Public folders stuck in Mail queue when replicating to Exchange 2010

This last weekend I installed Exchange 2010. Moved everyone over the same night to the new server. Mail flows in and out in ex 2010. The problem is I can't get the Public folders to replicate across. At the same time I found I can't send mail between the
two exchange servers. In the message Queue on the Ex 2007 box I see the public folders are just sitting there waiting to be sent but stuck. Along with my test emails.
I found an artical that talks about going into ADSIEdit and delete the old exchange 2003 empty server folder. Did that and email is still not flowing.
Servers are in the same AD same subnet. ex 2007 is installed on a 2003 box. ex 2010 is on 2008r2.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi vasdavidson,
For this issue, I suggest you follow these steps to troubleshoot the problem:
1.
Please paste the exact error you got in queue viewer.
2.
On Exchange 2007, (use telnet) send emails to Exchange 2010, then check whether it can receive email or not.
Thanks,
Evan

Migrating 2003 to 2010 - public folders - stuck in SmtpRelayToTiRg queue?

I'm in the process of migrating Exchange 2003 over to 2010. Both systems are DCs (2010 running on server 2012). The routing group connectors (which I believe this queue relates to) are in place. All the user mailboxes and mail flow has been migrated over
to 2010 already, users have been happily emailing internally and externally as normal for a few days now, and I wish to shut 2003 down. I've just moved over the OAB and followed instructions for moving public folder replicas which I found here : http://exchangeserverpro.com/migrate-public-folders-from-exchange-2003-to-exchange-server-2010/
The process began successfully about 12 hours ago, and after a while I noticed some of the PF instances from 2003 appearing over on 2010. But it hasn't progressed in a long time, with only a few of the instances having appeared on 2010, and none of them
have disappeared from 2003. Then I noticed a queue suddenly building up on 2010, under "SmtpRelayToTiRg". There's over 100 messages in there, and they're all apparently destined for 2003 but are unable to be delivered. This queue was definitely not
there before I began the PF "move all replicas" process. So I've got the process apparently stuck, and a queue building up. What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance :)

Hi Statick,
Few days ago even I faced the same problem when I migrated from 2003 to 2010.Long queue got built in my test mailboxes and all mails stuck and were not getting delivered. When I was
trying to resolve the issue, I found that server was not able to deliver because it was not able to route correctly. This problem "SmtpRelayToTiRg queue"
generally arises in public folders while moving all replicas.
So in order to fix this problem, I just added IP address of new Exchange server 2010 and complete queue vanished in few minutes.
I hope this will work for you.

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:

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.

Public Folders no longer visible in Outlook 2007 with Exchange 2010

Hi all,
This is a perplexing problem because I though I had done everything right
About 1 year ago, I migrated my Exch2007 to Exch2010. The 2007 hardware was showing signs of quitting but it hung in there long enough to complete the migration.
All the user mailboxes, OWA, all other functions moved to the new server.
We use legacy Pub Folders and I manually created a Pub folder database and set up all the Pub folders to replicate from 2007 to the 2010. Once replication has taken place, I removed the 2007 replication partner on all the Pub and System folders in
prep for removing the 2007. But then I got busy and never finished removal.
Flash forward to a few weeks ago and the Exch 2007 box goes down hard, RAID containers gone, totally lost. I did not immediately worry since all was still fine with Outlook and Pub Folder Access.
I got around to cleaning things up and after verifying that there was nothing pointing to the old server including the OAB and any PF, I used ADSIedit to remove the reference to the old server in the Exchange Organization. Since then, although I still
see the PF object in the Mgmt Tool, Outlook does not see their existence. OWA cannot see them either.
I have read that GAL problems can cause this so I have recreated this object to see if will help.
Has anyone else faced this situation? I really need to get PF access back...

Here is an update:
When attempting to "Update" the Default Offline Address List, I get the following error:
Microsoft Exchange Error
Action 'Update' could not be performed on object 'Default Offline Address List'.
Default Offline Address List
Failed
Error:
Couldn't find database "Acteon.local/Configuration/Deleted Objects/Public Folder Database

IIS 6.0 - so many mails stuck in mail queue

Hi All,
From past 2 days, so many mails are getting stuck in mail queue folder. Normally, when there are more than 20 mails in queue, we used to restart SMTP and the queue gets cleared immediately. But , now the situation has changed. When we restart SMTP to clear
mails in queue, they keep on increasing, say from 20 to 100 and then after 1 hour or so, the number goes to 20-25 and again increasing. We have not changed anything, but dnt know why this is happening suddenly from past 2 days. Users also are complaining that
they are getting notification mails very late. The mails are not getting send and just staying in queue for a long time. I checked in SMTP log and found " OutboundConnectionResponse SMTPSVC1 E-SALES - 25 - - 421-4.7.0+[203.170.190.51++++++15]+Our+system+has+detected"+an+unusual+rate+of
0 0 77 0 17891 SMTP - - - -"
Kindly help and Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you,
Phani.

Hi Darin,
Thank you for your reply. We dont have Azure.
Actually, we have an e-payment website and when users made transactions, the notification mails go to users. We are using IIS web server v6.0 for this whole set up and SMTP is also configured in this. Basically, I am programmer and this is not my work domain.
I am taking care of this server for time being and don't have much information/idea. Today, I observed the mails in queue are processing normally, but we did not change anything. What could be the reason for long mail queue for previous 2 days? can you throw
some light on this? :)
Thank you.
hi,
It seems like this issue may be not related to azure . I suggest you could post this issue into IIS forum or Window server General forum
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/home?forum=winservergen for more helps.

Is there any option to see ms exchange 2010 public folders on my mail.app?

Hi all,
I wonder to know if it is possible to work with public folders with my mail.app. The corporate server is a Ms Exchange Server 2010 v14.02.
Thanks in advance,

Why are emails in public folders being marked as read when viewed in the viewing pane when I have disabled this in settings

I am using office 2010 on a windows 7 PC. In outlook I have changed the settings for the reading pane so that emails are not marked as read unless I actually open them. This is working for emails in my inbox and outbox but not for emails in public
folders. Emails in public folders are marked as read as soon as I click on them. Do public folders have a different setting for marking email as read in the reading pane?
It is important for me that emails in the public folders are not marked as read when i click on them as I need to read through hundreds of project emails in these folders and need to be able to distinguish between emails I have read and actioned
and emails I have just clicked on while searching for an email I need. This folder serves as an archive for my emails so i cant delete them once I have read them. I also don't have permission to label them or create tasks from them.

Hi,
I tested in my lab, it worked for public folders. My Outlook version is Outlook 2013.
Please open Outlook in safe mode to check result.
If possible, please check if this issue persists from a different client server.

What to do with mail stuck in mail queue?

I think i have my web and e-mail server running fine, all mail from the users is coming and going as should. But I have to delete the mail queue every two days or so because it is filling up with junk mail to unknown senders and users. I think everting is setup correct and I do not have an open relay, but is there some way I can have it delete the junk mail in this queue by itself?

Most likely you have postfix configured to accept any mail. Being for known or unknown users. Thus, mail for unknown users (mostly spam) gets only bounced at a later stage (cyrus/IMAP), which in turn creates those pesky Mailer-Daemon messages in your queue.
Being spam, there is usually no proper return address, so those messages stay in your queue, until they expire after 5 days (default value).
See my tutorial on how to improve Postfix' configuration here: http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/62/

Mail Stuck in Mail Queue

This weekend, I did a clean install on my Apple OS X server (the upgrade from 10.3 to 10.4 introduced some weird behavior, so I wanted to do a clean install 10.4 --> 10.4 to clear out the problems). I used mailbfr to backup my imap datebase and I exported my users and groups from Workgroup Manager.
I then did the clean install. After applying the software updates and repairing permissions, I used Workgroup Manager to import the old groups and users. Then, I applied all of the old passwords to the user accounts.
I then used mailbfr to restore the old mail.
At this point, all of the old mail (backed up by mailbfr) is apprearing fine in the client mail applications, but all new mail is going to the mail queue and is just sitting there. I've tried "sudo postsuper -r ALL" and that just re-queues the mail.
A typical SMTP message reads:
Jul 22 22:11:36 mail postfix/qmgr[303]: 979324F446: from=<[email protected]>, size=1750, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Jul 22 22:11:36 mail postfix/qmgr[303]: 979324F446: to=<[email protected]>, relay=none, delay=267, status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable)
For the same message the Mail Queue offers the following detail information:
Message ID: 4388A4F41B
Date: Sat Jul 22 22:18:50
Size: 1892
Sender: [email protected]
Recipient(s) & Status:
[email protected]:
delivery temporarily suspended: transport is unavailable
Do you have any of you have ideas as to how I might fix this problem?

Well ... a big fat nevermind. Sorry about that. I stopped and restarted the server after posting this, and mail started receiving just fine and the queue cleared itself.
All seems well.

Mail flow is not working Exchange 2010 to 2013 in coexistence mode

Hi ,
We are migrating Exchange 2010 sp3 to Exchange 2013.
mail flow is not working from 2010 to 2013, mails are qued up in smtp relay queueu.
already added 2010 ip address to 2013 receive connector and give anonymous permission.
but still mails are smtp relay queue.

Hi Sujith,
As requested by
Nithyanandham please post the error from Queue Viewer.
Few things to check.
Please remove IP address from "Default Receive connector" first.
Ensure both servers can ping by FQDN and it returns correct IP. i.e. ping exch2013.contoso.com
Make sure both exchange server can communicate each other. if possible try to telnet port 25 by FQDN of the Exchange2013 server and try to send an email from exchange2010 using the URL below. if there is any error please post error.
http://exchange.mvps.org/smtp_frames.htm
Make sure "Exchange server Authentication" is ticked in your default receive connector properties. If not ticked tick it and restart Transport service and check mail flow again.
Thanks, MAS

Outlook 2010 Certificate Alert when connecting to Exchange 2010 Server

Hi,
I am receiving the below security alert when launching a domain joined Outlook 2010 client;
The security certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust
This is a self-signed certificate on the CAS server role which is separate to the Hub and Mailbox. Unless something is completely screwed, Outlook 2007 against Exchange 2007 had no issues with domain joined machines and self-signed certificates.
The following KB article explains the same issue http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/2006728 but this is a native Exchange 2010 environment with no previous versions of CAS roles.
Any help appreciated.
Cheers

Hi,
Yes, when internal user try to use outlook to connect exchange Server, outlook will try to find the e-mail address and exchange server name from AD. After that it will look for SCP and then find the correct the autodiscover server to connect, retrieve settings.
So during the process of connecting to exchange server, it will have to use autodiscover to connect and retrieve user settings. So certificate regard to autodiscover will cause the issue.
I’d like to share the process of how internal outlook user connect to exchange server.
1.    Automatically retrieve e-mail address from Active Directory if domain joined machine.
2.    Retrieve Exchange Server name if found and store for later.
3.    Look for SCP objects or SCP pointer objects that correspond to user’s e-mail address, and find the correct Autodiscover server to connect to; then connect and retrieve settings.
4.    If previous step fails, attempt DNS discovery of Autodiscover XML (allowing for 10 redirects).
a.    HTTPS POST: https://DOMAIN/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
b.    HTTPS POST: https://autodiscover.DOMAIN/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
c.    HTTP GET: http://autodiscover.DOMAIN/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml (only to follow redirects, not to get settings)
d.    DNS SRV lookup: _autodiscover._tcp.DOMAIN (only to follow the redirect the SRV record points to)
5.    If previous step fails, attempt local XML discovery and use XML found on the local machine if applicable.
6.    If previous step fails but an Exchange Server name is found in step 2, configure Exchange account based on Exchange Server name.
7.    If previous step is not applicable, attempt Common Settings Discover, as described in the next section.
More related information to share with you:
Security warning when you start Outlook 2007 and then connect to a mailbox that is hosted on a server that is running Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2010: "The name of the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site"

Forwarding e-mails from GW 7 to Exchange 2010

Can someone please tell me what needs to be done to forward e-mails from GroupWise 7 to and Exchange 2010 environment? We have migrated to Exchange 2010 but some employees didn't get all of their e-mails migrated over. I would like to set it up so that they can go in to their GW account and forward the e-mails to themselves and have them show up in their Exchange account. Any ideas on how to do this would be appreciated. Thanks.

IMAP will only give them access to their live mail. You set up Outlook
as an IMAP client (trivial to do) and point it at the GW PO or GWIA and
then their livemailbox folder structure is accessible. You then tell
them "I'll keep GW up for a couple months, move stuff as you need it,
and then it's gone"
For archives to make this work they'll have to unarchive pieces of their
mail.
