Exchange Online question: If I have users synced on-prem with dirsync and/or ADFS, if the AD user account is disabled, their Office365 license will stay intact, correct? They'll just be unable to access email right?

Correct and btw an interesting thing about dirsync: if the user is enabled, but password is expired and syncing with dirsync, the user will still be able to log in to OWA. So the user doesn't have to reset their password and won't even know she needs to until she tries to do some other AD related thing.

When a senior management person leaves our business my boss wants a copy of all their email "just in case". What is the best way to go about doing that? We're on Exchange 2010 with roaming profiles, redirecting all profile folders except AppData, so I'm guessing a PST in My Docs or on a network drive is no good.

Can you not just disable their AD account, convert their Exchange mailbox to a shared one and set the permissions on it appropriately? Am I missing something?

It's basically a forever thing with him and I don't want to junk up the system with a bunch of ancient mailboxes. Wouldn't that also still use up a license? In the time he's been here I can think of maybe 8-10 people I've done this with but this is the first one since we went to Exchange. The best I've come up with so far is exporting everything to PST then selectively importing Inbox, Sent, Deleted into a separate folder so he doesn't get a bunch of calendars and event reminders he doesn't need.

I'd give them a 1 year on the shared mailbox, then export to pst to archive. Or tell your boss to loving man up and get an archiver.

New-MailboxExportRequest -Mailbox <some user> -FilePath \\networkdrive\share\folders\email.pst -ExcludeFolders Calendar,Contacts,Journal,Tasks,Notes,CommunicationHistory,Voicemail,Fax,Conflicts,SyncIssues,LocalFailures,ServerFailures That'll create a copy of whatever the person has in their mailbox (includes dumpster data) at the specified location and won't include the excluded folders. Pretty much exactly what your boss wants. Edit: tables. Will Styles fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Aug 21, 2014 |

^^^ Also a good way to handle the pstsCpt.Wacky posted:And there's no problem with him accessing that over the network? I thought that was not recommended due to potential corruption of the PST. Generally the advice of not accessing PSTs over a network drive tends to be for people that are going to be using it a lot in their workflow. Specifically it has to do with the way Outlook writes data to the pst not working well over a network connection. From what you've said this shouldn't really be an issue since mainly he'd be doing searching and copying data from the pst. In my organization when we perform something like this what we do is export the file to a local machine (\\machinename\C$\folder\mail.pst) and then burn the .pst file to a cd/dvd (or create a self extracting archive if it's over the 4.7 GB DVD size and put it on multiple disks). Then my boss just holds on to these DVDs of pst files and we don't really need to keep anything anywhere on the network.

I just got off the phone with "Microsoft" regarding a support ticket with Office 365. Their reasoning that the SPF hard fail option doesn't block mail (it gives it a SCL of 5) is because too many people have incorrectly configured SPF records. I mean, that's why SPF has the option to soft fail, but what ever. So their official solution is that we need that transport rule to mimic SPF.

Is there any way to figure out why an email get's categorized as spam in Office 365? I'm receiving email from a certain domain that always goes into my junk email folder. Yes, I could just add the domain to my safe senders, but I wanted to find out why it's getting triggered as spam. Looking at the headers, they even have a correct SPF record so the headers has Received-SPF: Pass, yet for some reason, the email is getting a SCL of 5. The email also appears to have a DKIM-Signature header.

^^ We don't have Exchange out in the cloud just yet but we plan on using our existing Barracudas as the mx record location once we go into hybrid mode.kiwid posted:Is there any way to figure out why an email get's categorized as spam in Office 365? Not really. Since publicizing how EOP scores emails would trivialize the system so the exact reason a message is scored at a certain level isn't available. You could open a support request and they may provide you with some specific thing that is causing a specific email or set of emails to be scored a certain way, but you won't be able to find a detailed breakdown of why emails get scored the way they do. If you're using enterprise O365 you can create transport rules that score messages any way you want. So if you have messages coming in from a specific vendor for example you can set those to always be set to an SCL of 0 to keep it from being marked as spam or an SCL of -1 to prevent it from going to the junk mail folder in any circumstance.

Hey guys, I've been having a really irritating time with my iPhone connecting to my company's Exchange server, and my IT department hasn't been any help. The response has mostly been "you're entering your password wrong" which is definitely not the case. Symptoms-
I have had the same phone since November of last year and up until June of this year, it's been working completely fine. Around June, the IT department updated the Exchange server...I noticed because the webmail was completely different. Obviously something is hosed somewhere...do you guys have any ideas?

I tried the activesync test and it fails during "Validating certificate trust for Windows Mobile devices." The more info says "The certificate chain couldn't be built. You may be missing required intermediate certificates." edit: Oh, I disabled the SSL check and got the following "An HTTP 401 Unauthorized response was received from the server. This may be the result of invalid credentials or a configuration problem on the Exchange Server." My credentials are valid since I used them to log into my computer...and Outlook on said computer is working fine. TheWevel fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Aug 28, 2014 |

Your outlook on your computer may be authenticating in a different way than your iphone so that's not a great test. Are any other users having this problem? Coworkers etc? Also do you have a friend whose iphone you can use to test just in case? "b.)some other device is logging in repeatedly and it's locking out my account. " that's my instinct as well.

So an update on this, now that it's been a few days- I did a factory reset on my phone and it's totally fine now. We have to change our passwords every 40-60 days (I forget which) and I assume that whenever I put in my most recent password, it kept using the old one? That still doesn't explain why it worked sometimes and didn't others but like I said, it's totally fine now. I also haven't received any certificate errors since the reset. The IT department changed my password policy so now it's extremely long but doesn't expire so it should theoretically never happen again.

Has anyone ever uninstalled exchange where you uninstall it from add/remove programs and at it actually completes successfully? I feel like it's almost always easier in my environments (small, single-box exch) to just turn it off and manually remove references from AD. What am I doing wrong?

I use add/remove programs and only had issues with 2003 boxes where I had use AD removal. 2007/2010 have all uninstalled successfully for me. Removing manually can work but you have to be sure to remove all references. If you forget something it can cause all kinds of weird issues.

Hi! I'm a junior IT admin with really basic skills with server administration. I did 7 years in support. I just did my Windows Server Administration Fundamentals certification (MTA) and now I've the opportunity to climb the ladder and be a junior admin. Soon, we'll migrate Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 and there's a possibility that I'll be the one in charge of the migration (don't ask why!). But I know very little of Exchange (I know how to USE it, to create mailboxes, lists) but not how to manage it. So I need a really good book to learn Exchange 2013 from the perspective of a new user and not someone who already know Exchange. Can anyone suggest me something? Thanks alot! (Just so you know: I won't be alone is this but I want to learn more about Exch2013 before they throw me in this migration and ask questions each 2 minutes.)

Having done the same migration (though going between Exchange 2010 to Office 365 with DirSync) I honestly found the most complete information to be on TechNet. It's pretty dry, but also pretty up-to-date and complete. Also there tends to be a good number of more reading-friendly TechNet blogs out there for current topics. And the Get-Help <command> -full cmdlet for PowerShell is the BEST!  I do know a fellow admin got this book, Mastering Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, but I can't vouch for it myself.

The jump from exchange 2010 to 2013 will literally put you in new-user mode. The middling administration toolkit that was the EMC is gone and now there is Exchange Control Panel (light touch administration, new users and lists your familiar with) and Exchange Management Console (provisioning stores, managing public folders).

SBS will add a lot of garbage that's not even really related to its domain controller or exchange server status. For Exchange server you remove references in adsi edit. for domain controller google "remove orphan domain controller" or something like that. Pretty sure I'm forgetting a really important part so hopefully someone jumps in.
