Exchange 2007 Resource mailboxes no longer auto accepting meeting requests

Ww have a large number of meeting rooms/resources, until today they were auto accepting meeting/booking requests and responding to the requester, if there was a conflict it auto rejected and advised the requestor of the conflict.
Today, none of them are accepting or responding.
I went into one of these via OWA and everything is set correctly, no changes have been made that I am aware of. Using EMS I ran the cmdlet  MailboxCalendarSettings <resourceID>| fl, the result was:
AutomateProcessing                  : AutoAccept

ObjectState                         : Unchanged
As far as I can see, this is all correct, but the resource, along with ALL others, have stopped accepting meetings/bookings and are not responding to requests.
Does anyone have an idea what has happened and how I can fix this?
NOTE:
In an attempt to resolve this, I used
Set-MailboxCalendarSettings <ResourceID> -AutomateProcessing:Autoaccept
No change has been seen

I wonder when the majority of people will understand that the best decisions are made close to the coffee machine and not in a conference room :)
Glad to hear that it worked for you though.

Exchange 2007 shared mailbox

How do you connect an exchange 2007 shared mailbox to your iphone? Normal "user" mailboxes work just fine. Is this supported by Apple and or Microsoft?

Hi
You can not control this behaviour from Exchange. This is controlled by Outlook.
Outlook chooses the from address from what additional mailbox you are replying from (just as you see :-))
There are a lot of registry tweaks for Outlook, but I don't think there are one to control this.
I see 3 possible sollutions.
1. The users can choose them self
2. You give the users "Send As" permissions on the mailbox
3. you use this tool

Auto-accept friend requests

Hello, is there any way to auto-accept friend requests? Or at least change a setting on my account so people won't need my authorization eveytime someone adds me to their contact list?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

We have no gaurantees that every friend request that arrives is sent by someone we really know. Verifying the authenticity of each contact/friend request is a key security feature. So, I would not foresee the folks at Skype adding any kind of auto-acceptance procedure.

Having to re-accept meeting requests on iPhone after initial acceptance in Outlook

I've searched these forums for awhile and all syncing issues seem to dance around the actual issue I'm having.
Currently have an iPhone 4 running IOS 6.1.2. Business is running Microsoft Outlook 2007 and I'm connecting to Exchange through OWA.. I have no syncing issues when creating meeting requests from my phone or vice versa like others have had and I have not had any issues with meetings being deleted.
However, since updating from IOS 5 to IOS 6, I do have an issue where if I accept a meeting request inside of Outlook, it does not sync and clear out the meeting request as "accepted" on my iPhone. The only way to remove the notification is to select the request in the calendar and accept it a 2nd time and thereby sending a 2nd acceptance to the meeting organizer.
I've tried everything from changing Outlook settings in order to delete meeting invitations after acceptance to the numerous suggestions found in these forums though none specifically solve this particular issue.
Any help or direction to the thread where this might be solved would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Has anyone figured out a solution to this yet? I have an iPhone 5s and an iPad Mini. I have my Outlook 2010 calendars synced on both my iPhone and iPad Mini. If I accept a meeting request in Outlook, it still appears in the Inbox in my calendar on both my iPhone and iPad Mini. If I accept the meeting request on my iPhone, it still appears in my Inbox on my calendar on my iPad Mini.
I have my Outlook set to delete meeting requests/invites after I have accepted them, and that works in Outlook, yet they still remain on my iDevices. I have restarted both devices, and I have backed up iCloud again on both devices. I don't want to have to accept meeting requests on both my iPhone and iPad each time I receive them because that makes me look foolish. I also don't want to see the meeting requests in my Inbox on my iPad after I already accepted it on my iPad because the little number 1 in the red circle (signifying an alert on my calendar) is annoying.
Who can solve this problem so that after I accept a meeting request in Outlook, that invite does not appear anymore in my Inbox for my iPhone and iPad calendars? Please! Thank you in advance.

Issue with Update Rollup 5 for Exchange 2010 SP3 - Mailboxes that were auto mapped not working

Below is my response in another thread but creating a new one in the hopes that someone has the same issue and a solution besides mine below.
Ever since we installed Update Rollup 5 for SP3 Exchange 2010 mailboxes that were auto mapped are not accessible. They all get the same error.
Cannot expand the folder. The set of folders cannot be opened. The attempt to log on to the Microsoft Exchange has failed.
What I have been doing is removing the users permission, then adding them back using the noautomap switch in Powershell. After doing that, the user manually adds the mailbox and all is well.
Just a note here, I suspect it may have something to do with the version of Outlook 2010. We are running an older version here. I think only SP1 with no other incremental updates. Office is up to SP2. Also, one of the users I was working with could not access
the mailbox no matter what we tried but she can walk over to another workstation and open Outlook and access the very same mailbox so that pretty much proves its software related particularly with Outlook.
I cannot reproduce the problem on a workstation (XP) with a newer version of Outlook.
This has been wearing me out and I suspected the Update Rollup all long. Now I am confident as others are having the same problem. If you find out anything on how to fix this other than the steps above, let me know.

Not sure why it was suggested to use the auto mapping feature to grant permissions because that is the component that is causing the issue. Also, there is nothing wrong with the auto configuration because the user can access their own mailbox just fine and
also select mailboxes in their Outlook that were NOT auto mapped.
With that said, here is how I fixed them all.
Remove the permissions using the Exchange Console. Don't forget Send As
Wait about 15 minutes. The mailbox should disappear from the users Outlook
Open an Exchange PowerShell window and run the following command:
.\add-mailboxpermissionsnoautomap.ps1 -Identity mailbox -User user -AccessRights FullAccess
Have the user add the mailbox to their Outlook using the manual process.
All is well....
If you don't have the PS script add-mailboxpermissionsnoautomap.ps1, you can download it. I stumbled across it a few years ago and use it all the time. If you can't find it, just use the Exchange built in command for adding mailbox folder permissions but
specify automap $false.
The idea here is to grant the user access without auto mapping.

Exchange 2010 - Resource Mailbox won't send external notification email

Exchange 2010 with SP1. These mailboxes used to respond to outside booking requests, when we were running Exchange 2007. I've verified that -ProcessExternalMeetingMessages is set to $true. The mailbox responds to internal requests with an email.
All users are allowed to make "Resource In-Policy Requests".
I've tried booking from an email address that was setup as a Contact in Exchange - still no luck.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Could you share what settings did you use for SMTP connectors?
I have tried:
Authentication – Externally Secured
Permission Group – Exchange Servers
I can send emails via these connectors, but Room Mailbox still deletes requests from external sender.
Both organizations have Exch 2010 sp3 RU6, and AD forest 2008R2 level.

Exchange 2010 resource mailbox automatically opening along with user email account

I've created a number of resource mailboxes for conference rooms, however one of them continuously opens in my Outlook profile. Deleting the profile doesn't seem to help, and it follows me around (it does it in my local Outlook 2010 profile, as well as my
Outlook 2013 profile in our Citrix environment).
Right-clicking the mailbox and selecting Close presents a box saying, "This group of folders is assicated with an email account. To remove the account, click the File Tab, and on the Info tab, click Account Settings. Select the e-mail account, and then
click Remove."
Unfortunately the profile is not configured to open this account, it's configured to only open my account (a domain admin). I've also gone into the settings of my account in Outlook and it is not set to open the resource mailbox as an additional mailbox
on the Advanced tab, so I'm not sure where it's getting this setting.
Since the issue seems to be unrelated to the actual Outlook profile, I looked at both mailbox objects within the Exchange Management Console and can find nothing in either object that would be instructing Outlook to open both mailboxes.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Seems like it's auto-mapped to the account. Run Remove-mailboxpermissions against it, hopefully it will 'refresh' the settings. If it still doesn't work, check the msExchDelegateListLink for the resource mailbox.

Exchange 2007 Export-Mailbox Error Message on only certain mailbox

I have searched high and low for a solution to this, but no such luck. Hopefully someone has had the same issue and can help me out.
I am attempting to export and then remove a date range for mailboxes before I migrate to an Exchange 07 server. The mailboxes range in the 10 GB range. I am attempting to use the Exchange 2007 cmdlet to do this with due to it does not have a 2 GB limit like the Exmerge of past.
The command I am using is as follows:
[PS] C:\>Export-Mailbox -Identity User -StartDate "01/01/07" -EndDate "01/30/08"
-IncludeFolders "\Inbox","\Sent Items" -PSTFolderPath c:\PST\pst.pst
This command works fine on some of the mailboxes in the Exchange03 system. But on some of the mailboxes I am getting the following error.
Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. Failed to copy messages to t
he destination mailbox store with error:
MAPI or an unspecified service provider.
ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000, error code: -1056749164
Any ideas?

Hello Joe Rod (and others)
Thought I'd bring this over as a cross post because no-one seems to be picking it up in the 'admin' section. I believe I'm having a similar issue to yourself, as detailed below:
Hi all,
I've already posted this same question elsewhere, but if anyone here can resolve the issue or suggest a better way (without using archiving software - yet!), I'd be most grateful. I'd even be happy if someone can replicate the problem so I know I'm not going mad... I'm trying to set up a quick & dirty quarter year pst mail archive for one of our users on our Exchange 2007 (SP1) box. Using the command:
export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -enddate "01/03/2007"
I come up against this error:
Error occurred in the step: Moving messages. Failed to copy messages to the destination mailbox store with error: MAPI or an unspecified service provider. ID no: 00000000-0000-00000000, error code: -1056749164
Which I understand is a fairly standard permissions error. Problem is that I know the permissions are set correctly, having tested the function by removing the -enddate parameter; and getting a successful export.
I worked out after a while that the command seems to fall over when it hits a subfolder, so I tested this by using the -includefolders parameter. The command:
export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox' -enddate "01/03/2007"
will fail if there are any subfolders under '\inbox'. Add the names of the subfolders:
export-mailbox -id userA -pstfolderpath \\testpath\test.pst -includefolders '\inbox\subfolder1' -enddate "01/03/2007"
and as long as those subfolders don't have any subfolders, I will get a successful export.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers
Dan
If anyone is able to replicate this, please let me know, I'd love to get this sorted. If it is a known problem - can I use someone's PSS contact please?!

Exchange 2007/2013SP1 mailbox (15GB) migration stalled.

We have successfully migrated all our mailboxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013SP1, except one mailbox with the 15GB size, which stalled at 95%, even we tried "Resume-MoveRequest",
but again the same error:
Here is the error:

4/14/2014 10:37:56 AM [XXXXXXXX] Fatal error TooManyMissingItemsPermanentException has occurred.

Can you tell us more please. I have the same problem. I changed the value to
ContentVerificationMissingItemThreshold = 100, 100, MaxInt
And that didn't help. Can you tell us what you did specifically.

Exchange 2010 resource mailbox double booking issue..

Hi,
I have moved the meeting room mailbox from exchange 2003 to 2010:
set-Mailbox -Identity:<resourcename> -Type:Room
but after that, the meeting room can be double booking in the same time.
I have tried folllowing command, but it's failded.
Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity <mailbox identity> -AllowConflicts:$false
Thanks.

Hi Martina,
I appreciate this is an old post, however if you do pick up on this could you please advise on your statement from the above:
"Even if the room sends a Decline, as it should when a conflict is found, you will still see that meeting request in your own Calendar."
This is the exact behaviour happening at a customer of ours at the moment. However they don't want the meeting requests to appear/remain in the Calendar of the person trying to book the meeting room.
Do you know of a way to stop this behaviour?
Do you know if the meeting request is only populated in the Calendar of the user who tries to book an appointment in the resource calendar or does this appear in other perspective attendees Calendars?
Many Thanks,
Matt.

Exchange 2010 resource mailbox delegate still getting attachments

I have a user that is set as a delegate on a resource mailbox, when an attachment is added to a meeting request the resource mailbox is deleting the attachment. However, the delegate of said resource mailbox is still receiving the attachment but my
user does not want the delegate to receive the attachment. Here are the resource settings:
AutomateProcessing : AutoAccept
AllowConflicts : False
BookingWindowInDays : 180
MaximumDurationInMinutes : 1440
AllowRecurringMeetings : True
EnforceSchedulingHorizon : True
ScheduleOnlyDuringWorkHours : False

RequestInPolicy :

V>
RemoveOldMeetingMessages : True
AddNewRequestsTentatively : True
ProcessExternalMeetingMessages : True
DefaultReminderTime : 15
RemoveForwardedMeetingNotifications : False
Is it possible to have the attachment deleted from this email that the delegate receives?

Hi,
I would like to clarify the following thing:
Setting Delete Attachments means that the attachment information in a meeting request does not appear in the resource's calendar. But it would appear in the meeting email original content of Inbox.
I'm afraid there is no direct way to delete the attachments of meeting requests before they go into delegate's inbox. But there is a workaround, you can new rule on Outlook to delete all attachments that are sent to delegate. (Note: If you new this rule,
all attachments that are sent to the delegate will be deleted, not only meeting requests.)
Hope my clarification is helpful.
If there are any problems, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Amy

Outlook 2013 not automatically configuring Exchange (2007) account when running the Auto Account Setup

In previous versions, once I launched Outlook, it would automatically detect/passthrough my username and email address into the fields so that I could just click next and be done. In Outllok 2013 on Windows 2008 R2 this doesn't appear to be working even
thought I am able to successfully resolve my autodiscover domain.

Hi,
Is there any error when you can’t connect your Outlook 2013 to Exchange 2007?
If the autodiscover service is configured correctly, please change a computer to have a try. In this local windows 2008 R2, please check the following settings in Internet Explorer:
Click Settings > Internet Options > Connections > LAN settings, please make sure there is no proxy server set there. Only “Automatically detect settings” option is checked.

Looking for Script Exchange-2007: Import-Mailbox Calendar Folder on multiple mailboxes {Distribution Group}

Hi,
I'm looking for a PowerShell script which will import a Calendar events into student's mailbox (Calendar). Those students are located in a distribution group and I would like to target the distribution group; I'm trying to simulate what I want to achieve
in the below code example, I would appreciate if anyone jump in and advise.
$Users = Import-Csv C:\users.csv | ForEach-Object{Get-DistributionGroup -Identity SC-1213} | Import-Mailbox -Identity $Users -PSTFolderPath c:\Calendar.pst -IncludeFolders '\Calendar' -StartDate -EndDate
Much appreciated..
Hussain

The logic doesn't work unless you are using StartDate and EndDate for the period when you change the item. As I said above, StartDate and EndDate are not the times when the meeting starts and ends - they are the times that the item was either added
or modified in the mailbox. Your filter was trying to pull items that were in the future.
And as I also said above, if you import a modified item, the original is
not going to be updated. You will have a duplicate meeting
on the calendar. You would have to remove the original
and import the updated item if this was how you wished to manage the updates. This is not nearly as effective as
sending meeting requests and updating those meetings.
For example, if we do things the way you are doing them, and we add a "Student Appreciation Bonfire" meeting to the calendar for April 12 at "The Quad", we would do the following:
On February 1, you get information for the meeting that needs to be imported
You create this new meeting in the PST calendar - "Student Appreciation Bonfire"; Date April 12, start 8:00 AM, end 12:00 noon; Location The Quad
You import the PST into everyone's calendar
You receive a note on March 12 saying the venue has changed to The River Beach, so you update this meeting in your PST
Since there are other calendar items in the PST, you import the update using StartDate of March 12 and EndDate of March 13 - the date that you changed the item, not the date the item occurs
At this point, all users have two meetings on their calendar - the original and the update
If, instead of doing it this way, you create a Student Actvities Calendar mailbox, you would handle it this way:
On February 1, you get information for the meeting that needs to be imported
You create this new meeting in the Corporate calendar - "Student Appreciation Bonfire"; Date April 12, start 8:00 AM, end 12:00 noon; Location The Quad
You invite everyone to the meeting
You receive a note on March 12 saying the venue has changed to The River Beach, so you update this meeting in that calendar and send out the update
At this point, all users have only the one meeting on their calendar - the update
Using the PST as the source for the meetings would work only for items that
will not be changed - holidays are a good example.

Cannot accept Meeting Request updates on iPhone

Hi,
When I am working at a client's account, I am sending or forwarding important meeting requests to my private mail.
Then, when I open that mail account on my iPhone, and open the meeting request mail, I can scroll to the bottom and see a 'mime-attachment.ics'.
When I click on this, I see the Event Details. And the bottom of my screen reads 'Add To Calendar'.
This works well.
When I update the meeting request at my client's account, I'll get a new mail from there in my private mail.
But when I open it on my iPhone and scroll to the 'mime-attachment.ics' and click on that, I will see the Event Details, but only Delete Event shows at the bottom.
When I click on that, the meeting is gone from my calendar.
I expected an 'Update Event'.
Help!

I accidently solved this problem.
When you put an invitation for a meeting in your mailbox on your iPhone, you can click on the attachment to view that meeting and ADD it to your (iPhone) calendar.
But when the meeting is updated (e.g. to another date), you get another mail with attachment on your iPhone, but when you click on the attachment you will view the (old) meeting and can only choose to DELETE that (not update).
But... and here it comes... Once you get back in the mail again, after you've deleted the old meeting, and click again on the meeting attachment, you will view the updated meeting and can choose ADD to your calendar.
That's it. Problem solved (in two steps).
