact.

Well, anyone has an Idea? As i said, MS is right now analysing a trace. I'll keep this thread updated.

Good Afternoon,

      My Customer is running Exchange 2013 CU5 that has a transport rule that is supposed to reject any email from a particular user as that user is no longer with the company. The transport rule rejects the message, BUT, it does not show the Custom DSN. It shows the default message:

Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups:

user@domain.com Your message wasn't delivered because the recipient's email provider rejected it.

Diagnostic information for administrators:

Generating server: EXMBX01.DOMAIN.LOCAL

user@domain.com Remote Server returned '< #5.7.169 smtp;550 5.7.169 TRANSPORT.RULES.RejectMessage; the message was rejected by organization policy>'

I have looked up the transport rule in Exchange:

Get-TransportRule "User Reject" | fl *Reject*,Description


RejectMessageEnhancedStatusCode   : 5.7.169
RejectMessageReasonText           : This E-MAIL Address is no longer in service. Please Contact
                                    nglaser@domain.com for assistance
SmtpRejectMessageRejectText       :
SmtpRejectMessageRejectStatusCode :

Description                                  : If the message:
                                                   Is sent to 'User@domain.com'
                                                   and Is received from 'Outside the organization'
                                               Take the following actions:
                                                   Set audit severity level to 'High'
                                                   and reject the message and include the explanation 'This E-MAIL
                                               Address is no longer in service. Please Contact
                                               nglaser@domain.com for assistance' with the status code: '5.7.169'

I tried setting up to separate external DSN messages and tried both with the same results:

Get-SystemMessage | ft -a -wr

en\External\5.7.169 This E-MAIL Address is no longer in service. Please Contact nglaser@domain.com for assistance.

I tried to change the SmtpRejectMessageRejectText on both Exchange servers and got the following error:

Set-TransportRule -Identity "User Reject" -SMTPRejectMessageRejectText "This E-MAIL Addre
ss is no longer in service. Please Contact nglaser@domain.com for assistance"

Hi,

I published my Exchange 2013. But when I configure my exchange server by autodiscover, it does not show my exchange server name in Server Settings. Instead it shows the following information

02772f84-w6h7-37o0-z3gt-433gfddfb@domain.com

and instead of showing my name it shows my email address in Username.

I cannot configure my email address manually by giving server name and exchange proxy settings.

Can you help me how can I change the settings to show my Exchange Server name in Server Name of Outlook and my display name in Username.

Regards,

Hi all,

   I am using Exchange server 2013, my task is to create Service , that need's to  monitor continuously for new mails of all Mailboxes in my server. if any user got new mail i need to get that Mail Subject, Mail Body, Sender Email Address [From emailId] .  

Limitation : I don't have Passwords of mailboxes , so i gave all mailbox access permission  to one user , then i completed this   service using below code.

 But now, Client not willing to give Mailbox Permissions to one user because of security problems.

How can i do this without passwords and without giving permissions to other user ?

i don't want all mailbox access , i just need only access Mail Subject , Body and Sender mail address .

How can i achieve this ?

Process i follow

=> I created new user in server , and then i gave full permissions of all Mailboxes to newly created user[ex: james] in database level.

     i use below command for giving permissions in database level.

Get-MailboxDatabase -Identity <Database Name> | Add-ADPermission -User <User> -AccessRights GenericAll

 => using below code i am searching unread mails of all user Mailboxes and then getting Subject, body and Sender Email            address . here i am have list of users,

                ExchangeService service = new   ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2013);
                service.Credentials = new WebCredentials("james@admin.com", "password");
                service.AutodiscoverUrl("james@admin.com");          
 foreach (Object obj in usersList) // here i have Mailbox users list in usersList 
             {
              var userMailbox = new Mailbox(obj.user); 
              var folderId = new FolderId(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, userMailbox);
        SearchFilter.IsEqualTo filter1 = new SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(EmailMessageSchema.IsRead, false);

                 var itemView = new ItemView(50);
                var userItems = service.FindItems(folderId, filter1, itemView);

                         foreach (var item in userItems)
                         {
                             item.Load();
                             var senderEmail = ((EmailMessage)item).From;
                             var subject = item.Subject;
                             var body = item.Body;
                         }
             }

I have no AttachmentFilterEntry for .zip, but encrypted .zip-files were rejected. Unencrypted .zip files arrives the mailbox. The problem only occurs only, when the zip-files came from unix - with windows-generated .zip there is no problem. When i disable the Attachment Filter Agent all is OK - but i have no Attachment-filter functionality.

I have updated the Edge Server to Exchange Server 2013 CU5 - no luck.

How can i receive encrypted zip-files without completely disable the Attachment Filter Agent ?

Thanks

Hey guys,

In Exchange 2010, I'm trying to forward every e-mail from X sender to the corresponding department. In order to do this, I have to get that user's OU and then send it to OUsupport@mydomain.com.

I already have all the mailboxes created, I just need to know how to add a rule that looks at a sender's OU and forwards the message to the right e-mail address.

Many thanks in advance!

Best,

Alex

Hi,

I am running Exchange Server 2013 and after a reboot all works fine for an undetermined amount of time, then for some reason the receive connector stops working, well I presume it is the receive connector. Using the Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer I get the following error (See Below). As far as I can tell only a reboot of the Server will resolve this error as I have tried stopping all the Exchange Server's services & restarting them and did not fix the problem. As you could imagine rebooting the server during the day is almost impossible but also not being able to receive emails is very painful. Any advice would be helpful as at this point I am fresh out of ideas except a re-install and hope it doesn't do it again (not really an option). I have also deleted the receive connector & re-created it.

Hi,

we have some transport rules created on Exchange 2010 SP2 U4 that for each message sent to a specific mailbox the message is bcc'ed to some internal users. The rules work all fine, but we have a case were in some occasions a transport rule is not getting applied and the message is not delivered to the bcc users but only to the initial recipient mailbox. The transport rule in question has Priority "0" and we have no conflicting trasnport rules

Message tracking log is not so helpful since it just shows that the message delivered successfully, whereas in the case that the rule is being applied message tracking shows the message being deferred to the other recipients as well.

Unfortunately we were not able to reproduce the issue since it occurs in an ad-hoc basis therefore enabling pipeline tracing  will not be of much help.

Please advise, what logging shall we enable on what level to be able to identify the cause and the location of the logs generated in each case (Event Viewer or C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Logging or C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\TransportRoles\Logs).

Thank you very much in advance.

Hello,

I have three servers running exchange roles. Two of my servers are running both CAS and MB roles and one is running Edge Transport role. The two are are part of a DAD. I would like to access OWA via the Internet. Since my Edge server is configured on my DMZ, I configured my firewall to forward OWA access requests to my edge server, but I can't access OWA. I wonder what the right configuration is please. I should I configure my firewall so that my clients can access OWA in a safe manner. Thanks.

Hi

We have a hybrid environment Exchange Online and are using Exchange 2013 as hybrid server. We have an application that submits emails to Exchange using SMTP and sends emails from noreply@smtpdomain.com. Since almost half of our user base is already in Exchange Online, many of these emails which are generated on-premises need to be routed to Exchange Online. This configuration has been working for months. On 24/06/2014, the emails from this application stopped getting delivered. 

On examination of message tracking logs, I found SMTP FAIL events - excerpt below.

ConnectorId             : Outbound to Office 365
Source                  : SMTP
EventId                 : FAIL
InternalMessageId       : 39560943768623
RecipientStatus         : {[{LRT=};{LED=550 5.1.8 Access denied, bad outbound sender};{FQDN=};{IP=}]}

Doing a search for the error in recipient status did not return anything but doing a search for "access denied, bad sender" did return results that suggested a scenario when a user in Exchange Online would be prevented from sending outbound email after having been identified as sending spam - see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-GB/library/dn458545(v=exchg.150).aspx

It seems our on-premises Exchange 2013 server has enacted a similar block on our noreply address which sends out a lot of emails. I have been able to confirm that if the 'from address' is changed to something like noreply123@smtpdomain.com, all emails from the application get delivered successfully.

I now need to find out how I can unblock our noreply address so these emails can be sent with the original from address.

Appreciate all help I can get on this one.

We have a new Exchange 2013 server and moved a few pilot users from the 2010 environment to it.

Everything seems to work OK but we just encountered a strange issue. One of the users turned on his automatic out of office replies and when people send E-mail to his mailbox they receive a 'Delivery delayed' e-mail. All mails to this account seem to be stuck in the queue (shown in the Exchange Toolbox – Queue viewer) but they DO actually arrive in his Outlook.

The error message in the queue for his messages is: Recipients:  User@domain.com;3;3;[{LRT=};{LED=432 4.2.0 STOREDRV.Deliver; Agent transient failure during message resubmission[Agent: Mailbox Rules Agent]};{FQDN=};

 After turning off his out of office replies, the queue emptied instantly, and no duplicate mails arrived in his mailbox. After turning it back on the queue started filling up again with new mails.

Other pilot users have the same issue.

Has anybody seen this issue before? I checked space on the drives and there seems to be no issue there (so no back pressure issue).

thanks!

Hello everyone, 

I have just launched my own exchange 2013 infrastructure on server 2012 R2. everything works within the organization. however, send or receive emails to outside on the internet is not working. here is the info and what i have done so far:
