Mail w/Exchange 2007 Account- Reply arrow appears, but reply not found

Hello out there,
I'm really hoping someone can help with this. I have a problem, and it affects all three of the Macs I regularly use: an iMac at home, a MacBook on the road, and and iMac at the office. I have three mail accounts configured identically on all these Macs: Gmail, MobileMe, and an Exchange 2007 account, which uses the Web Services Edition. In short, everything is completely up to date all the way round. Oh, and I also use an iPhone which accesses my Exchange account for mail as well.
My problem is this: I reply to a message in either the MobileMe or the Gmail account and presto, the reply arrow appears and clicking on it instantly reveals my reply. Works as advertised. In the Exchange account, the arrow also appears, and shows up on whichever Mac I happen to be using. However, clicking on the arrow I get a message that says something like "reply not found, you may have deleted it." Which, of course, I haven't. If I search the Exchange account's sent mail folder I find it easily, so I know it's there.
I've tried all kinds of stuff, deleting the plist file, completely removing and reinstalling the Exchange account, rebuilding folders, all to no avail.
Anyone have any ideas? I would really like to resolve this and find it a major flaw, at least as it appears, in Apple's implementation of Exchange server support.
Thanks in advance!

I have 10.6.3 running on my iMac and the problem still exists - all reply and forward status arrows are basically inert; clicking on they does not show my my reply or forward. I don't believe that there is any preference that affects this behavior so it can only be some kind of bug.

Exchange 2007 - User getting 404 File or directory not found

Exchange 2007 OWA 404 - File or directory not found. I have two database on the same server and this problem is only affecting one database and the user in the other database is fine. I did a test and move the user to the other database and I gave
myself full access to the user mailbox and use OWA (Change mailbox) to access other user and later login as the user itself and everything is fine. I have thousands of user, and doing this is time consuming. Anythough on this?

Hi Tony,
According to the description, I notice that you have a problem on OWA. When logon OWA with users from specific database, get error "Exchange 2007 OWA 404 - File or directory not found".
I suggest check following points.
1. Please make sure OWA Virtual Directory in IIS is available.
2. Please make sure the OWA Virtual Directory in IIS has configured Basic Authentication by default.
3. Please try to re-build OWA VD for testing. I saw someone solved this issue by re-building OWA VD.
4. Since you have tested, moving mailbox to another database can auto-fix this issue, please also try to follow Ed to solve this issue.
Thanks

Mail and Exchange 2007 Assertion Failure

I have been using Mail with Exchange 2007 on SL since it came out without issue, until last week. Once I start Mail I experience the following issues:
1. Mail folders sometimes show as empty. Occasionally synchronizing the account corrects the issue, but often I need to restart Mail.
2. Messages are duplicated in my Inbox. The only way to correct this is to delete and readd my account.
3. Sent mail creates a draft message after the message has been sent. This usually goes away in 5-10 minutes of normal use.
4. I get the following error message around 5 times per second in the system log while Mail is open and connected to Exchange:
Mail[718]: * Assertion failure in -[EWSConnection sendMessage:forRequest:], /SourceCache/Message/Message-1077/MessageStores.subproj/EWSConnection.m:374\nRe ceived an unexpected error: Error Domain=EWSExchangeWebServicesErrorDomain Code=277 UserInfo=0x118be9740 "The operation couldn’t be completed.

I have only seen one person report this issue so far and the fix was to remove /Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. I tried that, but the issue was not resolved.
I am running Mail 4.2 on Snow Leopard 10.6.2 on a MBP 15" unibody. Any help is appreciated.

I too have been using Mail.app x Exchange 2007 since SL came out without issue. Very similar issues started exhibiting themselves last week for me, as well:
1. Mail folders sometimes show as empty (including the inbox). A restart of Mail fixes this.
2. New messages occasionally only show headers. A restart of Mail fixes this.
3. Mail will occasionally hang forever retrieving new messages.
4. Sending a message will occasionally return a failure message, when it was, in fact, delivered. If I choose to "Send Later", a duplicate message is immediately sent.
#1-3 are annoyances, #4's caused me to switch away from Mail.app--comes across as incredibly unprofessional to my user base and associates.
Here's just one of the hundreds of messages that appears in Console (these literally pop up every 2-5 seconds I have Mail.app open..):

Exchange 2007 account won't go online

Hi,
I am running OS X 10.6.4 on my MacBook, with the latest versions of everything available through Software Update.
I am unable to get iCal to work with my Exchange 2007 account. I can add the account through preferences, but it never shows up in the left-hand pane where all the other calendars go. I don't run into this problem with my other Google calendar, so it seems to be specific to the Exchange calendar. Curiously, there is no error message from iCal, which acts as if the calendar is there but does not put it online. In the "Online Status" my Exchange Calendar is listed, but if I select to bring the account online nothing happens.
As it happens I've been trying to get iCal to work since upgrading to Snow Leopard last October. Previously I had a different problem, in which the Exchange Calendar would show up in the left-hand pane but would ask for a "valid email address" for the account. It seemed at the time that the problem was that my address is not published in the GAL, but this is something I have no control over personally, and the system admin won't publish it for me. I found it curious that iCal requires this, but Mail and AddressBook presumably do not, as they set up instantly when I upgraded to Snow Leopard and have both worked flawlessly ever since.
I haven't come across anyone with a similar problem when Googling the problem, so this is probably a long shot, but does anyone have some advice on what might help here or how I can go about troubleshooting this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
nanoo

I had the exact same issue. Found nothing in the console logs other than "can't refresh account". Turns out my problem was wrong e-mail address with the exchange server. I used the exact e-mail address that this particular exchange expected and it added it to the panel on the left.
Our setup is a bit weird cause we have 2 exchange servers, but I let iCal figure out everything itself using the "old" exchange server and then afterwards went and edited the server settings to use the "new" server, and it kept working with these settings.
Just a bit annoying that iCal was so vague about what the problem was... Also didn't help that I upgraded and moved to the "new" server and changed my password all at once, so don't know what cause the problem in the first place.

Exchange 2007 account - trouble connecting at times and a question

Hi all, so, I have my Ex change 2007 account setup on my MacBook Pro but I seem to keep having an issue. WHen the account was initially setup, I was connected to my company via the Cisco VPNClient and the connection worked great - mail, iCal & AddressBook all connected and accessed data fine.
Now, I find that if I drop my VPN and then reconnect, Mail will not connect to the server and I get the Yield or tilde icon next to the account. In console, I'm getting these messages:
9/1/09 9:21:49 AM Mail[1349] -[SOAPParser:0x1163a34e0 parser:didStartElement:namespaceURI:qualifiedName:attributes:] Type not found in SOAPDocument for HTML (HTML)
Now, it seems that if I disconnect the VPN, quit Mail and leave it for a while (sorry, nothing scientific here yet) it will reconnect to the server after I have the VPN back up.
One point to make, I can't seem to get the Apple IPSec support to connect to my company's Cisco concentrator, hence the reason I keep using the Cisco sw.
So, that's my one problem - now for the additional questions: Is the Exchange support in SL Exchange Activesync or a different implementation? The reason I ask is that if it's exchange Activesync, there should be no reason I cannot connect to my Exchange front-end server without a vpn connection and sync mail, calendar & addressbook - right?
That doesn't seem to work, however which leads me to think it's not EAS.
Another question - is there any documentation on how to configure the advanced mail account options - External Server Path, for instance?
Thanks in advance...
Dave

TS3899 Sending a meeting invite from Exchange 2007 account located in Central Time from Outlook 2010 Email Client located in Eastern Time cause meeting to show up 1 hour early on iPhone

Sending a meeting invite from Exchange 2007 account located in Central Time from Outlook 2010 Email Client located in Eastern Time cause meeting to show up 1 hour early on iPhone.

The meeting invite is being sent from a Computer through the Outlook 2010 Email Client. Both Computer and Outlook 2010 are set to Eastern Time. The OWA (Outlook Web Access) for the 2007 account is set to Eastern Time. The Outlook 2010 Email Client is connected to an Exchange 2007 account and the Exchange server for the exchange 2007 account is located in Chicago (Central Time) and is set to Central Time. When the meeting invite is sent from the Outlook 2010 Client the recipient receives the invite on his/her iPhone(set and located in the Eastern Time Zone) and a mime-attachment.ics file is attached to the meeting invite email. There is no info displayed in the subject line or message body. If the iPhone user opens the attachment it displays the meeting date and time and any other info that was sent from Outlook. The Outlook 2010 user sets the meeting for 10:00am to 11:00am. when the meeting invite mime-attachment.ics file is opened on the iPhone the meeting is displayed as 9:00am to 10:00am. if the iPhone user adds the ics file to his/her calendar it adds a meeting event that is scheduled 1 hour earlier than it is supposed to be. I had the iPhone user to set Time Zone support on and off and there is no change.

HT3748 My exchange email account works in iPhone but it does not work in mac, how do i solve it?

I've tried several times to add my work exchange email account on macBook Pro but it cant connect to the server. It works fine on my iPhone. Is there any solution to this problem?

Are you connecting to Exchange 2003? If yes, Mail requires Exchange 2007 and higher. Your iPhone can connect but not Mail. You would have to setup as POP in Mail. Microsoft Entourage 2008 connects to Exchange 2003. It's old End of Life software so it will receive no further updates.
If you are using one of the newer versions of Exchange you might need to turn off AutoDiscover settings. This link has directions for Microsoft Outlook:

HT1529 how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

The reason it will not be in the sent folder is, it failed to send.
If it failed to send, then you will see the Outbox icon. 'Pending' would be a more descriptive name.
When it eventually sends, the Outbox will not show in the Mail app interface.
Until it is sent it will stay stuck in the Outbox.
If it refuses to send, you can manually delete it in Finder, at the location ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Outbox.mbox
Close Mail first, before you search for that email using the Finder.

When I upgraded to IOS5, my playlists no longer appear on the iPOD. When I do a Sync, the playlists appear, but will not sync to the iPOD. Any suggestions on how to resolve??

When I upgraded to IOS5, my playlists no longer appear on the iPOD. When I do a Sync, the playlists appear, but will not sync to the iPOD. Any suggestions on how to resolve??

I would understand it if you checked email on your Mac, and then those messages were not available on your iOS devices if you had the advanced account setting "remove copy from server after retrieving message:" set to immediately.
I looked through my iPhone settings and don't even see an option to tell my phone to pull the only copy of a message and delete it from the server.
Possibly there is another setting in Lion (I am running Snow Leopard still) that tells your Mac to only synchronize mail to your iOs devices and is not pulling mail directly from iCloud.
You could try disabling your current iCloud email account in Mac Mail, and adding a new one and just telling Mail it is a standard IMAP account (imap.mail.me.com incoming and smtp.mail.me.com outgoing).
I did that for Leopard to get my email even to work after MobileMe is cancelled and it seems to work fine with my iPhone.
If that doesn't work, you can delete that new email account and re-enable the temporarily disabled iCloud email account from above.
Hope this helps.

I suspect it has something to do with the java but not sure
Just so you'll know, there is no Java on that page. There is, however JavaScript. You should know that those two things are different as night and day.
To fix your problem, change this -
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
</script>
</head>
to this -
function MM_swapImgRestore() { //v3.0
var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;

Need to send mail from Microsoft Exchange 2007 account(different from Gmail) on behalf of another Gmail ID. How to configure that ?

I have a Gmail ID (e.g [email protected])
I have a Exchange ID (e.g [email protected])
I need to configure exchange account (2007) such that I can send a mail from my Exchange account but at the receiver end it looks like it was sent from ([email protected]).
Both the accounts are my accounts.
I need this because I do not have access to my Gmail account from place where I access the internet and I need to send the mails from my Gmail account only.

So you want to spoof your e-mail address.
You can make your Exchange server send as any address you want. Just create a different mailbox with that address as the primary (reply) address. It has to be a different account.
However, be aware that many systems to which you send such mail to will bounce it as suspected spam because they'll detect that your server is sending mail from Gmail but your server is not Gmail.

Mail and Exchange 2007 won't allow customizable "From" Header

I use Mac Mail with an Exchange 2007 server. In Preferences > Accounts, under "Account Information," I have two different e-mail addresses (e.g., the address for that exchange server and a gmail address) listed in the "Email address" field. When I create a new message, there is a pull-down menu next to "From:" that is supposed to allow me to choose which of those two e-mail addresses should appear in that field.
However, regardless of which e-mail address I choose, the e-mail message always has the "From:" address for the exchange server. In other words, it won't allow me to customize the "From:" field. This worked properly in the past and I've been using it for awhile, but it quit working when I re-installed Mail. Everything else works perfectly.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any recommendations?
Thanks!

Thanks for your message.
Actually, changing "Reply-To" isn't what I need. I need the proper e-mail address to show in the "from" field; for example, because I need to send messages to a server and those messages need to come from a specific e-mail address.
And, the pull-down message is definitely next to the "From" field whenever a new message is generated.
I actually don't receive messages in Mail for the other two accounts (e.g., I use Gmail's web interface for Gmail messages). I'm simply needing to modify the "From:" field in OUTGOING messages, something that used to work but quit working recently.

Mail (Lion) & Exchange 2007, periodically stops receiving messages, does no hang

As the title says, we are having this issue. I saw another post last year about Exchange 2010 hanging, and an old certificate caused the issue. Our network admin is looking into that.
We are not experiencing any hangs. Mail "works" fine. We have multiple accounts setup (all Exchange) and 2 of the 3 are sending and receiving fine. The last mailbox, the actual use account, will stop receiving. There are no errors or indicators. Typically someone will call and ask why she isn't responding. She closes Mail and reopens and the emails come in. Sometimes it's once a day, sometimes more. I've removed the Exchange account and added it back in and it helped, but didn't resolve the issue.
Any thoughts?

After having the same error ("opening mailbox - Requesting latest information" - hang) and fighting for months on my Mac (Lion) to solve it, including writing angry bug reports to Apple - I think I finally found the source of the problem:
There was an old (invalid) certificate installed in Exchange (2007, in my case), enabled for SMTP.
Nobody seems to care about this - including Snow Leopard Mail, Outlook and all iOS devices - but Lion Mail cared, and just stuck. Typically after some time - maybe sleep/wake or just a couple of hours - Mail was stuck and did not receive any new mails anymore, until I Force Quit it.
I got the hint from another forum (somebody suggested changing the properties in the locally installed certificates in Lion - but this was not the solution) and after seeing the question popping up once in Mail Preferences (do you want to trust this (old) certificate).
After removing the old certificate from Exchange (good luck with this admin user interface - no wonder we did not notice it) - everything works ok for me, already a day without any hangs.
Hope it helps! (Let us know the outcome...)

Mail displaying Exchange 2007 tasks

I have tasks in my Exchange 2007 Tasks folder. iCal sees them and displays them in its "Tasks" calendar, but Mail does not seem to display any in its "To Do" folder. Is this intentional?
I also cannot create a new To Do in the Exchange account. My "To Do" button is disabled, and the tooltip displays this message: http://gallery.me.com/link.dupont/100100/MailToDoToolTip
