How to connect to MS Exchange Server?

Does anyone know how to connect to a local MS Exchange Server? I know the server name and the directory hierarchy path name for the server. How do I connect?

What is the purpose of connecting? If you just want to send/receive mail I think your question is already answered. If you want to interact with the server, say to read/write tasks, calendar, etc., well that too can be done but it gets pretty hairy.
If you have the money, a product call "Harmony for Exchange" by compoze is probably your quickest/easiet option (http://www.compoze.com/hcs_exchange.html). It provides a Java API into the Exchange Collaboration Data Objects -- all for a mere $8k per CPU.
Another option is J-Integra's Exchange bridge (http://www.intrinsyc.com/products/bridging/jintegra.asp), it is actually the foundation of Compoze's product. The J-Integra bridge ($3k per server) exposes proxy classes into the raw CDO. No problem if you have lots of CDO programming experience, not much fun for a novice.
I've heard that you can even use LDAP to interact with the server, but I don't have any experience with that. Anybody know of other options? I'm still struggling with these alternatives myself.

  • Mac computers in the office are not able to connect to our exchange server.

    We started facing this problem about a month ago in our office where the apple computers can not connect to the exchange server via outlook or applemail or anything for that matter. All the other computers can connect to the exchange server with no problems
    and the apple computers can even access the exchange server via OWA but the outlook and applemail apps would not connect to exchange. We have tried even deleting and re-creating some accounts on the apps but they still would not connect. At this point I am
    at a complete loss and I looked everywhere through google to find out if anyone else has faced this problem but to no avail.
    A little background information. This specific problem started happening after there was an un-expected series of power outages to the servers and they were shut down un-expectedly. I personally restored the servers and turned on all the services and made
    sure everything was up and running after the power outages and everything was working fine. Also the first instance of the problem with the mac computers only happened two days after the servers were back up and running again and they had no issues in those
    two days.
    Right now we do not have that many mac users in our offices (only 3-4 users) and I have instructed them to use the OWA in the meanwhile but it is however an inconvenience to them. By now you may have realized that I am not a very experienced server admin
    and I would really really appreciate any help. I extend my thanks in advance for any insight.

    Hi Martin,
    Thanks for the reply.
    Right now I have Apple mail and Outlook installed on my mac laptop and both the applications do not connect to the exchange server. Apple Mail simply does a long process when I give my credentials to create my account and then it gives an error saying it
    could not find the server while outlook quickly tells me that either the username or password is incorrect. At the same time I can connect to the server through outlook on my windows computer without any problems whatsoever.
    From your reply, I gather that the VIA headers only affect Apple mail and should not affect Outlook app on the mac but right now, neither apps are connecting to the exchange server.
    Either way I am trying to find out how to remove the VIA headers because it does not seem that we are using Kemp on the exchange server. Right now I do not have the in depth knowledge that I need because I was not involved in the implementation of our server
    system, that was taken care of by a service provider and I was put in charge of mostly simple admin work. Now we are out of contract with the service provider so  pretty much everything has fallen onto my shoulders.
    If possible, would you mind pointing me in the right direction to finding out if I am using a L7 load balancer and how I would go about removing the VIA headers?

  • Unable to connect to MS Exchange server on ipad4 after upgrade to iOS 7.1.2

    I received a new iPad 4 through work.  Upgraded to iOS 7.1.2, but now I'm not able to connect to the Exchange server.  Contacted IT through work, they have no idea how to correct it.  They say all of my settings are fine.  The error message says "Cannot Get Mail   The connection to the server failed."  Any thoughts?

    Hello harrisk927,
    It may help to remove and readd the account on your device.
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the affected email account.
    Tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.

  • How To Setup A Local Exchange Server Integrated With Office365 For A Single Mailbox

    Hello,
    We recently migrated to Office365 but had an issue since we need more than 16 simultaneous connections to a single mailbox. Because of this, we need to deploy a local Exchange Server that will be used to host a single mailbox that requires up to 500 simultaneous
    connections for a Contact Center application. I'm looking for information on how to setup the local Exchange Server to basically create a local instance of a mailbox hosted on Office 365. So we can have our application open the numerous simultaneous connections
    to our local server which will then connection to Office 365 to send/receive email through the mailbox hosted on Office365.
    Please let me know if you have any information or resources you can direct me toward.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi,
    To deploy local Exchange server integrated with Office 365, we can depend on Exchange Server Deployment Assistant:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/exdeploy2013/Checklist?state=2419-W-AAAAAAAAQAAAAAEAAAAAAAA%7e
    Please note that there may be 9646 error if there are many simultaneous connections at the same time.

    Hi,
    The "<cfexchangeConnection>" tag supports both "HTTP"
    and "HTTPS" connection.. So Please make sure the username has the
    "Outlook Web Access".
    Also try removing the <!--- protocol = "http"--->

    tag.

  • Connecting to MS Exchange server

    We are going to implement outlook functionality in our project. So that, we are trying to connect Microsoft Exchange server.
    Sofar, I found the some information reg this thing from google.
    Before connecting MS Exchange server, first I have to connect LDAP server using JNDI API.
    Is any Java API provided for connecting to MS Exchange server from LDAP. If is there, How can I connect to MS Exchange server using J2EE application from LDAP?

    No, not from JNDI.
    You can manage Exchange Server via CDOEXM.
    Details on CDOEXM can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/e2k3/e2k3/_esdk_reference_cdoex.asp
    Not being a Java developer, I don't know how you invoke COM objects from Java.

  • Hi - for some reason, my IPAD3 mail client has decided it can no longer connect to my Exchange server.

    Hi - for some reason, my IPAD3 mail client has decided it can no longer connect to my Exchange server.  It's worked like a charm for weeks.  Any thoughts?
    For the record, I've got a POP mail account that is working fine on the machine and the WIFI is up and running (Safari is loading fine).
    Thanks

    Hi Jim,
    Your issue is the most FAQ in the forums, it is an ongoing problem with Tiger waiting to be fixed by Apple. Till then, forget your aliases and use either Command-K or from the Finder Go-->Connect to Server and enter the remote Mac's IP address to connect.
    Also, Open Utilities-->Terminal and type lookupd -flushcache (Press Return) and reboot. Do this for both macs.

  • How to connect to a Sql server from Oracle using db link

    Hi All,
    Does anybody have any idea about how to connect to a sql server from oracle database using db link to syncronize the data? I need to pull the data from Sql server table to Oracle tables and relay messages back to the sql server.
    Thank you,
    Praveen.

    we have 2 products - DG4MSQL and DG4ODBC.
    DG4ODBC is for free and requires a 3rd party ODBC driver and it can connect to any 3rd party database as long as you use a suitable ODBC driver
    DG4MSQL is more powerfull as it is designed for MS SQL Server databases and it supports many functions it can directly map to SQL Server equivalents - it can also call remote procedures or participtae in distributed transactions. Please be aware DG4MSQL requires a license - it is not for free.
    Check out Metalink and you'll find notes how to configure both products.

  • Need free OST viewer tool to help to view OST files without connecting to MS Exchange Server and MS Outlook.

    Need free OST viewer tool to help to view OST files without connecting to MS Exchange Server and MS Outlook.

    Hi Howard,
    As I know, Microsoft does not provide any kind of inbuilt tool or free software to only view OST file, even without the connectivity with exchange server (Offline).
    Try SysTools OST Viewer freeware which helps you to view all OST file save at your system in an easy way, whether you want to see the attachments or other items of OST file.
    Note: This is a free inbuilt utility, but try it on your own risk as I am not much aware about it and its working. But this tool sounds good according to your requirement and hopefully it would give you 100% satisfaction.
    Thanks

  • Can't connect to the exchange server

    I'm having trouble geting Mail to work with the exchange server here at work. any ideas?

    I tried Mick's suggestions but they don't help. One problem seems to be that my boxname on the exchange server unfortunately has a space in it ("firstname lastname", windows style). Upon initial setup the configurator won't allow this, but even if I set up a dummy username (without spaces) and then add the space into the account information afterward, I still see "could not connect to this exchange server" when I click on "Check Again" in the Mail Connection Doctor.
    The outgoing SMTP server is configured as servername.companyname.local, port 25, no SSL, and no authentication, and outgoing mail works fine... so it's not a routing or DNS lookup issue on the local side.
    The other annoying thing is that the instructions at
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml1098.html
    say that the "Assist me..." button should bring up something called Network Diagnostics. But that button is always greyed out, and spotlight doesn't turn up any apps by that name anywhere on the system.
    Can anyone suggest a way of troubleshooting just where things are breaking down? I looked at the most obvious console logs and didn't see anything.
    Thanks in advance!

  • How to connect j2me to sip server

    Hi friends ...
    I am new to this topic and i just want to know how to connect a real sip server with the j2me application .
    I tried using the GoSIP demo given in wtk2.5 . its working fine with local SIP proxy and registrar given in that .
    But i want to connect to a real SIP Server. Even i have a registered sip number.
    Can any one please help me how to sort out this problem as i am very new to this topic. Is there any source given for this ??? If so please tell me ...
    Thanks in advance ......

    is it possible to make
    voice calls from the GoSIP example given in the
    wtk2.5 demo examples ?
    Probably not. Have you tried?
    I have a sip account and i just want to know how to
    register my sip account with the sip server using a
    j2me application .
    Change the SipHeader and / or SipAddress
    What are the changes to be made in the GoSIP example
    to connect to a real sip server and not to the sip
    proxy server
    See above
    and what are the syntax to be changed
    in it ????
    Syntax is a property of the programming language, not the application.
    And one question mark is enough to pose a question, 4 is overkill and perceived as rudeness.
    Please help me in solving out this problem ....
    What have you done to help yourself?
    Read the javadoc for jsr-180

    is there a demo available...possibly a demo application as well?
    or site that shows or uses OLAP technology using java.
    thanx in advance

    I was thinking about how to achieve that. But I have not found any opensource JDBC driver or package that provides the feature you are looking for.
    However there is still a change of building some kind of bridge through web services. You could implement a web service with the .NET framework, exposing whichever you need of MS Analysis service to a Java WS client.
    Good luck

  • Mail refuses to connect to my Exchange Server

    I have an Exchange Server which also functions as an IMAP server. I cannot get mail to connect this server using the IMAP protocol. Thunderbird on the same machine connects to this exchange server just fine using IMAP. And Mail does not have problem connecting to other IMAP servers. Any idea on where I can look to troubleshoot?

    I'm in the same boat and have been banging my head against this all day. Have you found an answer yet?
