Cant create Shared Mailbox

Windows Live ID "user@<domain.com>" already exists as a managed Windows Live ID. To use the existing
Windows Live ID, use the UseExistingLiveId parameter.
What can be the issue..?

Are you trying to create a shared mailbox in Office 365 or on an on premise Exchange?
Yes... and I'm having the same problem.

Office365- I created shared mailboxes for a user- they show on web but not on Outlook2013

I created shared mailboxes for a user- they show on web but not on Outlook2013-
If the user logs on to office365 web - I can see the 3 shared folders- but if when she opens Outlook she is not able to see them-
Do they - should they be manually added ? How ?
Thanks !!

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Not sure what exactly you mean by "created shared mailboxes for a user", by default, Outlook automatically loads all mailboxes to which the user has "Full Access" permission. So please first check if you have granted the right permissions
for that mailbox to the user.
When I say "By default", I mean you didn't disable the Outlook Auto-Mapping service. If you did, then the shared mailbox will not be automatically added to the user's Outlook profile. So please have a check on this:
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2646504
Also, please note if the shared mailbox was just created, or the user was just added as a member of that shared mailbox, you probably will need to wait for a few hours for the shared mailbox to appear in the user's Outlook folder.

Unable to create shared mailboxes from a csv file

Hi,
I have a list of 130 shared mailboxes that I must create. So I created a CSV file like this:
Name,Alias,OrganizationalUnit,Database,UserPrincipalName
John Smith,jsmith,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,[email protected]
Mark Flone,mflone,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,[email protected]
ETC.....
The list is ready and it is saved.
import-csv C:\path | New-mailbox -Shared
the Error is the following:
"Cannot bind parameter 'Name' to the target. Exception setting "Name": "The property can't be empty."
I went into my spreadsheet and Trimmed everything, then saved and still the same error result.
Then I tried the following:
import-csv C:\temp\sharedMailboxCreationTest.csv | ForEach-Object {New-Mailbox -shared -Name $_.Name -Alias $_.Alias -OrganizationalUnit $_.OrganizationalUnit -UserPrincipalName $_.UPN -Database $_.Database}
The Error:
"Cannot bind argument to parameter 'UserPrincipalName' because it is an empty string."
What am I missing here?
Alexis

You have UserPrincipalName column heading in the csv file so this should be your cmdlet.
import-csv C:\temp\sharedMailboxCreationTest.csv | ForEach-Object {New-Mailbox -shared -Name $_.Name -Alias $_.Alias -OrganizationalUnit $_.OrganizationalUnit -UserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName -Database $_.Database}

SAP installtion stopped - error cant create shared memory

Dear All,
Greetings!
We are trying to install SAP ECC 6.0 IDES system on Windows 2003 x64 Server and DB2 9.1, during the process of installation - in the step of Start Instance. The sapinst Gives Up! the process since the enqueue server is found in stopped state when the instance tries to start up.
I found the below given error message from the Developer Trace files of the enqueue server.
[Thr 1384] Sat May 09 18:21:13 2009
[Thr 1384] *** ERROR => ShmDelete: Invalid shared memory Key=34. [shmnt.c      719]

To note - we had a virus attack on the server recently and an Anti-Virus tool was used to clean the server, after that I found most of the SAP folders in Read-Only mode.
I suspect any causes of the same for the above mentioned ACCESS_DENIED error. Currently I have allocated 28GB of swap size, but the SAP instance is not able to create a shared memory from the same I hope.

Please help me with your suggestions for the workaround,
- How will I be able to enable the swap size of the server to be used by the SAP instance?
- Is this the effect of the anti-virus or an aspect in windows server to change the folders and files to read-only after a virus attack?
I have tried the possibilities of adding more shared memory, removing the shared memory and restarting the OS and assigning back the same, but these dint prove useful.
Kindly help me with your suggestions.
Thank you

Vineeth

Hi,
I would suggest you to go to run > services.msc
now try to manually stop / start the SAP<SID>_<nr> services. are you able to start it properly? If you get error here, that means SAP services not able to start as it has permission problem.
login with <sid>adm & reregister the service by running sapstartsrv.exe in <drive>:\usr\sap\SID\sys\exe. after you give the parameters and press ok, wait for sometime for the 'success' message.
once its done, then start sap in MMC.
another thread talks about similar kind of problem.

Opening a shared mailbox in Outlook 2013 (office 365) returns "Cannot Expand Folder" error.

Hi!
We've just upgraded from our old Domino email server to Office 365 E1 and running an on-premise Exchange 2013 hybrid server.
In Outlook 2013, when trying to expand a shared mailbox, It asks me to enter my outlook credentials. Trying so doesn't work and it continues to ask repeatedly. If I click cancel, I get the following error:
"Cannot expand the folder. The set of folders cannot be opened. Microsoft Exchange is not available.
Either there are network problems or the Exchange server is down for maintenance."
The error only occurs in Outlook 2013 and it happens to all staff who are using Outlook 2013. Shared mailboxes are accessible in Outlook 2010 and OWA with no issues.
I have tried recreating profiles, removing and re-adding permissions, disabling auto-mapping. I've tested with creating shared mailbox in Exchange Online and on our hybrid server.

Hi,
Check if the kb below matches your scenario:

Office 365 Shared Mailbox in Exchange Admin

I am creating shared mailboxes in my Office 365 account and I want all the users on my domain to have access to all of the mailboxes. Is there any way I can set this up automatically, instead of manually adding each user to each shared mailbox and
then having to remember to add all new users into each shared mailbox?
Also is there anyway I can only allow them to have View-Only permissions on these mailboxes?
Thanks

Hi Lauren,
the cmdlet add-mailboxpermission is avaliable for Exchange Online, too.
http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/bb124097(v=exchg.150).aspx
So you can receive a list for all your users mailboxes, and then you run add-mailboxpermission to all of them.
$mymailboxlist = get-mailbox -resultsize unlimited
$mymailboxlist | foreach-object {
                 $resourceMailbox = $_
                 $mymailboxlist | foreach-object {
                         $permittedMailboxAccess = $_
    add-mailboxpermission -identity $resourceMailbox -user $permittedMailboxAccess -accessRights FullAccess -InheritanceType All
In that example script you may ignore warning messages that a user already had access to her own mailbox.
You may add logic to the code to avoid that :)
If you do not know how to connect to Exchange online (required to run that code) please see

Shared Mailboxes Send on Behalf

I have created shared mailbox and Grant Send On Behalf permission for John.
John sends email on behalf to shared mailbox but messages look like John send message himself (Send AS). But John have only Grant Send on Behalf permission not SendAS.
Exchange 2013 CU2.
Truly, Valery Tyurin

Hello,
I have similar issue but in reversal, I have a shared mailbox. I want to send an email on behalf of shared mailbox but I do not want the recipients to see the email has been sent by "User on behalf of shared mailbox". I have been added as a delegate
with editor permissions in shared mailbox. If I send an email (From option: shared mailbox) from my outlook, receiver can see that the email has been sent on behalf. I do not want this. It should be visible as if the mail is sent from shared mailbox.
I saw some suggestions that adding permissions on exchange server will help but I dont know where to check in the system (perhaps I dont have admin rights). I have a colleague, they are just new, they dont know about email box too. My old friend who left
has configured the outlook for these new ladies. For them it is absolutely working fine. I dont know what he did but would not have used exchange server (as we dont have admin rights).
Please help!

Krishna

Shared Calendar Send As Behavior & Legacy Shared Mailboxes

Ok Exchange Gurus, here's the scenario:
Shared Mailbox 1 - Legacy Exchange 2007 shared mailbox with the SendAsItemsCopiedTo attribute set to SenderAndFrom, then migrated to full Exchange 2013 environment, with no Exchange 2007 servers left.
Shared Mailbox 2 - Exchange 2013 created shared mailbox.
Shared mailbox 1 still exhibits the same behavior when a user sends as that mailbox, the sent item is put in both the Shared Mailbox 1 sent items folder, as well as the user's sent items folder.
Shared Mailbox 2, the sent item is only placed in the user's sent items folder, and not the Shared Mailbox 2 sent items folder.
I know the Set-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration command has been removed from Exchange 2013, so obviously, Powershell isn't the answer to modify shared mailbox 2 to act the same as mailbox 1.
My question then is, if Shared Mailbox 1 was migrated to Exchange 2013, that attribute still HAS to be somewhere for Exchange 2013 to still deliver the sent item to both the user's mailbox and the shared mailbox. I've checked every attribute on Shared
Mailbox 1 in Powershell, AD, ADSIEdit...and cannot find anything. Again, Exchange 2013 still has to read this attribute SOMEWHERE to know that it has to deliver the message to both sent items folders.
A big virutal beer will be sent to whomever figures this one out!!!
Thanks!
Statik

Hi Statik,
I find the solution from a similar thread. Information as below:
I found out that i have to use the registry for this:
DelegateSentItemsStyle, type REG_DWORD and set it to 1 (default is 0 or not present). HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\<version>\Outlook\Preferences
More details to see:
Where is Set-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration / Get-MailboxSentItemsConfiguration?

Is there a way to create a rule that sends and Auto Response for a shared mailbox?

I have a shared mailbox set up that receives emails that are sent to 3 different addresses:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
I would like to create a rule that would send an auto response when someone emails one of these addresses. However, I don't want an auto response sent to [email protected] so I can't just set up an "out of office" reply for the mailbox.
Is there a way that I can create a rule to send an automated response to 2 of the 3 addresses?
Nate

Hi
we can enable the shared mailbox in ADUC and create Outlook rules for it in Outlook to achieve it. please follow these steps:
1. In Active Directory Users and Computers, right-click the shared mailbox and click Enable Account.
2. Configure the Outlook account for the shared mailbox in Outlook.
3. Click Rules > Manage Rules & Alerts.
4. Create a rule like the following format:
Apply this rule after the message arrives
Have server reply using a specific message
Except if the subject contains specific words
Select exception(s) (if necessary) of the Outlook Rule - (“except if from people or public group“)
5. Apply the auto reply rules for this shared mailbox.
Then users can receive auto reply of the shared mailbox except the exceptions we have set when they send messages to this shared mailbox.

How do I get reminders to show up from Tasks I have created in a shared mailbox?

I have tasks set in a shared mailbox. They have reminders set in them. I do not get the reminders. Running Windows 7, Office 2010 Plus.
I have also tested this with meetings from the Shared Calendar and it does not work.
Is there a setting that needs to be changed or something I can do to start getting these reminders, as well as the ones in my own mailbox? Or even better have an automated e-mail sent to me when one of these tasks become due?

I have found my way to this topic also through the outlook forum and am surprised that you guys are sending Gabe H back to the outlook forum once more... this looks to be a little bit like we users are dealing with a bureaucratic government desk?!?
Anyways...
In our office we have the same issue... reminders and notifications don't work from a shared calendar. Also, it is impossible for items in a shared calendar to appear in the "to do bar" in the email-viewpane. For that issue a ticket was created all
the way back in 2010 on
Shared calendar items in "to do bar"
and users are still discussing and asking questions on it without any solution from you guys at Microsoft. Thats almost
5 years without a solution. The two issues are clearly related and they exist at least since Office 2007 and still remain unsolved in Office 2013 which our office is using.
Now... in stead of referring and rereferring this issue from forum to forum and refrain from answering at all on the other... maybe you could put your heads together, brains in gear, try to think out of the box for a change and help out all those millions
of outlook users which would love to use shared calendars in the proper way.

Creating and Enabling Shared Mailboxes

Hi everyone,
I have a 10.4.10 mail server. I need to create a shared mailbox that various users can subscribe to. How do I go about doing this?
TIA!
Andrew

Hi Andrew
If you download the application and consult its Help file it should tell you how to use it.
What I like to do is to create a 'special' account that I use to work with mailboxes - mailboxadmin. Make sure POP and IMAP is enabled for that account first.
However you can use any account you like.
All that's required is you add the account's shortname to /etc/imapd.conf. I would make a backup of /etc/imapd.conf first. Once you've done that edit impad.conf and add the shortname to the admins entry. You should see cyrusimap already there. Add a comma and a space followed by the shortname and save the changes. Launch SirAdmin, add 127.0.0.1 to the address followed by the account details. Create an ACL for that user for desired mailboxes. Save the changes.
Use nano or pico or any command line text editor you like. Try not to use the Finder. If you find the command line worrying then you can use TextWrangler instead:

Cant Create Mailboxes. Please help

When I try to create new mailboxes I get the error "Unable to create path ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/JOhn.mbox."
Does anyone now how to fix this?
Thanks

For some reason, sometimes ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes is actually a file instead of a folder, thus causing the problem you're experiencing. Verify/repair your disk first, as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Quit Mail.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate Mailboxes. If it's a file instead of a folder, move it to the Trash.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.

Creating Mailbox Rules on Shared Mailboxes

We are using Exchange 2010 SP1 and have just discovered the Shared Mailboxes option. This has helped us get over a lot of hurdles. However we want to be able to make rules on those boxes to sort mail as it comes into a shared box to put it in different
folders in that box. I can't seem to find a way to configure a mailbox rule for the shared box. Any guidance would be great!

Have you actually tried this? Because it doesn't work for shared inboxes like it does personal inboxes. Rules don't trigger automatically, and they don't apply across the network, you must apply them on a machine by machine basis. Please make an effort
to understand what people are actually asking, this site is cluttered with useless "answers"

Cant create extra email mailbox in home broadband account

I cannot create extra mailboxes. In MyAccount it says "Want to add or close a mailbox?To open a new mailbox or close an existing mailbox, log in to My BigPond. You'll be able to do this in My Account soon. If you closed a mailbox in the last 6 months, you'll be able to reactivate it by logging into webmail using the username and password of that email account. If you closed it more than 6 months ago, you won't be able to reactivate the account. Instead, create a new mailbox." But when I go to MyBigpond there is no icon for creating extra email mailboxes. Any idea how I can do it?

Shared mailbox contacts to Address Book

Hi all
We have recently migrated to an Exchange 2010 environment, our clients using Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2010.
We have a large number of shared mailboxes within our organisation that contain their own contacts lists. The shared mailbox is added as as additional mailbox to the users' own profile as they have been delegated full access to manage
and maintain all items.
The issue we are having is trying to get the contacts list on the shared mailbox to show up in the users address book when sending an email.
I have had a search on the net for an answer to this and the only thing I can get to work to is creating a new profile for the shared mailbox and renaming the contacts as discussed in the following thread: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclients/thread/62befbae-ceaa-482b-b450-e448f8d1a265
The issue with this however is that it only seems to temporarily work - after closing the profile for the shared mailbox and opening the user profile it will only appear in the address book for the first time; after closing and reopening Outlook
the contacts list for the shared mailbox disappears.
Even if we did get this method to work every time, it seems a little long winded. Some shared mailboxes are used by about 10 different users and having to get them to create a new profile for the shared mailbox seems a little full on just to get
the contacts list to show up in their address book.
Other threads on the net have suggested just going into the properties of the Contact item on the shared mailbox and ticking the "Show this folder as an e-mail Address Book". The issue I am having is that the there is no such tick box. In fact the
"Outlook Address Book" tab isn't even there. The users' have been given full control of the contacts as they are able to create/modify/delete contacts when they actually select the contact objects from the shared mailbox.
We have just moved from an Oracle mail environment where this was possible and so would like to know if sharing contacts is a supported feature of Exchange 2010/Outlook. If so, how?
Cheers
Brady
