Outlook 2013 Public Folders search

Hi all. I'm having issues with one of my users trying to search a specific folder on public folders in outlook 2013. I've added the folder to the user's favorites list so it can cache a local copy to speed up searches. When the user clicks on the folder contained in the favorites tab, the user can see the inbox with real-time inbound mails. However, when doing a search, the results are returned but it immediately begins to remove the results one by one, from most recent to oldest. I say remove because I don't know if they're being deleted or not.
I've been digging through all my settings and I still cannot figure out where this issue is happening. Any ideas what I can do?

Hi
To solve the issues in Outlook 2013, please follow these steps: -
In order to have the Instant Search feature for Public Folders behave the same as for your mailbox, the following conditions must be meet: -
Outlook must be configured to cache
Public Folder Favorites.
(and of course the caching and indexing must have been completed)
The
Public Folder must be marked as a Public Folder Favorite.
The search must be performed from within the
Favorites section of your Public Folders tree and not from its actual location within
All Public Folders.
Thanks and regards

  • Migrating from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 Public Folders coexistence

    Hi all, I'm migrating from Exchange 2007 SP3 to Exchange 2013 SP1.
    I have an Exchange 2007 server (Client Access, Hub Transport and Mailbox Server) in Site A, mailboxes and Publics Folders
    In another Site in Site B, I have already installed (Client Access and Mailbox Server) Exchange 2013 server.
    I am migrating test users, the fact is that users who migrated to Exchange Server 2013 Public folders do not see.
    How I can make the migrated users from viewing the Exchange 2007 Public Folders duration coexistence?
    Is there a "how to" to migrate Public Folders from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013?
    thank you very much
    Microsoft Certified IT Professional Server Administrator

    Hi,
    In Exchange 2013, the Public Folder is changed to Public Folder mailbox instead of Public Folder in Exchange 2007 database.
    Due to the changes in how public folders are stored, legacy Exchange mailboxes are unable to access the public folder hierarchy on Exchange 2013 servers. However, user mailboxes on Exchange 2013 servers or Exchange Online can connect to legacy
    public folders. Exchange 2013 public folders and legacy public folders can’t exist in your Exchange organization simultaneously. This effectively means that
    there’s no coexistence between versions.
    For this reason, it’s recommended that prior to migrating your public folders, you should
    first migrate your all legacy mailboxes to Exchange 2013. For more information about migrating public folder from previous versions, please refer to:

  • Exchange 2013 - Public folder search not working

    Hi There,
    We have Exchange 2013 install on server 2012 and clients using Outlook 2010 on Windows 7.
    Since we have installed the system a search of the public folders always returns no results even if we know the email is there. Any suggestions?
    Thank you
    Dave

    Hi Triumphtech,
    Yes, if our Exchange 2003 environment is healthy, it will work.
    Please forgive me for the silly clarification. If we used Exchange 2003 and wanted to migrate to Exchange 2013. We must migrate to Exchange 2007/2010 first, then to Exchange 2013.
    So please make sure we have moved the public folder successfully first.
    And great information from Tarique Noorain.
    According to  the article, I found some points for your reference:
    1. Although a full text search of public folder content is available, public folder content isn't searchable across public folders and the content isn't indexed by Exchange Search.
    2. You must use Outlook 2007 or later to access public folders on Exchange 2013 servers.
    Feel free to contact me if there is any problem.
    Thanks

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folders Contents missing

    Greetings! We have recently, the last 45 days, migrated from Exchange 2007 to 2013.  Last week, Wednesday evening, while moving Appassure backups from one repository to another our Public Folders went south after a required system reboot. 
    I can still see the folder structure and subfolders from both a command line and from Outlook, but I cannot see the actual contents of a contact list, a calendar, or a folder mail items.  Instead everyone gets a message telling them "There are no
    items to show in this view."  while a constant search is being preformed. 
    Using the command Get-PublicFolderStatistics I get the IPM_SUBTREE Item count as Zero.  Yet when I preform the command Get-Mailbox -PublicFolder | FL Name,ExchangeGuid I get the name : PFMBX01 with an ExchangeGuid of c5d6cc8f-f406-41aa-a1ad-2a5f6b757deb.
    We have backups on the old backup Appassure server, but I cannot locate anything resembling PFMBX01.  I need to find a way to locate those items either on the server or on the backups.  Last week was of course Microsoft Tuesday.  Is it possible
    that an update could have caused the contents of the mailboxes to disappear?
    Peskieskie

    Hi
    peskieskie,
    What do you mean that public folder mailbox is disconnected?
    Could you please run the Get-Mailbox –Identity | fl *public* cmdlet and check if the value of DefaultPublicFolderMailbox parameter is set?

  • Unable to Manage custom forms in Exchange 2013 Public Folders or Organizational Forms Library

    We've been doing custom forms development for many years and many versions of Exchange.  This Exchange 2013 presented me with this new problem.  We use Exchange 2013 with Cumulative Update 5, and Outlook 2007, 2010 and 2013.  This problem
    happens on all versions of the latest patched Outlooks.
    1) I have successfully created a Public Folder and an Organizational Forms Library
    2) I have granted myself "Owner" privilege to the entire public folder in both the IPM_Subtree and the Non_IPM_Subtree
    3) I can publish forms into a Public Folder and the Organizational Forms Library
    But, after the form is published, I can't manage it.  The COPY, UPDATE, DELETE, PROPERTIES, and SAVE AS buttons are greyed out.
    This does not happen for anything in my Personal Forms, my Mailbox or anything in Favorites that are locally cached.
    Since the Organizational Forms Library cannot be "Cached" by putting it in Favorites, there seems to be NO way to even delete a form that is published to there.
    The closest link that describes a similar (maybe same) problem is
    http://www.michev.info/Blog/Post/14/Unable-to-manage-Forms-in-Outlook
    A) Anybody else have the same problem?
    B) Since it seems I only have control over forms in my Mailbox, and since Public Folders are suppose to be an mailbox, does anyone know how to setup a Public Folder so that you can login to it and attach it as a mailbox?
    C) Does anyone know how to make the Organizational Forms Library cached locally so it can be managed?
    J Awe TechBldrs Inc. www.TechBldrs.com

    Easy steps to reproduce the problem.
    1) create a public folder subfolder (do not create a Favorite)
    2) make yourself and OWNER
    3) publish a form to the subfolder (Open a any form and save it with any name)
    4) use the Form Manager select the public folder subfolder that you are an OWNER of
    5) select a form and see if the buttons are GRAYED out.
    PLEASE TRY THIS ON YOUR OWN SYSTEMS TO VERIFY THE PROBLEM.

  • Exchange 2013 Public folders unavailable intermittedly using MAPI HTTP

    We have a problem with Public folders not being available both in Outlook 2013 and OWA.Any ideas in troubleshooting the issue will be appreciated.Thanks.

    Hi,
    Is there any error message when you try to access public folders in Outlook 2013?
    If there is, please post here for further analysis.
    In Exchange 2013 CU1, the ability to open public folders in OWA is added. You need to add public folders from Favorites.
    Please use the get-mailbox | fl defaultpublicfoldermailbox to check the default public folder mailbox in Exchange 2013.
    Please navigate to the following path to check the msExchHomePublicMDB attribute if the value is not set.
    Open ADSI Edit -> Configuration -> CN=Configuration, DC=domain, DC=com -> CN=Services -> CN=Microsoft Exchange -> CN=<Organization Name> -> CN=Administrative Groups -> CN=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) -> CN=Databases
    -> Select the mailbox database and right click on it, choose Properties.

    I can't access the public folders at all. Trying to access the public folders, result in the error from the following page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2788136,
    or "Cannot expand the folder..."
    It is affecting all users using this Exchange-server. I am actually having this error on two different Exchange-serverens at two different companies at the moment. 
    And it is a fresh Exchange 2013 environment in both cases. 
    PS: I discovered that the public folders works inside the same domain as the Exchange-server, however users can't access the public folders externally. 
    I also tried to use the Exchange-server as DNS, in order to be able to resolve i.client.local:
    <PublicFolderInformation>
    <SmtpAddress>[email protected]</SmtpAddress>
    </PublicFolderInformation>
    however I am still unable to open the public folders, even after being able to resolve the DNS name i.client.local. 

  • Outlook 2011 Public Folders button is greyed out

    One of my clients has an Exchange 2010 server with a number of public folders on it.  All of the users who are using Windows versions of Outlook (either Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013) are able to access the public folders without any issues.  However,
    the one user who uses a Apple Mac with Outlook 2011 is not able to access the public folders.  When she clicks on the Tool menu in Outlook, the Public Folder button is greyed out.  The Out of Office button is also greyed out.  Any help or ideas
    on how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Scott

    Hi Scott,
    Based on my experience, if the user account isn't an Exchange account, Public Folders will be disabled.
    If the account is an Exchange account, please re-build EWS Virtual Directory for testing.
    Thanks

  • Search within Outlook 2013 will not search subject unless i specify "subject:()"

    I am having an issue with Outlook 2013 where if I search for lets say "computer" and I have a message with the word "computer" in the subject line, it does not find it. If i search for "subject:(computer)" then it finds it.
    It's as if keyword searching isn't working but if I specify where I want it to search it works. I tried doing it on a computer that did not have any Office updates and it works as it should so I have a feeling that it must be an update that changed the functionality.
    Is anyone aware of this issue?

    Hi,
    Please try to delete and rebuild index to check the result. To do this, click in the Search box, under
    SEARCH tab, click Search Tools > Search Options > Indexing Options >
    Advanced button > Click Rebuild button. Restart Outlook to check the result.
    If problem persists, we can also try to run a repair of your Office installation to check the result, To do this, please refer:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/repair-office-programs-HA010357402.aspx
    Please let me know the result.

    I tried rebuilding the index and doing an office repair but neither helped. I tried it on another computer and had the same issue. Only place I get it to work is when no office updates have been installed. I am not sure when this stopped working so I cannot
    pinpoint which update might have caused it.

  • Exchange 2013 public folders are sending read receipts for items viewed in public folders

    We have Exchange 2013 with public folders.  These public folders are used for a large amount of shared contacts.  When a user goes into the public folders and double clicks on a contact to view it, Exchange dispatches a read receipt to all users
    that are configured as publishing editors to notify them that a certain contact was read.  How do I disable this option?

    hi again dear.. :)
    "At first, I would like to say the
    read Receipt is not sent out by the device, it is sent out by the Exchange server. This is how it works and what happens:
    1.     
    E-mail with request for send
    receipt is received on the Exchange server;
    2.     
    E-mail is synchronized with Windows Mobile based device using Exchange
    ActiveSync;
    3.     
    When e-mail is
    read on Windows Mobile based device the read status is synchronized back to the Exchange server;
    4.     
    The Exchange server creates and sends out the
    Read Receipt when receiving the Read status update from the device;
    The above is how this is implemented and there is no functionality which allows preventing this from occurring on the Mobile device.
    It seems that there is an alternative method to disable RR using transport rules. However, it will at the risk of the filtering out other messages
    with the same subject.
    Towards the third party mobile clients that support RR and DR, you might consider using Flexmail 4.11. It’s impossible to deactivate ActiveSync
    RRs in Exchange server 2007/2010."
    also
    One way to stop read receipts being triggered through client side configuration on the mobile is to use the option "Don't Mark Read on server".
    I have tested this successfully using this option in the TouchDown mail client on Android.
    Not sure if the standard or other mail clients do support this option, TouchDown certainly does and it works.
    The side effect obviously is, that the read status isn't synced back to Exchange anymore:"
    hope now i r clear... one way or the other... you need to send a feed back or define a transport rule... but that again may create problem with the same subject :)

  • Exchange 2013 public folders auditing

    I am interested in finding out when last time public folder was accessed and by who.
    If it is possible also when item (document for example) was last time accessed and by who.
    I have found article about ex 2007
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee221156(EXCHG.80).aspx
    All I have found regarding to Ex 2013 that mailbox auditing for PF do not work.
    “Does mailbox audit logging work against public folders?
    No. Not at this time.”
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj552408(v=exchg.150).aspx
    Do such auting exist in ex 2013 as in ex 2007?
    Thakns!

    Hi,
    In Exchange 2007, we can use the Get-PublicFolderStatistics | fl cmdlet to retrieve the LastAccessTime. But in Exchange 2013, we can't get the LastAccessTime when we run the Get-PublicFolderStatistics | fl command.
    And I'm afraid there is no way to monitor the time item is accessed in public folders.
    Here is a similar thread for your reference.

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folders - Adding another PF mailbox

    Hi,
    I'm sure this is obvious, but I've looked and can't find anything.
    We're in the process of completing a cross forest migration from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 on premise. We've migrated PF content (using a third party app) and we're currently at around 90% of the quota for the first PF mailbox (PFMAILBOX1). My question
    is, how do we start using the second mailbox (PFMAILBOX2 in this case)? Does it just roll over when it breaches the PF quota?
    PFMAILBOX1 has the primary hierarchy and PFMAILBOX2 has secondary - not sure if this makes any difference?
    As usual, any help appreciated.
    Regards
    Steve

    Hello,
    You can use New-PublicFolderMoveRequest to move Public Folders to new mailbox (single folder, folder tree etc). For further informations look at:

  • Exchange 2013 Public Folders Array Dimensions Have Exceeded Supported Range

    Hello,
    I have another odd issue for public folders on Exchange 2013. I am working with an environment with a bit over 3000 Public Folders and we are having some issues where some users are not able to access the public folder. When I try to change the permissions
    to those folders I get the error of:
    "Array Dimensions Have Exceeded Supported Range"
    The environment is a 2 Node DAG with all components installed on each server. The latest Roll Up has been in stalled on both servers as well.
    Thanks in Advance

  • Merging existing 2013 Public Folders and 2010 Public Folders from different organization.

    Following recent acquisition of another company we faced the following situation:
    Company A has Exchange 2013 Organization up and running and already using new Public Folders migrated from 2010 when we upgraded.
    Company B has Exchange 2010 Organization with their own PF infrastructure.
    When it comes to migration, there's already public folder mailbox which was created when first migration occured.
    I cant figure next steps to merge those PF infrastructures at the moment, as removing public folder mailbox prior migration is not an option, since we already have big amount of data in 2013 Organization.
    Have anyone done similiar task and if so, how did you overcome this limitation?

    You're looking at a third-party product.  MigrationWiz does public folders.  There are other cloud-based migration solutions, but I don't know whether they support public folder migrations.
