Disconnecting Exchange Mailbox Using AD Adapter

Has anyone disconnected Exchange Mailbox from the user using the AD adapter? We would like to understand what Sun's official stance is in doing this.
Could we disconnect by simply setting the following attributes to NULL or ""?
1. homeMTA
2. homeMDB
3. msExchangeHomerServerName
We do not wish to delete an Exchange Mailbox, simply disconnect (equivalent to disable of mailbox)
Thank you

If you have one group doing all mailbox creation, you won't get automatic creation to rely on user location. We use a script for creating mailboxes on the next logical server. You could do the same thing, but with logic that took into consideration
the user location.

Second Exchange Mailbox Random Disconnects In Outlook 2010

We have our users temporarily using two exchange mailboxes in Outlook 2010. The primary account is fine (exchange is local) but the second account we recently adds seems to randomly disconnect and not automatically reconnect. The fix at the moment
is to reboot the computer and everything works fine but this is obviously annoying to the users.
Anyone else run into this issue or have a suggestion?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I recommend using separate profiles for each account if they are using a same one.
When the second mailbox cannot connect to Exchange server, it will leave some information/warning/error in the App log. Please post the details if there is any related content.
Thanks

How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

Complex string pattern match/sort question for mapping data - Exchange Enable mailbox use case

Hi, Im trying to do a runbook to Enable mailbox for a user. Our Exchange Admin uses a rule/formula to allocate the mailbox database based on users first name and this is what I am having difficulty replicating in Orchestrator to add the correct
data in the Database property of Enable Mailbox activity.
The Rule exchange uses, takes up to the first 3 chars of forename and based on an alphabetic sort, it will allocate to a particular mailbox db (we have a quite large Exchange Org with 20k users so hes tried to allocate about 500 users per mailboxDB). so
for example User Forename A-ALI = DB1, ALL-ANG = DB2, ANH-ANY=DB3,AO-BER=DB4 etc etc.
So I was hoping someone could advise of some string comparison activities native in Orchestrator or maybe done as last resort in powershell (as I'm not great in powershell) to provide a map of the published data for forname to appropriate mailbox matrix.
Any help on this would be much appreciated...
Cheers

You could use the built in Mid function [Mid(‘Return subset from this string’,1,3)] to get the first three letters of their name and honestly I would send
this to the Run .Net Script activity using powershell myself and do a select case to get it to publish to the database the name of the database server.
I am all for using built in activities to do things in Orchestrator but you are going to quickly find that you need to have good powershell scripting skills to extend the tools beyond the capabilities of the built in activities.

Is it supported to connect Exchange 2013 Mailbox using Exchange 2010 CAS in Co-existence?

Hi Team,
I am in the phase of upgrading Exchange 2010 to 2013, and introduced 4 MBX and 2 CAS of 2013 servers in co-existence.
Only one production mailbox of 2010 moved to 2013. The owa of the mailbox moved to 2013, is working OK internally coz only internally configured, but when I configure outlook using 2010 settings, it got configured but when I open outlook it doesn't
open and throws an error of some "cannot open set of folders".
Is it supported to connect Exchange 2013 Mailbox using Exchange 2010 CAS in Co-existence? because I havnt configured 2013 CAS servers yet.
Kindly share some KB or tip. Any help is appreciated. Thank You.

I'll change Adam's wording slightly - you *MUST* install a CAS 13 server into every site where there is a MBX 13 server.

Exchange creates a new logs even no mailbox uses the storage group

We are running Exchange 2007 with 4 storage groups. We have migrated most of our mailboxes to Office 365 (there two web emails need to configure SMTP relay on Office 365) and stopped Exchange backup. However, the Exchange data still increases
everyday because of the log files. In checking the those storages, no one uses storage group 2 and 3, but these two storages have a new log files every day. Why? How can we find out which mailbox uses them?

An easy way to see what mailboxes are being used on your system is to check your message tracking logs - run the following:
Get-TransportServer | Sort Name | % { get-messagetrackinglog -Start "11/3/2014" -ResultSize Unlimited } | Select TimeStamp, Sender, Recipients, MessageSubject, EventID, TotalBytes, RecipientCount, RecipientStatus, ServerHostName, MessageLatency*,
ConnectorID
This should get you the information if mailboxes have been used for sending or receiving email. If you have any retention enabled in your system, this will cause messages to be removed from mailboxes. And there is the common daily calendar management
that the systems does. If you have the recoverable items and recoverable mailboxes in place, these will be removed over time. And finally, Exchange closes log files so that the database can be recovered to a certain point in time, regardless of
whether there is traffic on the database. So even if you have removed all access from your mailboxes, and in fact even if you have removed all your mailboxes, you will have transaction logs being closed.

Who has full access on all mailboxes in Exchange 2010 using Powershell ?

Greetings,
Could you please tell me how can i know Who has full access on all mailboxes in Exchange 2010 using Powershell ?
Thanks.
Redouane SARRA

This is going to depend greatly on WHICH inherited permissions you plan to delete - there are some that you can never delete if you want the system to function properly. Now, that being said, let's look at some example permissions. First, here
are some permissions on a standard mailbox:
Identity             User                 AccessRights
IsInherited Deny
users.corp.... USERS\btwatcher    {FullAccess}
False       False
users.corp.... USERS\svcactAdmin {FullAccess}
True        False
users.corp.... CORP\Domain Ad... {FullAccess}
True        True
users.corp.... CORP\Enterpris... {FullAccess}
True        True
users.corp.... CORP\Organizat... {FullAccess}
True        True
users.corp.... CORP\adminact    {FullAccess}
True        True
users.corp.... CORP\esswin       {FullAccess}
True        True
users.corp.... USERS\svcactEncase {FullAccess}
True        False
users.corp.... CORP\Exchange ... {FullAccess}
True        False
users.corp.... NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM {FullAccess}
True        False
As you can see, the first is not inherited. All others are, and two are from service accounts (svcact...). Also, some are Exchange system permissions, some are denies, and some are just administrative accounts. Once you determine which
you wish to remove, the SIMPLEST way to set the permissions you want is to open the account properties in ADSIEdit, and go to the Security tab. Here, click the Advanced button and find the inherited permission you wish to remove. ADSIEdit will
show where the permission is inherited from - you will need to go to that container to remove the inherited permission. You can also grant inherited denies at the same level(s).
Now, something you will need to understand is that if you hope to remove permissions granted to domain administrators, the system will replace them - these permissions are required by the system and can't be modified permanently.

False Signature is chosen, when i use multiple exchange mailboxes in Outlook 2010

Hi,
My Problem:
A user has his own Exchange mailbox and an additional exchange mailbox with full access permissions connected in Outlook 2010. I have made different signatures for every Mailbox.
Mailbox A is working properly. Sending and answering / forwarding works correctly with signature A.
When i send a mail with mailbox B, outlook uses signature B.
When i ANSWER a mail with mailbox B, outlook uses signature A.
The "from" button is highlighted on mailbox B. When i choose mailbox B in the from button manually, it works .....
Any idea?
Regards,
Dave

Hi,
I need to confirm one thing first, did you add Mailbox B as an additional Mailbox, or a second Account in E-mail list?

Unable to connect to disconnected archive mailbox

Hi,
We are using exchange 2013 CU3 in our environment, When we try to connect to a disconnected mailbox using EAC or powershell it gets succeeds for Primary mailbox however if I try the same way to connect archive mailbox it throws me a error "The legacy
DN is already in use by following active directory user " Primary mailbox User name". The vaule Legacy DN must be unique to each other
can anyone help me in this ? Is this a bug in exchange 2013 ?

You Can do that . Do the Following steps :
1)Enable old AD user
2)Enable Exchange mailbox for old user (Don't enable Archive Mailbox)
3)Open Exchange Powershell cmd then : (This is an example)
Enable-Mailbox -ArchiveGuid "0a914fb5-78a4-4f54-8a99-55e12dd0d738" -ArchiveDatabase "Archive
Dtabase name " -Identity "Anderiasian , Edna"
4)by this command the archive linked to old user
5) after completing , export the archive mailbox to PST file
6)Import PST file to New User Archive-Mailbox ;

How do I setup shared Exchange mailbox with Mail (Yosemite)?

Hello,
we use Office 365 hosting for our mails. Setting up my default Exchange account is no problem at all, just provide e-Mail address, password and let auto discover finish the rest through System Preferences -> Internet accounts.
But I also need to setup two shared Exchange mailboxes. If I setup the e-mail address of the shared mailbox. I tried to set it up as follows:
System Preferences -> Internet Accounts -> Add Exchange Account
Name: Shared Mailbox
Email Address: [email protected]
Password <own AD password>
As expected: Internet Accounts couldn't log in to the Exchange server "autodiscover-s.outlook.com". Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct. Then, enter your user name and click Continue.
<Continue>
Account Settings
Account Type: Exchange
Description: Shared Mailbox
User Name: <own smtp mail address>
Password: <own AD password>
Server Address: outlook.office365.com
<Continue>
Account Summary
Account type: Exchange
Full name: Shared Mailbox
Email address: [email protected]
Server address: outlook.office365.com
<Continue>
Select the apps to use with "[email protected]": Mail
=> There was a problem setting up the Mail account: an unknown error occurred.
05/01/15 13:02:10,706 com.apple.internetaccounts[313]: Already have account E2E3FF00-2B0E-4F75-ADD9-FB********** configured for user: <[email protected]> host: outlook.office365.com
So to add an additional account to access a different mailbox on the Exchange sever with the same credentials as the personal mailbox is apparently no option any more. On the other hand I haven't found any option to add according folders from other mail address inboxes to my personal account in any of the Preferences from Mail (Yosemite, 8.1) or any menu item, that would allow me to add the inboxes of other shared Exchange server mail boxes I have access to.
The same is true for Mail (iOS 8.1.2), thus I have not found a solution to configure the shared mailboxes on my iOS devices either.
Trying to setup an "Add Other Account" using IMAP did not succeed either. It always uses my personal mailbox, because I only have my personal user to access the shared mailbox and downloads my personal inbox instead of the one of the shared mailbox.
Do I really have to fall back to Outlook 2011 Mac to be able to use this feature and miss out on all the hands off features from Yosemite?

i too use office 365 shared mailboxes and it took me a long time to work out to add them to my ios mail app , this worked for me :
start setting up a normal exchange account , put your shared email address in the username and you main email account password.
it will fail to do the auto-discover thing , but when you click on continue it eil allow you to manually enter the details :
Name : < whatever>
email : <your shared email a/c address i.e [email protected] >
description : <whatever>
incoming mail
Host name : outlook.office365.com
username : <your main email address / shared i.e [email protected]/myshared >
password : < your main account password >
outgoing mail server:
SMTP : smtp.office365.com
username : <your mail email i.e. [email protected] >
password < your main account password >
use ssl <YES>
authentication : Password
server port 587
this worked fine on every IOS device i own, but somehow it doesn't work with my Yosemite mail , so if anybody can help with Yosemite mail it would be much appreciated.
Cheers;

The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error. Event 1121

Hello all,
We migrated our Exchange server from 2003 to 2010. After the mailbox move requests were finished we had one that was stuck. We basically skipped it as we had a lot of other things to finish over the weekend. Here we are a year later, the old exchange server
is gone and so is an old DC. I am receiving an error every four minutes in event viewer.

I have checked in EMC for move requests. None are listed. I have checked the DCs listed in EMC properties. Old DC is not listed.
I also ran these commands in shell to attempt to cancel the stuck request.
Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus Completed;Pending;InProgress;Failed;CompletedWithWarning;Suspended;Queued;CompletionWithProgress : Remove-MoveRequest
NO changes. Still throwing error. Any suggestions? I also tried using the guid and shell to look at the move request. Systems replies no such request.

Hello,
Please try to restart iis services to check the result.
If the issue persists, I recommend you ping you DC server on your exchange server to check if your exchange server can communicate with your DC server.
If there are other DCs, please try to use set-adserversettings cmdlet to specify a DC for your exchange server.

The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service was unable to process a request due to an unexpected error

Since demoting a child domain a few days ago, Exchange 2013 is still trying to contact it and as a result generating errors in the application event logs. I had a similar problem which I solved by removing some old migration batches, now I have a problem
with the Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service.

Turn on session debugging. What does the protocol trace show?
Are you able to connect with other mail clients, such as Thunderbird?
