Public folders in Multi-tenant exchange
Hi There,
We have a 2013 hosted exchange server hosting multiple tenants, we have these separated out using address
book policies so they can't see other tenants on the same server
We now want to add another tenant who want to start using public folders once they come on board, we would like to know what the best approach to do this is without having any impact on any other tenants & ideally without other tenants having the ability
to view what public folders are there.
While testing i created a PF mailbox and a couple of test public folders, to keep it private to the one tenant I created in the new tenants OU and added the customattribute to the mailbox that relates to the tenants address book policy.
However after creating this several current tenants were constantly prompted to type in credentials to connect to the public folders so I have had to delete the PF mailbox for now to stop this happening.
I would be grateful for any advice as to the best practice for setting this up while keeping the public folders completely private to the one tenant or atleast stop the credential issue from popping up, thanks
Hi,
By default, the Public Folder mailbox used by a user is automatically selected by an algorithm that load-balances users across all PF mailboxes. Of course, you can use the DefaultPublicFolderMailbox parameter to specify a PF mailbox to a user.
To work around this issue, you can create a shared mailbox and assign permissions to this new tenant.
Best regards,
Belinda

Removing Public Folders after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013
Recently we migrated from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. We did not migrate Public Folders and are retiring them from Exchange altogether. I shut Exchange 2007 off for a couple of weeks to ensure 2013 functions properly and it does so we're
ready to decommission Exchange 2007. I was able to remove all the mailbox databases without a glitch. Using the EMC I click to remove the Public Folder database from Exchange 2007 and get the following message:
Error: The public folder database "server\storage group - Public Folders\ Public Folder Database" contains folder replicas. Before deleting the public folder database, remove the folders or move the replicas to another public folder database.
Any help appreciated.Hi Terry,
If you run the following command does it come back with any public folders?
Get-PublicFolderStatistics -Server "SERVERNAME" | fl
If nothing comes back you can follow this guide to manually remove the public folder database (at your own risk) http://haythamalex.wordpress.com/2011/11/24/how-to-force-exchange-server-public-folder-removal/
Cheers,
Jack
I get alot of output from that command.

Unable to send to external email recipients - Multi Tenant Exchange 2013 - MultiRole servers in DAG
Greetings all, I hope someone can help.
I have created a Exchange 2013 multi-tenant organization, with two servers, both multi-role - CAS and Mailbox roles.
Internal mail flow is fine (external email addresses can send to the domain).
External firewall port forwards ports 443 and 25 to the Internal DAG IP address.
There are two multi-role Exchange servers that are members of the DAG.
I am able to connect to OWA and ECP via https://externalIP/OWA and https://alias.domain.com/OWA
No SSL certificates have been purchased or installed yet.
Exchange URLs have not been changed since default configuration at install.
OWA and ECP works both internal and external.
External DNS works with SPF and PTR records correctly configured
Exchange RCA - Send test only fails with one Spam Listing (this Blacklist provider now flags all domains and you cannot ask to be removed)
Send Connectors are the default ones created during install. Receive connector is standard configuration with - * -
When sending email to an external address, I receive a failure notice
ServerName.test.corp.int gave this error:
Unable to relay
Your message wasn't delivered due to a permission or security issue. It may have been rejected by a moderator, the address may only accept email from certain senders, or another restriction may be preventing delivery.
More Info -
ServerName.test.corp.int
Remote Server returned '550 5.7.1 Unable to relay'
I have been troubleshooting this for many hours with no progress.
I have created new Send Connectors for the server that is advising that it is unable to relay, but they have all failed.
I have tried setting the Internal IP address for Exhange Server 1 (Exchange Server 2 reports failure), with most combinations of Security (Anonymous, Exchange Users, etc).
I have also tried with the IP range 192.168.11.0/24 to allow the whole the subnet, I still receive the unable to relay failure notice.
I have tried this guide - hxxps://glazenbakje.wordpress.com/2012/12/30/exchange-2013-how-to-configure-an-internal-relay-connector/ - with different combinations, still no resolution.
I am at a loss as to why I can't send out with the default configuration. I would assume that email would flow out without any changes, but this does not happen.
Can someone please assist before I lose my sanity.
Thanks in advance,

Even more info - Further troubleshooting -
I found my one of my Exchange servers had an extra NIC. I have since added a second NIC to the other server, so now both Exchange servers have dual NICs. I removed the DAG cleanly and recreated the DAG from scratch, using this link -
hxxp://careexchange.in/how-to-create-a-database-availability-group-in-exchange-2013/
The issue still exists, even with a newly created DAG. I also found that the Tenant Address Books were not 'applied'. I applied them but still no resolution
I think the issue is related to multi-tenant configuration even though the error says that it can't relay. The unable to relay message can appear when sending from a domain that the Organization does not support. Like trying to email as [email protected]
when you domain name is apple.com - But through extensive research I still can't resolve the issue.
Can someone please assist before I lose my sanity.
Thanks in advance,

Finalising the migration of Exchange 2003 public folders over to an Exchange 2010 environment
After migrating all the user mailboxes, I set up replicas of the Public Folders which I have been running for several weeks.
Once everything had been replicated, using System Manager on the Exchange 2003 server, I removed the source replica server from the list (aka the Exchange 2003 server).
Is this step sufficient to move the replicas over?
Under the First Storage Group -->Public Folder Store do I need to run the
Move All Replicas command? Will this generate a lot of traffic given that I have ran replication for a number of weeks?
I saw somewhere some Exchange 2010 a similar Powershell command .\MoveAllReplicas.psl as well.
I have updated the offline address book, carried out the Address List Conversion and Recipient Polices.
If everything is in order, I am going to run the uninstall on the 2003 server.After verifying that all the public folders are been replicated, I carried out the following:-
On the Exchange 2003 server under System Mangager > First Storage Group, I issued the command Move All Replicas over the weekend.
When I came back in today I could see the contents of the Public Folders
are now empty.
However, the Public Folder Instances still appears to have content. Is this normal?
On the Exchange 2010 server I have since issued the MoveAllReplicas.ps1 script to see if this will make any difference.
In addition when browsing the Default Public Folders via EMC, if I attempt to Update Content on any of the Public Folders I get the following error:
Cannot start replication against public folder....
MapiExceptionNoReplicaAvailable: StartContentReplication failed. -
Having issues seeing public folders in Exchange 2013.
We have an multi-tenant Exchange 2013 environment and are currently trying to set up up Public Folders for use with one of our tenants.
I have created the primary public folder mailbox and then created a public folder for the Tenant and assigned the necessary permissions to user account I would like to access the folder from (in this case "owner" permissions). However I cannot
see the public folder from Outlook. This is the case with both Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2013. I have made sure I am in the folder view (Cntrl + 6) but I see no public folders to speak of. I am able to log into OWA and add the public folder
to the favourite list by right clicking and selecting "add public folder", I am also able to access the public folders using a third party mobile app for iPhone called "Public Folders". I've also tried creating completely new profiles
in both versions of Outlook but I cannot see the public folders that way either.
We are currently using a third party wildcard certificate with our multi-tenant environment, not sure if that would have an impact on what we are doing here but thought I'd throw that in just in case.Hi,
Do you mean the public folder still cannot be seen even you logged the Outlook 2007 good user on an Outlook 2013 machine?
Thanks,

Public folders in hosted Exchange 2013
Hi,
Is it possible to setup public folders for a tenant i Exchange 2013, eg. with custom id 0 set or something like that?
Thanks!Hi,
If you want to deploy public folders in an Exchange 2013 multi-tenant environment, you can create a public folder mailbox per tenant.
Here is a related thread for your reference.

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 AdministratorHi,
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:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx

Does someone has a tip for further troubleshooting this issue?Hi,
There are a lot of corrupted items. You can try raising the baditemlimit to 999 to workaround this issue
Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Set-PublicFolderMigrationRequest -baditemlimit 100
To resumed the PublicFolderMigrationRequest
Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Resume-PublicFolderMigrationRequest

Migrate Exchange 2010 public folders cross forests
Hi,
Due to some Exchange and Active Directory issues (with remnants of old Ex 2003 server), we are going to migrate Exchange 2010 Mailboxes and public folders to a new Exchange 2010 Sp3 server, which is created in a new AD forest.
One thing we still have to decide, which is how to migrate public folders.
Apparently there are 2 ways:
1. To export PF data to PST and then import using Outlook in destination Exchange server
2. To use interorg replication tool to replicate PFs cross forest in target Exchange Server.
I would really appreciate if someone suggests which one is best. We have around 100GB of PF data.
Also, should we migrate Public Folders first? We think that we should move Mailboxes first.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards, David JohnsonHi,
Yes, when we decide to migrate from one Exchange server to another server, we need to move mailbox first.
About migrating public folders, both of these two solutions are available, I think that the first one is simpler.
Here is a similar thread for your reference.

Hope this helps.
Best regards,

Enable legacy public folders for Exchange 2013 prior to migration?
We're about ready to migrate to Exchange 2013 from 2010. We have a public folder database on 2010 that users can't see once migrated to 2013. If I run through the commands according to the technet article "Configure legacy public folders where user
mailboxes are on Exchange 2013 servers" (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn690134(v=exchg.150).aspx), will users who's mailboxes are still on Exchange 2010 be able to see these public folders?I know they've made alot of changes recently in how legacy public folders are handled in Exchange 2013 (mostly CU7), but I haven't had to do anything more than just setting the proper public folder database on the Exchange 2013 databases.
That being said, looking over the article you are not doing any moves, and it looks eerily similar to this blog post:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2014/11/07/on-premises-legacy-public-folder-coexistence-for-exchange-2013-cumulative-update-7-and-beyond.aspx
So I don't think this would hurt Public Folder access for your users in your legacy environment.
Did you deploy CU7? If so, then do what both articles say. If not try using Set-MailboxDatabase -Identity <2013 db name> -PublicFolderDatabase <PF DB NAME>

Move Public Folders Database to another Drive on same server - Exchange 2010
Hello all and thanks for your time and expertise.
We recently added a new drive to our Exchange 2010 server. I've moved all mailboxes including arbitration mailboxes to this new drive (and new mailbox database). I guess the last remaining step is to move the public folders databse to this new
drive. I know in the console I can move the database path and the log files path for the public folders database. Is this all I have to do to move my public folders successfully.
And then once everything is moved - can I safely remove the old mailbox database?
Your help and recommendations are greatly appreciated.Mike,
I moved the public folders database and received the following message:
"Summary: 1 item(s). 1 succeeded, 0 failed.
Elapsed time: 00:00:16
Public Folders
Completed
Warning:
The task completed successfully, but the database "Public Folders" cannot be restored.
The exception message is "An Active Manager operation failed. Error: The database action failed. Error: Unable to mount database 'Public Folders'.
The database appears to have been mounted at least once since its creation,
but there is no database file at 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Mailbox\Public Folders\Public Folders.edb'. Either recover the database file from a backup,
or mount the database with a new, empty database by using the Mount-Database cmdlet with the -Force parameter.. [Database: Public Folders, Server: *******.***]".
Exchange Management Shell command completed:
move-DatabasePath -Identity 'Public Folders' -EdbFilePath 'g:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Mailbox\Public Folders\Public Folders.edb' -LogFolderPath 'g:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Mailbox\Public Folders'
Elapsed Time: 00:00:16"
I blanked out the server name.
After I clicked off this message I remounted the public folders database and everything relative to the public folders seems to be working fine. Did this message occur because exchange was trying to mount the public folders database from its old location
and so I can safely move on with my life. Just wanted to double check with you.
And once everything has been moved from the old mailbox database such as user mailboxes, arbitration mailboxes - can I safely remove the old mailbox database. Thanks for your help. -
Snow Leopard Mail 4.4, Exchange Server, and Public Folders
I'm still confused about Apple's claim for the advantages of the Snow Leopard Mail program being of such significance to Corporate usage when it does not appear to support access to Public Folders when using an Exchange 2007 (or 2010) profile. Within a Corporate environment, Public Folders are one of the benefits for using Exchange.
Am I missing something?JL,
What you are missing is the exchange! You can check your e-mail in an Exchange account, but you just can't "exchange" anything with others. I can't for the life of me figure out why such a fundamental feature was left out. While Apple is certainly capable of ignoring a feature like this, Microsoft itself has said that the days of public folders are numbered. I think that since Exchange has become more of a standard rather than proprietary, Microsoft prefers to cripple it in favor of something (Sharepoint) that will be proprietary. Why have something simple, that works, when you can complicate it with something new!
The best I can tell, there is no support for public folders in mail.app for Snow Leopard. However, I can't really find a post that firmly states that. There seems to have been support for public folders in the past (pre-Snow) through IMAP. I'm not really sure how that worked, but I've already upgraded, so it's too late for me.
I'd be happy to hear a firm explanation of this from someone from Apple (or otherwise connected).
Good Luck, Jack -
Problems syncing Iphone with Public folders in exchange on our server?
We have downloaded and installed the latest version of Itunes. We have our calendars as public folders on our office exchange server. When we go to set up the sync, under calendars the first time we open it up, it shows a list of our public calendar folders but they are all greyed out and only gives us the option of "calendar". Once we sync as a test to see what happens, the list of our public folder calendars no longer appears. What do we need to do, to sync our Iphone, using Itunes, with the public calendar folder on our server. I know it sees them because of the initial list. But I can not get the phone to sync to a public calendar. Any helpful suggestions?
Tried that, I get the following when I go to the Public Folder Management Console:
Cannot complete the operation because there isn't an available public folder database on server
And even if I did that how does that help me retrieve my missing information? -
How to migrate public folders to new shared mailbox & Mailboximprotrequesthelp.
hi i have several public folders stored within the exchange mailbox database, i am wanting to migrate over to shared mailbox's as i find them easier to look after.
i already have mail flowing to the new shared mailbox's so nothing goes to the public folders as i disabled mail-enabled
what i now want to do is take all of the old emails and import them into the shared mailbox's.
i can do it via PST export in outlook and mailboximportrequest, this works but it creates an odd folder structure, if i use the following command it creates the folder IPM_SUBTREE folder in testmove inbox then in the IPM_SUBTREE folder is the inbox that
contains the emails so it goes Testmove > inbox > IPM_SUBTREE > inbox > emails
New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox testmove -FilePath "\\exchangeserver\publicfolders\testmove.pst" -TargetRootFolder "inbox" -Verbose
is there a way of either cleaning up the folder structure or another way around doing the import / export as this seems a bit of a messy way of doing it, considering when i do the real public folders they have emails going back to 2010 so thousands and thousands
of them.

Import Public Folders from pst file
I am trying to import our Exchange 2007 public folders into our managed Exchange 365 account at Microsoft. I created the Primary Hierarchy public folder name, PublicFolders, but don't understand how to use pst import to get the public folders
under this main folder. All I have accomplished thus far is to use Outlook to import the public folders into the administrator Outlook account on the managed Microsoft O365 server. They import into a folder called IPM_SUBTREE in the administrator
mailbox on the server. Do I somehow have to move the public folders from there to the actual public folder location? I really need and appreciate any help.Hi,
For this issue, I recommend you post to Office 365 forum which is staffed by more experts, you might get a better help there. Thanks for understanding.
