Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2003

Good day,
Hoping someone can give a link to an official stance from Microsoft. I know that some TechNet pages I have looked at state Outlook 2013 cannot connect to a server running Exchange 2003 (found here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178996(v=office.15).aspx) but is there any official support from Microsoft at all for workarounds? I don't mean just using IMAP
but will Microsoft offer support in any way to allow Exchange 2003 to be compatible with Outlook 2013?
I am sure the answer is no but I just wanted to still pose the question to see if there is any documentation stating this.
Thank you

No workarounds available. Exchange 2007 is the minimum supported version with Outlook 2003.

Help needed with buggy Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2010 trashing profiles

Hi All,
I have a customer who has eschewed MOLP and buys all their Office OEM from Dell. So as a result they are starting to have more and more office 2013 be deployed. They have a SBS 2011 server with Exchange 2010 and it is patched to the latest
rollups and service packs. (SP3, RU2) Their Outlook 2010 and earlier clients are just peachy on this. But the Outlook 2013 clients are having problems.
What is going on is that periodically I'll get a complaint from a user that their Outlook 2013 is randomly crashing. In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default
and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC. This seems to happen a few times a month with random users on the network.
I told the customer it was probably people not logging out of Outlook 2013 at night and their machines being power spiked but I think that's highly unlikely since it doesen't happen to the Outlook 2010 clients.
I don't know if any Microsoft developers read this but if you do, please take it back to your bug database. Any other suggestions would be appreciated (other than scotch Outlook 2013 - while I'd appreciate that, my customer wouldn't)

In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC.
The Outlook 2013 crash problem would be fix after you re-create a new profile and re-sync the data from Exchange, right?
When we meet the same problem in next time, I suggest we run the Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic tool to isolate known causes of crashes in Outlook. The Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic also creates a diagnostic report outlining the data it collected
and recommendations on possible steps you can take to reduce or eliminate Outlook stability issues.

Imceainvalid on sent emails - Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2013 on premise

Hi All
I have a customer that has had a ongoing issue for some time now and I have had no luck in resolving it. I can see the exact same issues highlighted by other people but generally this relates to older office version and/or older exchange.
Issue: Error after sending email:
IMCEAINVALID -
Remote Server returned '550
5.1.0 RESOLVER.ADR.InvalidInSmtp; encapsulated INVALID address inside an SMTP
address (IMCEAINVALID-)'
[email protected]
Cause:
If you check the properties of the To/CC addresses (only the display name is filled out as the email address, the email address field itself and "type" are not filled (does not always occur and not for ALL
recipients of email)
Checks:
There are no local contacts for these email addresses in outlook. The auto complete cache has also been cleared. Running exchange in cached mode is not an available option due to the setup.
Email details:
These emails are generated by third party software however not the same software. This is occurring on emails generated into the outlook client by software Rosetta as well as by Mimecast plugin to download archivedemails(then reply to all). This is also
an intermittent issue and does not occur every time with all the emails.
Search:
All searches I have done seem to mainly point to the auto complete option in outlook but this is not the cause of this in my scenario. There was also a known issue in Office 2007 I believe with a office update to resolve, but this is Outlook 2013.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,
If you just create an email directly from Outlook, has this issue occurred ever?
You can also start Outlook in Safe Mode and then use the 3rd-party software to send some test emails, check if the problem persists.
To start Outlook in Safe Mode:
Press Win + R, type "outlook.exe /safe" in the blank box, press Enter.
In Outlook Safe Mode, all add-ins will be disabled. If there's no problem in Outlook Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which one caused the problem.
Since the issue is intermittent, you may need to test for a period.

Unable to expand public folder in Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2013 CU6

Hello,
we have just migrated Exchange 2010 to 2013. Everything works great, except public folders, which we are not able to expand in Outlook 2013. Public folders can be added to OWA without any problem, so just the Outlook 2013 is a problem (we never tried any
other version, as all the e-mail clients installed here are Outlook 2013).
The public folders are visible under node Favorities in Outlook 2013, but whenever we click any folder, the Public folders disappear completely from the left navigation pane or the message is shown on the right pane, that the public folder cannot be opened.
When Outlook is started, a dialog is sometimes opened, which contains prefilled Microsoft exchange server, mailbox, button Check name, which is disabled. The only thing which can be done with that dialog is clicking the button Ok.
Any help is appreciated, the desperation level starts to be reaching max threshold.
Kind regards,
John.

Thank you for your quick response. I have tried removing and creating new Outlook profile many times, without any effect.
1) When I switch to the online mode, only the node All Public Folders is displayed in the left navigation pane and after I start the Outlook the dialog mentioned above is displayed. The node Favourities is not visible.
2) In offline node, node App Public folders is visible and whenever I click it, message "Cannot expand the folder" is shown. After checking Download favourities, the list of public folders is available, but whenever I click any folder, it shows
"We didn't find anything to show here." and "The folder is up to date." in the bottom status bar. The content is rendered correctly in OWA and these public folders contain many e-mails and subfolders. None of these is rendered in Outlook.
Thanks in advance for any tips and inspiration, we start to run out of ideas. I am more than sure that it will be something simple, but we can't still figure it out.

Outlook 2013 and exchange. Cant see new mail in subfolders.

Hello,
In our company we have exchange 2010 with sp3 and all clients with windows 8.1 and Outlook 2013. Problem is that clients have problem with new messages in their mailboxes. they cant see new messages in subfolders. In Outlook 2010 everything worked fine,
and after migration to 2013 this problem started.
For example:
There is user mailbox. He have a lot of subfolders. All subfolders is for varies companies. So he created rules, then someone writes from campany, mail goes to its subfolder. Problem is that then user opens Outlook in the morning, he can't see that
new mails are arrived to those subfolders. User must open that subfolder and only then, inside that subfolder he can see unread message. But how user can know, that inside is unread mail? :) Sometimes everything works fine, and sometimes user can't see new
mails. Then he opens OWA, all new mails is marked as unread and there is number near subfolder with unread mail count.
And this problem repeats to all users. I updated exchange to SP3 update 6. Operating system and Outlook is up to date. Recreation of profile helps for a week or two (Or user do not notice problem), and after that user calls me again with the same problem.
And this happens not for one user but for all. Sometimes restarting Outlook helps, after restart number with unread mail count appears near subfolder. There is no addins or other changes in Outlook. Search folder is not a solution, because there is a lot of
subfolders, so it would be a mess.
Can you advice me? Where can be problem? Is it global for all users who are using exchange 2010 and Outlook 2013?
Mantas

I tryed using search folder but this solution didnt helped. Then user opens Outlook he sees unread mail count near subfolder, and sum of unread mails in search
folder. But somefing happens and new mails does not appear neither in search folder neither near subfolders. But then client opens subfolder there are unread mails. In OWA everytime everything is OK. So user must check in OWA is there new mails and in which
subfolder, then he opens that subfolder in Outlook, and uhnread mail is here.
And another thing. Now one of clients have this problem. There is no count of new mails in subfolders, outlook does not show it, but OWA shows. In rules, client created few rules, near rules in action section,
there is icon, it looks like screwdriver and wrench, i went to propeties of those rules and removed "Stop processing more rules", and this icon disappeared. All rules updated to server, and after that, new messages counts appeared near few subfolders.
Is it possible that somehow this message count is combined with rules? Ant what does whis screwdriver and wrench icon means?

Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2007 not always syncing read status of a message

Out users are experiencing this issue from time to time. Outlook 2013 is using Exchange mailbox as default storage (Exchange 2007 SP3). Sometimes it shows that Inbox has one or few unread messages (Inbox name is bolded and there is a number near it). But
a user can't find any unread messages in the inbox. If he logs to his mailbox via OWA, then he can find those unread messages. But they are marked as read in the Outlook. So it seems Outlook 2013 has issues syncing with Exchange 2007 as we have never experienced
such issues when using Outlook 2007 with the same server.
Any hints on how to make this thing go away, other than instructing users to log via OWA and mark unread messages as read?

Hi,
Switch to Exchange Online Mode, does the issue persist?
It seems to be a sync issue between Outlook and Exchange, make sure the Internet connection is good. Let me know if the issue persist after clicking
Send/Receive All Folders button.
Try to run Scanpst.exe to repair the local data file in case the data file has been corrupted:

Vista Biz \ DTM 4.7 \ Bold \ Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2003 Nightmare! Help Please

Hi
I am trying to sync my Exchange Pub Folder (Calendar and Contacts) to my BB 9000 and it fails when I select 'MAP' in the DTM sync process.
Vista Biz
DTM 4.7
Outlook 2007
Exchange 2003
Bold
I am local\admin perms and Owner perms on the Exchange \pub folders but it crashes as soon as I select the MAP button.
On my WinXP Pro, using Outlook 2003 and the same exchange it works out of the box, but with Vista and Outlook 07 it crashes. Has anyone experienced this?
Thanks
Karl

It would appear that at least in certain situations Exchange 2003 can't "understand" what Outlook 2007 pushes into the mail store, which is an issue when anything tries to connect via POP or IMAP as the server tries to "render" an Internet standard message, and fails.
Some info here, particularly the bit by Buddha377
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvradmin/thread/c63b871 3-9ef9-4076-a11b-5db08255689b
Sounds like your iPhone sync may be suffering the same way??
P.S. Simply reading a message with OWA can "repair" email messages, I've witness this myself seeing Mail.app show "garbage" for a certain message pulled via IMAP, OWA showing the message fine, then all of a sudden Mail.app showing a perfectly formed message.

Problem appearing olders emails outlook 2013 with Exchange 2007 SP2

hi everyone,
recently i have problem with user mailbox OST more than 20 Gb (configured with outlook 2013 and exchange 2007 SP2 ) and if i scroll down in the olders mails in the Inbox Folder it's stoped in 2011 but i have more than this year ! i tried to add regedit keys
such as Maxlargesize... and no changes and tried also with exporting this ost to PST File (i proceed with computer 32 bits ....) and always stop in 2011
Please if you have ideas to resolve this
best regards
vote if you think useful

Hi,
OST file is a local copy of your email messages, calendar, and other items that are on the Exchange server, it is always synchronized with the items on the server. So, the first thing we need to check is to login to OWA and check if you can see older
emails from there.
If you can't see the old email from OWA, it means the emails are removed from the server. In this case, you'll need to contact your Exchange admin to see if your old emails are archived. We can also check if you have enabled AutoArchive feature in your Outlook,
which may move your emails from your OST file to a local PST file. See:
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/830119?wa=wsignin1.0
If you can see the old emails from OWA, your OST file may be corrupt. We can exit Outlook, find the .OST file and rename it to .old, and then restart Outlook to let it sync a new one. By default, the OST file are save in:
drive:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook
Please let me know the result.

Migrating to Exchange 2013 from Exchange 2003, EV7, Office 2003 and XP

What is the best approach for migrating our 300 user Exchange 2003 organisation to Exchange 2013.? We use Enterprise vault v7.5 and the clients are Office 2003 on an XP desktop.
We are also planning to upgrade to Windows7 and Office 2013 this year so I am trying to understand the sequence. Should we just aim to upgrade to Exchange 2010 with Outlook 2010 instead?
Many thanks.

Hi,
You can't install Exchange 2013 until and unless you decommission your Exchange 2003. Coexistence of Exchange 2013 with Exchange 2003 is not supported. You first need to upgrade to Exchange 2010 SP3 and then move users to Exchange 2010 and decommission your
Exchange 2003 servers. Once you are done with the decommissioning of your Exchange 2003 server you will be able to install your first Exchange 2013 machine in your messaging infrastructure.
Kindly mark this as answer if it fulfill your requirements. Thanks.

Outlook 2013 with Exchange Server - Changed custom form for contacts is not shown

Hello,
Our infrastructure:
Exchange Server 2010
Outlook 2010
Outlook 2013
Windows 7 Pro, Windows 8 Pro and Windows 8.1 Pro
The situation:
We've used an old custom form for contacts, worked perfectly fine
I've updated the form (adding some new custom fields and checkboxes) using Outlook 2013 and publishing the form (with a new name) to the Exchange folder
I've set the form as default form in our contacts folder
I've used this Script to set the new form for the existing contacts and the name of the new form is saved correctly
BUT if I open a contact in our Exchange contacts folder, Outlook 2013 (Outlook 2010) still shows the old form
Steps I've taken so far:
Cleared Outlook forms cache
Repeated the above steps 1-4 in Outlook 2010
Switched Cached Exchange Mode off and back on
Allowed Scripts in Trust Center Settings
Used a new clean Windows installation with a new Outlook 2013 installation
Used different Exchange users on different systems, but some behavior when opening contacts
I'm out of options I can think of, so maybe somebody else has some new view on this problem.
Thank you very much in advance!
Greetings,
Karl

Hi,
Is the Exchange folder in which the custom form is published available to all users?
From the description, the script used to work for the old custom form, correct? Which version of Outlook did you use with the old custom contact form? Outlook 2010/Outlook 2013 or an earlier version? If you used the script with an earlier version of Outlook,
we can't make sure it will still work with Outlook 2010/Outlook 2013.
In addition we may also try creating a new contact form and test the steps to see if it will work.
Please let me know the result.

Steve Fan

This is commonly seen with an Outlook add-in, such as the AVG add-in. I just ran into it again today. I removed AVG and enabled Windows Defender on a Win8 laptop with Outlook 2013, and that took care of the issue. If you must use AVG, you can disable the
add-in and then test new emails.
To disable the AVG add-in, this is one method:
Important Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry.
(https://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/ )
in case problems occur.
To resolve this problem, follow these steps to disable the Avgoutlook.Addin add-in. If the problem is , we recommend that you contact the vendor of the add-in to ask about an updated version of the add-in.
Exit Microsoft Outlook if it is running.
Start Registry Editor.
In Windows 8
Press the Windows logo key+R, type regedit in the Open box, and then press Enter.
In Windows 7, 8 or Windows Vista
Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press Enter.
Locate and then select the following registry subkey, depending on the type of Office and Windows installations that you have.
32-bit Office plus 32-bit Windows
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\avgoutlook.Addin
64-bit Office plus 64-bit Windows

32-bit Office plus 64-bit Windows
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\avgoutlook.Addin
Right-click the LoadBehavior value, and then click Modify.
Change the Value Data value to 0, and then click
OK.
Start Microsoft Outlook.
Note To re-enable this add-in in Outlook, change the LoadBehavior value to

Business Package for Communication with NW04 and Exchange 2003?

Hi, we are evaluating opportunities to realize a groupware integration in the SAP Portal EP60SP2. A upgrade to Netweaver is planned, so the possible solution should work with Netweaver too. Our Exchange version is 2003.
I'm thinking about the standard SAP Groupware-Integration in combination with the Business Package for Communication.
Has anyone expirences with the Business Package for communication, Netweaver and Exchange 2003, yet?
I know, it's not officially supported, but maybe it works.
With the OWA-iViews we've got problems to implement our Styleguide and to devide into different iViews. The informations shown in the iViews of the Business Package are adequate and we would save ActiveX.
Is there another solution that works?
Are there other iViews from 3rd party developers, that show Outlook informations? Has anyone realized something like this in a project yet?
I would be grateful for any ideas.
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Please note that the Business Package for Communication was only available for SAP EP 5.0. Newer releases of SAP EP contain the groupware (GW) functionalities and some GW iViews automatically as soon as KM is installed with the EP. The integration with MS Exchange 2003 should work. If you look for iViews such as Send EMail, Create Appointment, Show availability and Room Calendar, you can use the iViews shipped by SAP. If however you need the EMail inbox or the personal calendar and tasks, then the native OWA iViews are the way to go. For further details please refer to the SAP NetWeaver admin guide http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0c/30d624a0fae949902f7a4b2a8f98bd/frameset.htm.
Hope that helps

Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2007 - out of office problem

We are using outlook 2013 with Exchange 2007. When users select their out of office it will work fine for the first day, however there after the Out of Office replies stop working. Out of Office is set correctly within Outlook, but what we have found
is that if the user opens Outlook the Out of Office starts to work again. Also when the user opens Outlook it takes around two minutes before it registers that Out of Office is on.
Any Ideas?

Hi,
How do you configure your OOF? From standard OOF wizard or define an automatic reply template from Rule wizard?
If you are using a template, Outlook must be running for the Rules Wizard to automatically reply. Please refer to the Note in the following KB:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311107
If it is configured by using standard Out of Office assistance in File > Automatic Replies, please remove OOF settings in Outlook and set it from OWA 2007, then check whether the issue can be reproduced.

Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2013 keeps giving read receipts

Hello experts,
We have an Exchange 2013 server. All users are joint to the domain, except one user (Windows 8.1) which is in a Workgroup, and using Outlook 2013 with IMAP protocol.
This particular user is having a problem. When he send's any email from Outlook and requests a read receipt, after that he keeps getting hundreds of read receipts in his inbox. I have tried disabling (for temporarily) the Windows server 2012 firewall, but
still having the same issue.
Is this a known bug in Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2013? Any help troubleshooting this?

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that IMPA account get hundreds of read receipts while he requests a read receipt.
If I misunderstand you concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
Whether are all account or some special user experience this question? Please do a test in external with IMAP account to double confirm.
How about the “Request a Delivery Receipt”?
Also, please run message tracking log to get more details about message mail flow:
Get-MessageTrackingLog –Server “mailbox server” –Sender “[email protected]” –Recipient “[email protected]” –MessageSubject “Read: message subject” | Select Timestamp, ClientHostname,ServerHostname,Source,EventID,Recipients,RecipientStatus,Sender | ConvertTo-Html > “C:\Test\Test.xml”
