Exchange 2007 SP1 don't send or receive emails after main DC shutdown

I have two DC (DC1 and DC2), both of them GC and DNS.
After shutting down DC1 (with all the roles instaled), Exchange 2007 stops to sending and receive emails, but Outlook clients can process the request of sending emails (like it has been sent) and "Connected To Exchange" is showed correctly.
If I switch on again DC1, the pending messages are sent and received (internal or external).
I thought that making GC also the DC2, Exchange could work in the same manner in a DC1 failover scenario.
Maybe any kind of info in Exchange for main DC is cached and needs to be updated or so?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
DC and GC hard failures are generally handled seamlessly by DSAccess if other servers are available. However, GC failures can impact Outlook clients harshly depending on the version of Outlook being used. Worst case scenario is that Outlook ‘hangs’ and the
user must restart. The exception is Outlook XP (Outlook 2002) which can automatically reconnect to a new GC without a restart.

Anyone have any solution to problems with iphone 3G not sending or receiving email after the recent upgrade?

Uprgaed yesterday & now can't send or receive emails.
My account is set up using mobile me and was working fine until I installed the recent upgrade last night.
It doesn't make any difference if I have wi-fi enabled or disabled.
I have checked the stmp and inputted all the correct info i.e. username/password. No joy.
Very, very frustrating

try deleting the account and re-adding it.

Unable to Connect, cannot send nor receive emails after updating to 10.9.4

I just installed the OS X Maverick 10.9.4 and Mail does not work at all. It looks like there was not internet connection. But there is. None of the accounts work (iCloud, Gmail, etc.) All of them work when using the web version. It is just Mail that does not work. What to do??? I can't use Mail at all.

Cannot send or receive email after 7.1 os upgrade

I upgraded to the latest 7.1 os to find that my smtp is no longer working. I cannot receive any e-mails any longer. Does anyone have a fix for this? I only did it today since the upgrade is new. I use optimum for email. Very frustrating as this was working fine before. I already did a factory reset, deleted and put in new account information and still does not work. Thanks

keep plugging at it. ios 7 works fine. You just have not got the set up quite right.
you are right to delete and re-enter the account.
google 'optimum email set up', and make sure you have the right servers names, both incoming and out going, as well as the server port eyc. try their help page for any special tricks.
if they have changed anything since you first signed up, they may have moved you automatically, but a new machine trying to log on would need whatever the current stuff is.

Exchange 2007 - User's mailbox disappeared in EMC but they can still send and receive email

We have a user that was complaining about not being in the address book anymore. After I did a little rooting around in management console I noticed that their mailbox was no longer listed under Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox, but what's weirder
is I can do a search and find her listed in the results - at which point I can right-click her name and do everything I normally can with no problem. Listing all of the mailboxes with PS shows her still there too. As far as I know, she is the only user
having this problem.
She can send and receive email just fine, but like I said, she is no longer in the global address list so other users have trouble sending her stuff. At her computer, I tried repairing her email (under account settings) but the process would fail when
searching for her settings. I don't know if this is a stupid thing to add, but I did run Clean-MailboxDatabase on our first storage group to see if her mailbox had been deleted or disconnected or whatnot but nothing is currently showing up in Recipient
Configuration -> Disconnected Mailbox.
Some info on our setup:
Exchange 2007 on Windows Server 2003r2
AD is on Windows Server 2008r2
Her computer is running Outlook 2010
I did restart our Exchange server 2 days ago to update VMWare tools, but no Windows updates were installed. She couldn't tell me exactly when this problem started, but it was more-than-likely in the last couple of days as she was recently married and
I had to change her name in AD and Exchange - so everything was confirmed 100% functioning 2-3 weeks ago.
I'm at a lost for what the issue could be, but then again Exchange isn't exactly my forte, so any help would be much appreciated.

First things first - is her mailbox hidden from address lists? Run
Get-Mailbox <alias> | Fl HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled to find out. It probably isn't, but we need to clear this, just in case.
Now, assuming it is not hidden, have you searched for both her maiden and married names in your directory? Often, when the name on a mailbox is changed, the display name is not - and vice versa. Also, has her email address also changed?
If so, has a secondary proxy address been added to reflect her maiden name? I'd do this, just to be sure things aren't lost that should be delivered to her.
I can't think of anything else obvious right now. After you've checked these things, get back to us with their results.

Improper decoding of base64 encoded attachment on Exchange 2007 SP1

I'm using Exchange 2007 SP1. My java application sends email to users of exchange 2007 SP1. The email contains an email as an attachment which is base64 encoded . This email when sent to users on exchange 2007 SP1 shows blank attachment. The same email when sent to users on different exchange (e.g. Exchange 2003) shows the correct attachment i.e. the attachments are not blank. While sending the mail i'm setting name of the attachment in Content-Type header but it is not there when we look at the rfc contents of the mail received on ex 2007 SP1. It seems exchange 2007 is not able to decode the base 64 contents properly. Below are the rfc contents of the mail which show few headers in the attachment part instead of the base64 content. Please suggest some solution to it. It's urgent.

Exchange 2003 sp2 to exchange 2007 sp1 upgrade error

Hi,
We had Windows 2003 DCs and Exchange 2003 servers. We migrated AD DCs to windows 2008 R2 at parent domain.
We have one parent domain and 10 child domains in remote sites .3 remote sites have been migrated to windows 2008 R2.
Now at parent domain I am trying to install exchange 2007 SP1 on a server with windows 2008 R2 SP1. I am facing certain issues:
1. When I run setup /PrepareSchema on this new exchange server , the organization check fails with error stating that : cannot find at least one DC running windows 2003 SP1 or later in DC=xyx,DC=com. This could be the result of moving DC objects in AD. Check
that at least one DC running windows server 2003 SP1 or later is located in the "Domian Controllers" OU and rerun setup".
2. When I try to install exchange server 2007 , I get the following error
Object cannot be saved because its ExchangeVersion property is 0.10 (14.0.100.0), which is not supported
by the current version 0.1 (8.0.535.0). You will need a later version of Exchange.".
Can any one shed light on this issue.
Regards
Syed

You cannot install Exchange 2007 SP1 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1 as it is unsupported.
Only version of Exchange 2007 supported when OS is Windows 2008 R2 or R2 SP1 is Exchange 2007 SP3.
Where are you installing Exchange ? child or parent domain ?
2. When I try to install exchange server 2007 , I get the following error "Object
cannot be saved because its ExchangeVersion property is 0.10 (14.0.100.0), which is not supported by the current version 0.1 (8.0.535.0). You will need a later version of Exchange.".
Above error indicates that Exchange setup is trying to modify
a version of an object which might have been created when organization is prepared for Exchange 2010. don't you have exchange 2010 Servers already in your environment ?
Please give more information about your current email infrastructure
and whether if you are installing exchange on parent or child domain?

Migrating Exchange 2007 SP1 to Exchange 2013

Follow the Exchange Deployment Assistant to the letter and you will not have issues.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/exdeploy2013/Checklist.aspxAnd my guide:You need to make sure your OutlookAnywhere and AutoDiscover settings are setup properly along with Split-DNS. OutlookAnywhere and Split-DNS are vital for future-proofing your Exchange configuration and making it work properly now, regardless if you use Exchange 2007, 2010, or 2013. For Exchange 2013, OutlookAnywhere is a requirement and Split-DNS is Best Practice. If you are on Exchange 2007 or 2010, and you do not have OutlookAnywhere enabled, enable OutlookAnywhere and follow this guide.You should always use NTLM over Basic authentication, as Basic sends the username and password in the clear, and NTLM is Windows Authentication. On Exchange 2013, you also have a new option...

This is a slightly daunting task I must admit. I am migrating an old exchange 2007 SP1 installation over to 2013 SP1 and looking for good advice and/or tips. I am finding the whole thing slightly unnerving as there seems to be about a million caveats give or take a few thousand. There seems to be about the same amount of tips, tricks and guides as well, but sadly they are not quite consistent and some are down right contradicting each other.I'm reading similar questions here on spiceworks, and it seems like I'm reading about one horrible episode after another. By now, I assume most have migrated already, so I though I might pick some brains and figure out the best way to do this ;)Might software like CodeTwo Exchange Migration or Dell Migration Manager be a good idea? Are there maybe similar tools available as well?Any feedback is very...

Prepare the domains as required. You have to prep the forest first for SP3 before upgrading Exchange itself

BPA shows domain prepped for Exchange 2007 SP1 after SP3 install

Hello,
I have a Client with a domain that is at 2003 domain functional level and 2000 forest level.
The client had Exchange 2007 SP1 and I have just upgraded it to SP3. There is one CAS, one Hub Transport, and one Mailbox Server (All three had Exchange 2007 SP1).
The domain and forest were prepped earlier by someone else and when I ran the installation program, it didn't pop up any errors on any of the servers.
The upgrade to SP3 is in preperation to Exchange 2010. Everything is working ok. I have checked:
1) In ADSIEdit, Exchange System Objects properties: Object Version =11221.
2) In ADSIEdit, Services>Microsoft Exchange>Organization: Object Version =11222
3) In ADSIEdit, RangeUpper value of ms-Exch-Schema-Version-Pt object = 14625
However, When I run the Exchange BPA, it reports that the domain is prepped for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (In informational items). This is an informational item and not a warning or alert. However, I am concerned. Is this normal, and will it affect
the migration to Exchange 2010?
Thanks,
HA

Hello Ha20,
Based on my experience, it will not affect the migration. However, it’s recommended to prepare the schema again to avoid any potential issues.

I cannot send nor receive emails. The message I get is that I need to type in my account password which I've done but still unable to send or receive. I get texts fine

My Iphone 4 is new, and I have been able to send and receive texts, but cannot send nor receive emails. I get the message that I need to input my password for my yahoo account which I've done many times. When I type messagefor outgoing it only allows me to save as a draft. Any ideas?

Are you positive you're typing the correct password in? You might want to try and reset your password, and try again. You'll get texts because it isn't connected to your email account.

Exchange 2013 cant send or receive email

new server with clean install
static IP
firewall is configured for smtp on port 25
single exchange 2013 server
checked DNS settings in servers tab
checked mail connectors per MS KB's
deleted all connectors and rebuilt only 1 send and 1 receive connector
still not sending or receiving email they stay stuck in drafts and email never gets delivered coming in
David Sheetz MCP

Can users send email to each other, in house? Is the Exchange Server part of a domain, if so, what OS is the Domain Controller? Check list to run through:
1. Port 25 is forwarded to Exchange Server IP address
2. Send Connector is using MX Records and using * for the domains
3. Receive Connector has the appropriate domain listed for the Accepted Domains, ie. Contoso.com not just .local
4. mailbox username convention has been specified and you clicked the "Apply" link to the right after creating the mailbox username policy
5. After the above, go into Services and restart the Exchange Mailbox Store

Problems sending and receiving emails using exchange when on wifi - OK when using Sim Card

I've an iphone 4S using Exchange to link up with company server, this works fine when using 3G - phone's Sim Card. But when I join a wifi network I can no longer send and receive emails until I disconnect from the wifi network.
Has anybody any ideas?

Hi Derick,
you need to make sure the following is met:
1- router is correclt setup and antennas are plugged
2- users are withint good range from the router
3- use a good channel for the router, one of either 1, 6 or 11. try to figure out which is the best channel to choose using a freeware site survey tool.
4- ssid configuration doesn´t involve eap and session timeouts.
if you have doubts, let me know
cheers
