Exchange 2007 and the Drafts folder

My company uses Exchange for email, and I access it via my iPhone and the mail app. No problems - until we upgraded to Exchange 2007.
Now, drafts saved on my macbook are accessible to my other macs and the web interface - but not to my iPhone. And vice-versa. I now have second folder on my iPhone named "Drafts" that's the Exchange Drafts - but it's not the official "Drafts" folder as far as the iPhone is concerned, doesn't percolate to the top with "Sent", and doesn't allow me to review/send. And now, with my iPad, I have three Drafts folders - since it doesn't sync as the official Drafts folder, it doesn't sync between mobile products, either.
I'm not really holding my breath until MS fixes Exchange, but I'd think this would be higher profile.

Anyone ?
Help with iCal / Address book issue.
User try's to create a calendar event, adding invites, it says they must create card because they are not in address book. It will not take their address.
Is there a way to re-sync iCal/Address book with Exchange 2007 GAL?

Several messages were in the Drafts folder when my isp went off line suddenly and when it came back hours later the draft messages were gone. How do I find them

I had 8 or 10 messages in the drafts folder. I had Thunderbird open when my isp had equipment problems and suddenly went off line on February 19, 2015. When it came back online the next morning all those drafts were gone. Is there some way I can retrieve them? If so, please send directions on how to do it. Thank you for any help you can give me.

The top folder was Local Folders with Inbox, Sent Mail, Drafts, Trash and Archives under it. I had several messages in Archives and they went away when the Drafts messages went. Actually the only folder that wasn't emptied was the inbox. Those messages re-downloaded from the web mail.
What I understand from what you've written is that unless something was done when the mail account was set up, all my mail was on att/yahoo mail and they're the ones that lost my drafts.
If I'm wrong about it being an IMAP account and it was really POP, would that make a difference?

Throttling policies and clearing drafts folder

Hi all,
We run Exchange 2010 SP3. We recently had an issue where a users password was compromised due to a phishing email. Our Barracuda Spam firewall prevented
much of it from getting out into the Internet, but the Exchange queue between our CAS servers and the Barracuda got so big that no email was being sent at all. To try and prevent this from happening again I am testing out using Exchange throttling policies.
I have tested out the following policy that only allows users to send out one email message per minute:
new-throttlingPolicy -name LimitMessages -MessageRateLimit 1
I tested this policy on my own account, I noticed that you can send as many messages as you want, but they'll just end up in the drafts folder and eek out one
minute at a time. Which is great, i'd rather this happen than email be down. However, when I tried to empty my drafts folder, I got the following error:
"Some items cannot be deleted. They were either moved or already deleted, or access was denied"
After getting this message, the drafts folder looks clear for a second, but then all of the messages come right back. This creates a problem as, if someones
password gets compromised again, their drafts folder could potentially have 10s of thousands of email messages in it, waiting to be sent out. How would I delete them all?

Hi,
I recommend you check the size of the dumpster, if the dumpster is full, may caused this issue.
You can try the following method and check if any helps:
1.Run the following command to clean the dumpster out:
Search-mailbox -identity userid -SearchDumpsterOnly -DeleteContent
2.If the issue persist, try to move the mailbox to other database and check the result.
Thanks.

When I am writing an email, I get an alert message that says “The message could not be copied or moved to the drafts folder. Writing to the folder failed. To gain disc space, choose Empty Deleted and choose Compact Folders and try again.”
If I do that, I get a message saying “There was an error copying to the Sent folder,, retry?”
If I retry it sends the uncompleted email. All I can do is keep deleting the message and carry on. Then the whole business might repeat itself.
Help!

Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive. If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
-Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
-Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down. You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
-Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes. Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked. You can close Preferences now.
-Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library. iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
Shouldn't have any more problems...

I can no longer send emails and my drafts folder no longer functions. How do I fix them?

I am using Windows XP. I have Mozilla Firefox 3.6. My Gmail account no longer can send emails and my Drafts folder is inoperable. I can see, save, discard, or edit anything in Drafts. This is only with my home pc. Any other computer (library, work..) does work. How do I fix this?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== about a momth ago

Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look.

Sending email leaves duplicates in the Draft Folder

When I am sending particularly large email messages, the email gets sent, but for some reason a duplicate of the message gets left in the Drafts Folder. So now I have the same email that I had just sent in the Drafts Folder and in the Sent Folder. So then I have to manually trash the message in the Drafts Folder.
This does not seem right. In the past the message in the Drafts folder has always deleted itself as soon as the email has been sent.

The last one that exhibited this behavior contained two photos that added up to 4.6MB.
But the size factor does not seem to enter in since the messages sailed out as they normally do complete with the Zooom sound that is assigned leaving behind the complete message sitting in both the Sent and Drafts folders. This leaves me with the housecleaning task of selecting the message in the Drafts folder and clicking the trash can.
It should be noted that the last time I did this, the deleted message re-appeared the next day in my Trash as a recovered file. It is like the cat that keeps coming back...

Free/Busy not working Exchange 2007 and 2013 co-existence

Hi,
I'm migrating our Exchange 2007 environment to Exchange 2013. Now I am in a co-existence environment where all the mailboxes except some test-users resides on Exchange 2007. Between Users on the same Exchange MBX Server athe FREE/BUSY Information sharing
works correctly, but between Exchange 2007 and 2013 it's not working.
I verified my settings and also the EWS virtual directory on 2007 CAS Servers using Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory.
The internal and the external URLs are set to https://legacy.mydomain.com/....
What am I missing?
Thanks & Kind Regards,
Jürgen

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that the free/busy information between Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2013 is not available for your coexistence environment. To narrow down the issue, please check the following points:
1. Does the issue happen to all users or specific users?
2. Although a user on Exchange 2013 can't get free/busy information from a user on Exchange 2007, please confirm whether Exchange 2007 user can get free/busy information from Exchange 2013 users.
3. Close Outlook and only access user mailbox from OWA to check whether the issue persists. For Outlook client,
create a new Outlook profile
to have a try.
4. Please make sure the virtual directories settings are configured correctly in both Exchange 2013 and Exchange 2007.
Virtual directories settings in Exchange 2007:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/meamcs/archive/2013/07/25/part-2-step-by-step-exchange-2007-to-2013-migration.aspx
5. Restart IIS service in Exchange server by running iisreset /noforce from a command prompt window.
If possible, please run Test E-mail AutoConfiguration in Outlook to check whether the autodiscover service can get correct Availability service URL in the results. If there is any event logs, please collect some for further analysis.

Getting UConn 8.5 to work with both Exchange 2007 and 2010

According to the document below, I should be able to set up one Unified Messaging service to access mailboxes on both Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2007 servers. I setup my service to point to 2010 CAS servers and I can access 2010 mailboxes, but testing 2007 mailboxes comes up with an http 200 error. If I setup the CAS server as 2007, I can access 2007 mailboxes, but get an error on 2010 mailboxes. This will be a real pain if I can't do this with one service. I don't want to have to keep Unity Connection updated as users get moved from 2007 to 2010! Anyoe know how to do this?
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/unified_messaging/guide/85xcucumg020.html#wp1198171

I got this to work! My Unified Messaging Service was originally setup to Specify an Exchange Server. That is where I had put the DNS name of the CAS server (and that DNS entry pointed to several CAS servers). I changed the Service to Search for Exchange Servers instead and used that same DNS name in the Active Directory DNS Domain Name. When I do the test of this service, it tells me it Failed to locate a Domain Controller via DNS, but that is just informational. It also says it successfully connected to the Exchange CAS server with the autodiscover.xml. Now my mailboxes on both Exchange 2007 and 2010 are able to receive voicemail messages with this one Service configured.

One messege is stuck in the draft folder

I sent and email the other day and it got to where it needed to go to. The problem is that there is a copy of it stuck in the draft folder. Mail has never done this before, it only did this to this particular messege. I have sent other messeges since with no problem. If I trash the prefs for Mail, what will I have to reset if anything? Will this solve it?
thanks
Chris

Strange if these messages are re-appearing after deleting the Drafts mailbox for the associated account.
While composing a message, the message is temporarily saved in account's Drafts mailbox for the selected account to be used for sending the message.
If you have multiple accounts in Mail and you deleted the Drafts.mbox folder within the appropriate account named folder, the re-appearing messages must be coming from the account's Sent mailbox.
How many messages are available in this account's Sent mailbox and how often do you use the Rebuild Mailbox function on the Inbox and Sent mailbox for all accounts?

Mail is putting my emails in the draft folder even though they have been sent. What gives?

Mail is putting my emails in the draft folder and leaving them there even after they have been sent. This is not happening all the time, but enough that it's annoying. What gives? and how do I fix it?

It happens on both my Mac Air and my iMac. Both are version 10.7.5

After hitting send a draft is still saved in the draft folder.

When responding to an email it automatically saves into the draft folder which is great! However, after hitting send, the email stays in the draft folder. I do hear the "swoosh" sound so I know the email is sent, but I have to go in and delete the emails in the draft folder occassionally. I have received emails back from people even though the message is still in drafts so I know they are being received.

Is this a Gmail account? I've seen that behavior and the solution has been to turn off the feature of saving drafts to the server (see Mail - Preferences - Accounts - Mailbox Behaviors).

TS3276 Lion mail; sent emails show up in the draft folder as well as the sent folder. Often the draft will appear a day after the email was actually sent

Lion mail
Emails that have been Sent show up in the Draft folder as well as th e Sent folder.
Often they may not show up in Draft folder until the next day.
Is there a correction for this?

no, I only use mac as my incoming and outgoing server.
What I did was un check the draft box in the mail preferences,
and will see if that works. Since I use only the computer for emails
the cloud isnt being used to its max anyway.
Thanks taking time to share

Why does email appear in the draft folder after email is sent

could someone tell me why emails I am sending appear in the draft folder even after the email has been sent and is in the sent folder?

Do you get draft emails every time your write an email, or do you just have a pesky email in drafts? There's a big difference.
If it happens every time, it could be that your email isn't being sent to your recipient. If it happened only once, it's just an incomplete email you haven't sent or deleted yet.
Which is your situation?

Mail remaining in the Draft-Folder after sending

When I write a mail that takes more than 10 minutes, it is automatically saved in the Draft-Folder.
Then, when it has been sent, it remains in the Draft-Folder.
If I relaunch the Mail-program, this same mail is twice present in the Draft-Folder (!!!).
This makes no sense, since the message has been sent.
Is that any new Bug with Mail and IMAP-protocol?

I have the same problem.
When I send an email
- one copy goes to the draft folder an another copy of the email goes to the sent folder.
I believe the copy in the draft folder is a ghost.
I went to my online goggle mail and saw the email was sent.

Workspace cannot start process, puts it in the Draft folder

Hi!
My processes which i have used many times in workspace now cannot be started. Workspace puts them in the draft folder and doesn't do more. Please help!
Kind regards
Sedat,

Have you changed your form?
It looks like it can submit the form.
Are you using the process fields from Form Designer, or you're own submit button.
