I wanted to setup an auto-reply to a recipient in Outlook 2013. We have a vendor that emails us service requests, and we have to reply with something along the lines of 'we accept this request'. Pretty simple. But Outlook will only reply to the same sender once if you're using a rule.

We also forward the message to another email address which parses the info out and creates a ticket, marks the messages as read and moves it to a folder called 'Requests' - that part all works fine.

Is there an Outlook plug-in or something that can do this kind of stuff?

I'm pretty sure you can use a transport rule, but you should cross your fingers and hope they don't set up something similar on their side. There's a reason why OOO requests only trigger once. If you have a ticketing system in place, is there any good reason you don't just send directly to that and have that send the "request accepted" response?

Unless I am completely misunderstanding your question, what you want is a Client Access Services (CAS) server.

Now can you get me a job with AWS? :v:

Oh come on, it would have been a perfect :smuggo: moment.

I don't know what the approved method for handling that problem is when using subdomains, other than like Thanks Ants said, using a SAN cert that includes both FQDNs, but I would approach the problem similar to how I would approach it when using a .local domain. Split-brain DNS - an internal DNS server that has a mycompany.com domain that points to the internal IP of MX1.int.mycompany.com.

Or possibly NAT loopback?

I think either solution would work. I'd go the NAT loopback route first, easiest to set up with the least amount of drawbacks.

Because users can't be trusted to do anything with information.

Use DMARC. Use whatever Barracuda's version of Impersonation Protection is.

It is like SPF where if the other side does not have it set up you cannot leverage it. That is where something like Mimecast's Impersonation Protection comes into play.

Yes, do not send mass mailings from your email server.

Alright, bit of a hail mary as I am out of my depth here.

Troubleshooting an issue that I don't have much info on. We're hybrid Exchange and apparently 3 old users are coming back and when they got re-provisioned, something went wrong to the point where on-prem Exchange thinks it's an O365 mailbox and there's no mailbox in O365. Confirmed the account was synced to O365 and is properly licensed. It's not a matter of it having been provisioned in O365 first, as when I try to get the ExchangeGUID there it doesn't see a mailbox. I noticed that there are some extra X500/x500 addresses, but I don't think that would cause a mailbox not to create in O365. I can't attempt to migrate the mailbox either direction because of the confusion.

I don't need to save anything in anyone's mailboxes. I have a feeling they were migrated from O365 to on-prem when they were retired back in the day, then that database was offlined at some point. Is there any good way to just tell on-prem Exchange "this is an on-prem mailbox now" and then migrate it to O365 again? Or somehow force O365 to try creating the mailbox again?

Delete the Exchange GUID stuff in AD if its there and rerun whatever script you have that provisions a mailbox and makes it a remote mailbox.

This seems similar though?

The link you shared has an Exchange GUID in O365, which is something we were missing.

As to your comment, is deleting the Exchange GUID in AD enough to have Exchange no longer think the user has a mailbox?

We ended up deleting these accounts and recreating them. That fixed the problem, but at the time I was trying to figure out exactly what caused it. Oh well, next time!

That's a way better solution than embedding it into the message. We don't use such a banner currently, but I would be way more accepting of this than the current way it's done. Thanks for sharing.

[Edit: Just noticed it's not available in Outlook for Windows yet. Kind of odd. I am sure that is coming soon, will hold off until then.]

The whole thing has put me into "HTTP/S and SMTP gets blocked inbound for our Exchange server now. All it does is management and internal mail relay."

A ticket came in: Allow Access to Outlook Web Access only from US

And to think, it could be as easy as a click of a button.
