I'm using AADSync. When I force run the dirsync (by running the task manually from task scheduler) it shows as completed successfully. However when I log in to Exchange Online I do not see changes I made reflected. Example changes: new user created not showing up (to assign a license to it), or changing the display name of an existing user. I googled this and apparently there are some attributes that will prevent a sync on a user, but I checked all attributes and they do not apply to me. Any suggestions? snipe

Check AADSync tool (they changed the name of it) for any errors in the sync. Most of the time it is an alias that is the issue.

I am building a new Exchange 2010 server on a Windows Server 2008 R2 box. Our current server is having issues because of the hard drive space. My plan is to bring up this new server and move everything over to it and make the current server go away. The current server has all roles installed on the one server (except Unified Messaging which we don't use). I have setup the new server and got all the transport rules and such setup but I am having an issue. Yesterday a user said a bunch of his emails disappeared. When looking into this I noticed that the missing emails went to the new server but there does not seem to be any certain characteristic to the email that went there. I also am not sure if it was just this one user or if others are affected and just don't realize it. A couple things that I know are a problem that I am not sure how to resolve. One is that the 2nd server has its own mailbox database even though all the mailboxes are still on the 1st server except 2 that I moved over. Those 2 are just test ones that I have. Is there a way to copy the original database over to the new server and use that instead of having 2 different ones? The second thing is I do not have a CAS array or DAG setup at all. It looks like I cannot do a DAG because I am not running Server 2008 R2 ENTERPRISE edition, just standard. I assume I can get away with not having that especially if I am going to be at a single server again when completed. I don't know why there was never a CAS setup as I did not setup the 1st server. Will creating the CAS solve the other issue? Can I create one after the fact and not have it mess everything up? I am still learning all this Exchange stuff but I am getting better at using powershell and EMC.

When you say emails disappeared, do you mean new mail he tried to send or expected to receive was gone, or do you mean old messages in his mailbox were moved? Where were they on the new server? Transport rules are org-wide, so you shouldn't have had to set them up on the new server at all. Unless.....what version of Exchange is the old server?

wyoak posted:You don't need DAG or a CAS array if you're only going to have one server at the end. You don't want to move the original database over, it'll be easier just to move mailboxes (they stay online during the move). You do need the CAS role though, that's what lets people connect via Outlook or OWA. Both are Exchange 2010. Sorry I meant Receive Connectors under Hub transport. There are separate ones on each server and things were broken until I put them on the 2nd server. As for the disappeared emails they were ones he received and saw in the morning but some time around 1pm the were gone. I used tracking log explorer on each server to search for emails to him and they both came up with different stuff. I do have the Client Access stuff setup just not the Array part. The user in question is a remote user and would be checking his emails from Outlook in a remote office and with his phone and OWA sometimes. When I looked in his mailbox from my computer I could not see the emails either. I am sure this is something I did wrong. I just cannot find anything searching for it. I currently have the 2nd server shut off, because i do not want it eating any more emails, until I can figure out what to do to fix things.

It's entirely possible the two are unrelated. It's hard to imagine a scenario where just installing a new server causes messages to be deleted from a user mailbox, especially if this isn't a DAG setup. I'd look at his clients and their settings. He may have archiving turned on, or POP on some device, etc.

If it was something on his devices wouldn't it break things even when i only have the original server up as I do now? Things only break when the new server is online at the same time which makes me think that something on that server is configured wrong.

Have you guys been able to block ECP externally? All Settings by users on OWA open the ECP so we were wondering if there's a way to block ECP but not user settings. Should we just block all admin users on the TMG? Also, what solution do you guys use to synch the Outlook and OWA signatures? We have a couple of ideas but you might just have what we need  .

Before the DoD released a cloud mail addendum to DFARS 7012, pretty much anyone doing anything remotely related to a DoD-managed project or subaward was looking at either a cloud-to-ground precipitation project or dumping sponsored work altogether. The loving waterfall of tears this created in higher education was incredible. Many had gone into the cloud to eliminate mail admin positions, found they needed mail admins anyway because  doesn't mean magical no-work-land, hired on less desirable talent, and were then finding they had to either get an on-prem system back or tell all their PIs (research professors) who have even a dollar coming from a DoD contact since Fall 2014 (you'd be surprised how quickly this becomes a majority if you trace award trails) that their labs are being either closed or sold off to a private entity. For this and a few additional reasons (concerning definitions historically giving higher education an edge in managing research), small and medium fish have been simply saying "gently caress it" and closing out big patches of their research portfolios. I know personally of two instances in the last five months where, had the college/institute not gone to cloud mail and found themselves needing to move close to half their staff back to on-prem with all the licensing and salaries that involves, literally dozens of teacher-researchers wouldn't be looking at the portion of their salaries that were direct billed to the DoD and wondering what the gently caress they're going to do now that their department had to pick up the slack (read: dismissal in many cases).

One advantage a web-based EAC provides is that you can partition Internet and intranet access from within the ECP IIS virtual directory. With this functionality, you can control whether users are allowed to have Internet access to the EAC from outside of your organization, while still allowing an end user to access Outlook Web App Options.

This might be the newbiest question but here goes; Practically every time anyone uses Outlook 2013 it'll prompt the user for login credentials, and sometimes it'll constantly come back until you've either clicked it to death or restarted the machine. We were originally using Exchange 2010 then migrated to 2013 (on prem) onto a new server, and it's been a bit of a bumpy ride but things are more or less all stable. But am I right in saying that Outlook shouldn't even have to ask for credentials and just pick them up from your login session right? It's pissing all of the staff off and I was told "You'll only have to login once then it should be done", I'm thinking there's some kind of authentication shenanigans going on.

Yep, I've even seen it first hand that even when ticked it doesn't work. I've seen it been cancelled, and then clicked the tiny "Need Password" text at the bottom right corner which gets Outlook to work. I've seen the dialogue box come back again and again then stop when a machine is restarted. I've gotten everyone to change their user name entry to Domain\Username instead of username@domain.com which seems to work. It's such a random occurrence across the board, even my own machine prompts for login every day I load it up. You would think it's the age old problem of users being stupid but I've seen it happen repeatedly, when we were using Exchange 2010 the only time you'd be challenged for login credentials is if your AD password expired while you were still logged in.

It really sounds like you don't have your authentication methods setup correctly. I went through the same thing when migrated 15k mailboxes from 07 to 13 except I fixed it before deployment.

I had that symptom when a user had a shared calendar attached to their outlook of a user that no longer existed. Mostt times if the old user was removed the issue was gone, sometimes I had to configure the setting to not cache shared mailboxes before it went.

I'm working on a remote move migration from Exchange 2010 to Office 365 and I'm running into a problem with the hybrid configuration. There are about 4 domains that need to be in the hybrid config. I have the main domain working (thank god) but the other domains are causing the Update-HybridConfiguration cmdlet to fail. I get "Execution of the Set-RemoteDomain cmdlet had thrown an exception. This may indicate invalid parameters in your Hybrid Configuration settings. The operation couldn't be performed because object 'Hybrid Domain - <domain>.mail.onmicrosoft.com' couldn't be found on '<our DC>'. at Microsoft.Exchange.Management.Hybrid.RemotePowershellSession.RunCommand(String cmdlet, Dictionary`2 parameters, Boolean ignoreNotFoundErrors)" My question is why the gently caress is it looking at our DC? It should be looking at our Exchange box where that RemoteDomain resides. I guess what I'll do is try migrating a test user who has one of the other domains as their reply address and see if there is a communication problem between on premise and Office 365. The domains are already on Office 365 and verified. Maybe I'm just making myself crazy over nothing. Well, I guess I'll report back later on. snackcakes fucked around with this message at 05:36 on Oct 20, 2015 |

It needs to be part of the hybrid configuration so that messages from on-prem users can be redirected appropriately. Have you tried just adding it in manually if the hybrid wizard is failing?

Couple of questions from the user's side: Just migrated to O365 with Outlook 2013 on Win8 Ent. I have a lot of rules like 'when message is from "Bob", move to "Bob" subfolder' However, when a new message is in the subfolder, it doesn't trigger the 'unread email' icon in the taskbar (a message in the Inbox, will). This is affecting business!!!11!! I created a rule to trigger a desktop alert on all new messages, but that only give a pop-up, not the persistent taskbar icon http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/46379/microsoft-outlook-new-mail-desktop-alert-for-subfolders/ Any way to get the icon working, to stop me missing new emails? Secondly, because we have Windows phones I face a similar issue - the phone won't monitor subfolders and display them as new emails. I've made a kludge of setting a rule to make a copy of all incoming emails to a special 'phone' folder and set the phone to monitor that folder (rather than the inbox). Then in autoArchive, I set the subfolder to delete all emails after 2 weeks. It works, but is there a slicker way?

If I have an Office 365 non-Enterprise sub (so no Exchange license) using AD Sync, are there any good options for managing users? At the moment I'm just doing everything through Powershell or the ProxyAddress attribute in Active Directory Users & Computers, but it would be good to know if I've missed anything obvious. Is the best option going to be to move to an E3 plan and get the free Hybrid Exchange 2013 license and install the CAS role to get the Exchange Admin Center?

I can, it's not a huge problem. If there was an obvious way that I'm missing to get the email address tabs in those dialogs then I would be interested in hearing it. At the moment I'm setting up aliases using the ProxyAddress attribute with SMTP for a primary address and smtp for aliases.

Have you tried just adding it in manually if the hybrid wizard is failing? I was too ashamed of myself to come back and explain the resolution. So...I decided to stop freaking out and run some tests. Since these were just alias domains and they were already in Office 365 I found that I had no problem e-mailing between on premise and O365 with the non-primary domains. Basically I just wasted my time for a while when I should have tried that first.

So I've hit a wall with tshoot on exchange 2010 SP3. It has to do with activesync, specifically attachments in activesync. It seems like with android e-mail, ios mail, and even outlook on the ipad, activesync connections cannot receive attachments bigger than about 50KB. I've looked everywhere for limits to activesync, and I've checked our web.config settings for maxRequestLength, and made sure that the exchange management gui has no limits set, and it's still broken. I've researched this for 2 days, and found that it could be a resource consumption issue but I never see RPC queues go above like 5 or so (my sources say above 70 is bad), and cpu/ram/disk space is all good on both the mailbox database server and the client access server. My gut tells me to ignore this since we're in the middle of an email migration to Google Apps, and just tell users to use IMAP instead. Any ideas?

Is there any conceivable reason you would still want in house Exchange now for new deployments? I'm sure I'll catch some flak for this, but it seems like everyone should just make the move to Office 365 at this point.

Also, the leverage Microsoft has over you when you don't even have some kind of a hybrid model is huge. They can hike the prices all they want, it's all in the cloud anyway and the cost to bring it back on prem needs to be considered. I consider hybrid to be a good compromise, always have a plan B.

All green. It's so strange. I don't see anything in the event viewer, and we have narrowed it down to around 100Kb for when the attachements fail to load. It also doesn't happen in IMAP, or accessing mail through OWA. I've come to the conclusion that e-mail is just the worst and this is karma for me talking poo poo to strangers at the bar last weekend during homecoming.
