Cross-Site Mail Flow Through Internet

Hi,
I have typical Exchange 2013 servers deployed in 2 AD sites. Currently, mail flow between the 2 sites are going through our WAN. Is there a way to force mail flow between the 2 sites to go through the internet?

Hi Chester,
Create send connector pointing to the internet gateway or edge server for each AD site Exchange server separately and on the default receive connector instead of all ip address ..customize to the exchange server specific ip address that are located in the
same site...this will not allow the mail flow across the WAN and it uses the internet route for mail routing across the site..

Exchange 2013 Mail Flow Through VPN

I have 2 Exchange servers in 2 different AD sites. Is it possible to route mail flow between the 2 sites through a VPN tunnel? I want to force mail flow between the 2 servers to route externally through the internet.
Appreciate any feedback.

Hi Chester,
we have a DNS record for mail and this record is pointing to our private IP address of CAS server. Network team has done network configuration for that particular IP to route the traffic through VPN tunnel to the Exchange servers in other site. Another thing
for you to think is Private IP request won't go to internet and will go to DNS server in that site and once the DNS server will resolve that request against IP address the traffic will be routed to that server.
Kindly mark this as answer if found helpful. Thanks.

Cross Forest Mail Flow

I have a situation where we have 2 companies merging together. We have users in forest 1 and users in forest 2. Is it possible to have a user in Forest 1 who can send emails with an email domain from Forest 2?
For sending an email i would create a send connector to route emails over to Forest2 email servers and have them send to the outside world. But receiving emails is where i'm stuck. The MX record would point the email into Forest2 but we would
need the email to be routed to the users mailbox in forest1.
Is this possible?

If any email system is authoritative for an SMTP namespace, it is responsible for sending non-delivery reports (NDRs) for any message sent to an address in that SMTP namespace that it doesn't have in its directory. And you can't share an SMTP
namespace between two email systems without having at least one of them as authoritative for the namespace - one of them needs to own the namespace so that if a message has an invalid recipient, the email will get an NDR.
In the steps I outlined above, you have one Exchange system (Forest1) that has a namespace it is not authoritative for (the Forest2 namespace) already. You can't also set Forest2 as non-authoritative for the namespace, or you risk mail loops. So for
each mailbox in Forest1 that you need to set a Forest2 SMTP address on, you need to have a way for Forest2 to send email to that mailbox. This is why you need contacts. Delete the contacts, and you can no longer send from Forest2 to the mailboxes
with Forest2 addresses that reside in Forest1 - Forest2 has no recipients with that SMTP address, so it will bound the message (note - this includes inbound messages from the Internet, since all messages bound for the Forest2 email address are first delivered
to the Forest2 email system).
In the example you mention, you are sharing the namespace with a third-party email system. In that example, that third-party email system is authoritative for the namespace and is responsible for the NDR.

How to create flow through internet signal

for 18 months i've had an airport express in my office. i plug the ethernet cord in, the airport light turns green, and i'm good to go.
yesterday, i had to unplug the airport to move it. when i plugged it back in, i couldn't connect anymore. so i reset it and have been trying to configure it once more. but there's something i'm missing.
i swear that i set it up to act as just a bridge. it got an ip address from my office dhcp and light was green. then it allowed my macbook (and powerbook before that) to get an ip address from the same dhcp server. so it acted like a hub rather than a router that assigns its own ip to connected computers. i can't find in the set up assistant anything that looks like it will let me do that. what am i missing? it worked before.
any suggestions? thanks in advance,
adam

Yes it does. It sounds like the AX "lost" the ability to detect the DHCP server. I suggest trying a complete power recycle of all of your network components to see if this gets things working again.
o Power-off the DSL/Cable modem, Internet router, AX & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the DSL/Cable modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the Internet router; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Plug in the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
o Power-on the computer(s)

Project Server 2010 permissions granted through RBS are not flowing through to Project Sites.

Hi,
I have configured RBS as "The Project Owner is a descendant of the user via RBS" its working fine for Projects.
But users are facing access denied issue when working with project sites RBS is not working for project sites.
Can any one Help me How can i grant permissions Automatically for project sites also as same like projects is it possible ?
The Members in Executives group can see all projects in organization but same like can they see all project sites ?
I have found one blog of
RaymondRis he is recommending to do it manually as its not possible to grant Project site permissions Automatically.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/raymond_ris/archive/2013/05/09/project-server-2010-permissions-granted-through-rbs-are-not-flowing-through-to-project-sites.aspx
Thank You, Kumar KSV

Kumar,
The permissions to project sites is not cotrolled by the RBS, as you have discovered. It is controlled by the Security Category permisisons, and the settings if the permssions are auto synced. The permissions work like this:
Project managers who have published a project or who have Save Project permissions on a project are added to the Project Managers (Microsoft Project Server) site group.
Team members with assignments in a project are added to the Team members (Microsoft Project Server) site group.
Other Project Server users who have View Project Site permission on a project are added to the Readers (Microsoft Project Server) site group.
As long as you use the Auto Sync of permisisons for project sites, i do not think there is any work around.

IS-R: Picking in Flow Through and Cross Docking

In Merchandise Distribution (conceptually),
- for recipient-driven flow through, picking is done before GI.
- for cross-docking, no picking.
Which configuration controls the picking has to be done in flow-through and not to be done in cross-docking?

How to use Cross-Site Publishing to publish content on Internet public site?

Hi All,
I have already build a site designed for anonymous access from Internet. Because the requirements were to enable SEO friendly URLs I have to enable Managed Navigation. This feature is not compatible with Content Deployment. So, I cannot deploy content from
staging server to production anymore. I am looking at Cross-Site Publishing option but I could not find a way how I can publish Master Pages an Layouts to Publishing site. Also all pages were created in Pages document library. I do not want to rebuild a site
from scratch.
Is there any way to publish exist site build in classical SharePoint way Master Page-Layout Page-Publishing Page to Publishing site using Cross-Site Publishing feature?
Oleg

Hi Oleg,
What do you want to do with the master pages and publishing pages after publishing them to the publishing site?
Cross-site publishing is used to show the content from authoring site collection to publishing site collections.
If you want to show the master pages or publishing pages in publishing site collections, you can use cross-site publishing feature to achieve this goal.

Mail Flow between 2 AD Sites stops and EMC unavailable on the local server

Hello All,
I'm hoping you can help me find a solution to this recurring problem.
SYMPTOMS :
Mail Flow between 2 EXCH2010 servers in 2 different AD Sites (separate time zones) stops suddenly with no messages in the Event Viewer or exchange logs.
When this happens the EMC is unavailable on the local server : Error message Connection attempt to http://<servername> with the help of "Kerberos" failed : The connection to the remote server failed with the following error : Access Refused
Same error when opening Exchange Powershell
On the OTHER server (ie the one I can connect to in Site 2) I can :
1 - Connect to the first server using EMC with no problems
2 - Using mail queue viewer pointed at the server in Site 2 I can see the following error for email directed to the server in Site 1 : 451 4.4.0 Primary target address responded with: "235 00000804YIIF/<load of alphanumeric characters 80 or so long>
RECOVERY :
A reboot of the server allows access to the EMC and Powershell and mail flow once again starts.... until the next time
OTHER INFORMATION :
When in the above state, ran Exchange Management Troubleshooter which finds errors but cannot identify them : "Unknown Error" then stops !
Ran ExBPA : turns up nothing
Currently needing to reboot every day or so.
I though maybe the local server had a problem with resolving itself correctly, did some troubleshooting around that and turned up nothing. Even added itself to its hosts file in order to resolve its IP : Changed nothing.
Searched on the above error 451 4.4.0 etc and turned up nothing useful.
I think the Kerberos error is telling, but I haven't turned anything up during a search yet.
Any ideas ?
Please AMA if you need more info or clarification.
Matthew

Hello,
When the issue happens, can you telent the target server successfully?

Mail flow to Edge Transport from a different AD site

Trying to define a solution for *outbound* load balancing from Exchange 2013 organisation between Edge Transport servers.
Setup:
1 Edge Transport server in SiteA
1 Edge Transport server ins SiteB
Both subscribed to the AD site in SiteA and are therefore on the same send connector (to allow automatic load balancing and failover)
Situation:
Lets say all MBX/CA servers in SiteA go offline. Can an MBX/CA server in SiteB send email directly to the Edge Transport that is subscribed to the AD site in SiteA, or does there need to be an MBX/CA server available in SiteA to hop through?
I'm hoping for an answer to be backed up clearly by a TechNet article or authoritative source as I can't really work with guesses.
Thanks.
Let’s say I have an Edge Transport subscribed to ADSiteA. All MBX/HT servers in ADSiteA go down. Can a MB/HT server in ADSiteB send an email directly to an Edge Transport subscribed to ADSiteA, or does it need to hop through an MBX/HT in the
subscribed site?
David

Hi David
One or more Edge Transport servers can be subscribed to a single Active Directory site. However, an Edge Transport server can't be subscribed to more than one Active Directory site. If you have more than one Edge Transport server deployed, each server can
be subscribed to a different Active Directory site. Each Edge Transport server requires an individual Edge Subscription.
A subscribed Edge Transport server is associated with a particular Active Directory site. If more than one Hub Transport server exists in the site, any of them can replicate data to the subscribed Edge Transport servers.
I dont think there is a solution to subscribe edge servers for more than 1 site

Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 mail flow?

We are planning to migrate Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013.
I understand that we need to upgrade the CAS to 2013 for Internet Facing.
What about mail flow. Currently, Internet mail flows to Exchange 2010 (single site). Can I keep it for sometime after introducing 2013 and do the cutover of HUB once all the mailboxes are moved to 2013? Or I have to get the mail flow to 2013 first.
Also, how does HUB 2010 transfer mail or receive mail from 2013? Does it get from the CAS proxy in 2013 or from HUB?
Thanks!!!

Yes, you can. But my preference is to move the mail routing early in the migration, usually even before moving mailboxes, because I believe it reduces the risk of a service interruption.
I believe it goes through the front-end transport on the CAS, since that is the TCP port 25 service.

Mail flow configuration.

Scenario:
Company abc.com mail server is hosted by a 3rd party hosting company. (mail.abc.com)
I deployed an exchange 2013 server in the company abc.com.
Created users similar to the users in the 3rd party host.
When i sent mail from my exchange server: [email protected] to the internet: it works
When i sent mail from the internet to [email protected] I recieve mail on my 3rd party host mail domain only.
I made mx records on the 3rd party mail host and A records pointing to my exchange server.But I am not able to recieve the emails inside exchange .( Made through admin panel web interface)
Is there a way to set in such a way that i recieved the mail on both the servers.??

Hi,
According to your description, the 3rd party hosting company doesn’t have an Exchange server. If I misunderstand your meaning, please feel free to let me know.
If yes, as far as I know, we can try the following workaround: make inbound mail flow to Exchange 2013 server well and create a transport rule to forward the emails.
Firstly, let’s try to resolve the mail flow issue inside Exchange server.
And I’d like to recommend the following troubleshooting:
1. Use the telnet to test the mail flow and confirm the error code.

Establish mail flow from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013

I am currently using Exchange 2007 into three sites in three cities and two of the sites are connected to Internet sending and receiving emails via Edge transport servers.
Now I am planning to upgrade to exchange 2013 CU1. I don't find any documentation on how to establish mail flow between Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013. Will it be automatic or do i need to create specific connectors between them?

Was this question answered. We're in the same situation now as we're upgrading to Exchange 2013 from 2007. The latest CU certainly helped. Initially the test mailboxes on Exchange 2013 couldn't email each other - This was resolved with CU7 and
using "Custom Settings" - manually entered IPs for DNS in the Exchange Admin Center "DNS Lookups".
Issue at the moment Test mailboxes on Exchange 2013 cannot email mailboxes on 2007 or visa-versa and mail from external sources queues on the 2007 box.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Exchange 2013 SMTP Mail Flow from external domains

I have query related to mail flow for incoming mails from external domains from Internet facing site. There are two sites - Site A & Site B. Both have Exchange 2013 CAS servers in NLB and Exchange 2013 Mailbox in individual DAG - say DAG1 in Site
A and DAG2 in Site B. Site A is Internet facing site and site B is not Internet facing.
An incoming Internet mail meant for recipient in Site B will land in Exchange 2013 CAS server in Site A. This CAS Server in Site A will look for the recipient in local Domain Controller and get to know the mailbox database of this recipient is in DAG2 (
in site B ) Will the FET service in EX2013 CAS in Site A make a SMTP connection with FET service of EX2013 CAS in site B which will then make SMTP connection to EX2013 Mailbox server in Site B which is holding the recipient mailbox Active copy for delivery.
OR
EX2013 CAS will send this mail to Ex2013 Mailbox server in site A and the Hub Transport service running in in site A will then make SMTP connection with EX2013 Mailbox server in Site B which is holding the recipient mailbox Active copy
Need clarification on above
Thanks

Exchange Server 2003/2010 Coexistence Mail-flow Issues

I've installed Exchange 2010 in a 2003 coexistence scenario.
2010 was deployed with CAS,HUB, and Mailbox roles.
The installation went through smoothly, and the default RGC was created.
On the 2010 Server, when I create a new users with mailbox, that user is no able to send or receive mail from anywhere.
2010 user to 2010 user does not work
2003 user to 2010 user does not work
Mail delivery between 2003 users works fine.
The RGC message queue in ESM 2003 shows that the messages are queued and keep retrying.
I have deleted the RGC twice and created new ones, I have un-installed the HUB and CAS roles and re-installed them, and I have also re-run setup /preparead and setup /preparelegacyexchangepermissions
I'm not able to make any sense of the message tracking on the 2010 side. It just shows a bunch of entries:
EventID: NOTIFYMAPI
Source: STOREDRIV
When I use the best practices analyzer to test mailflow to a 2010 user from the outside, the test comes back with a pass even though the message itself isn't delivered to the specified mailbox.
There is no smart host defined on the default SMTP virtual server on 2003.
There is no SMTP Send Connector for External or Internal mail configured on 2003 besides the 2010 RGC
Any ideas?

As long as you cannot send email between ex2010 users this has nothing to do with connectors/smtp config..
I had the same issue one year ago and solved adding both sevrers to old/new exchange sevrers security groups.
Looks like for some missing security entry (not sure why) mailbox is unable to conact HUB  (MSExchangeMailSubmission) I expect you seing items stuck in draft for owa (outbok for outlook)
I saw in some blogs similar cases solved by setting static DNS servers for HUB severs config.
Yes that is similar to what I'm experiencing.
When using the Outlook client with a 2010 mailbox the mail leaves the outbox fine. When using OWA new messages just get saved as drafts when I try to send them.
I will try your suggestions. I see two groups. Exchange Domain Servers, and Exchange Enterprise Servers of which Exchange Domain Servers is a member.
