Virtual Mail Server (Exchange 2007)

G'day,
I have 10.5.4 server running on a 1.66GHz Core Duo MacMini. I'm desperate to have a push mail server running and I'm about to go ahead with this design. Just wanted to see what you guys thought about it first.
10.5.4 server as the primary system
VMWare Fusion emulating 2003 Enterprise Server R2 with 2003 Exchange Server SP1
Could have all the files locally based on the server and the beauty of virtual environment is that I can simply reboot to previously saved settings if anything is to go pair shaped.
Let me know what you think.

Actually I was thinking of doing the same thing, but with my PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8Ghz, 2GB Ram, 34GB Raptor 10K boot volume, and 150G Data store.
Does Apple's Leo Server have push cal/mail/contacts? I desperately need a simple setup as well for our office, and currently run a test Server 2008 environment running Exchange 2007, but its overly bloated and so many configuration options.
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..):

I'll try deleting and reinstalling the Developer Tools as hinted at in the above post, but I'm not so sure it'll make a difference for me, as my Mac Pro was immediately loaded with SL.

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 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.

Mail.app exchange 2007 Assertion failure in EWSConnect sendMessage:forReque

Snow leopard hasn't worked properly with our exchange server for months, I was hoping this would be sorted in 10.6.3 but it seems not.
Incoming mail is fine, sending text emails or sendmail with attachments such as PDFs is also ok. The problem is when sending / forwarding any HTML mails, or by sending an email with an embedded image.
Upon doing this the mail sits in the outbox and gives the following error to the console

One fix is to switch the outbound SMTP manually to be the exchange hostname or say a home ISP but this is a hack considering sending mail clearly works purely over SSL and web services, it's just certain attachments that are failing. It's also a pain for travelling users with laptops who won't always have access to SMTP due to blocked ports etc.
Similar issues but no fixes

Trashing mail.app and the .plist makes no difference which does seem to fix it for some people (still a hack again though)
This is also not related to the issues of sending attachments of 10meg+, for e.g.

Sane virtual mail server setup?

I'm giving up. I want a simple mail server setup (imaps, pop3s, smtps) with virtual user support that I can comfortably configure from the web (PostfixAdmin, web-cyradm, courier-web). I want to manage multiple users on multiple domains. It appears that the task I want to accomplish is insanely complex for some reason. I'd like to use as few different software packages as possible.
I can't find a simple and sane tutorial on the topic and I don't even care what software is going to be used. Of course, I did search and play around with the config for hours but to no avail. The tutorials in the Arch wiki are no good either, they are either outdated or do not allow me to do web configuration.
Help me out here, please.

It's always good to have alternatives, but out of curiousity, did you not try the courier-mta wiki? I used that wiki guide recently and it had me running with a system like what you describe without too much fuss. The only stuff I haven't tried/used is web-based administration or mail access; perhaps this was the problem for you?

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
Message was edited by: Link Dupont

I had the same problem.... but then I restarted Mail Mac and the To Do went back online..... but now I have a different problem..... I create a To Do.... and it will display that there´s 1 To do item... but then I restart Mail Mac and it will show me that I have 2 To do item...... like it get´s duplicated but only one is shown.... any ideas???.. same problem anyone???.... also I cannot create events on iCal.... anoying..

Updated Office 2011 for Mac (14.4.1), cannot connect to Exchange server (Exchange 2007).

I updated Office 2011 for Mac to its 14.4.1 version and, out of the blue, it could not connect to the Exchange server anymore. At my office they use Exchange 2007 and I am the only Mac in the building. I've deleted the account and added it again countless
times, and it reports username, password or security configuration issues.
I checked the HD (everything OK) and repaired the main identity (everything OK).
Still, I cannot get the color button to go from orange to green.
Hope someone can help.

That's weird. I'll try to reproduce it in our labs.
What's the Exchange 2007 version? You can get it in EMS (Exchange Management Shell) with:
GCM exsetup |%{$_.Fileversioninfo}
I guess you are running Mavericks v10.9.3, and you are trying to connect locally?

Sync selected Mail accounts - Exchange 2007

I am trying to determine the limitations of syncing Mail accounts through iTunes to an iPod Touch.
I am using the latest version of Snow Leopard, iTunes and iOS. The iPod Touch is a 2nd generation 8GB model.
I have a GMail IMAP and an Outlook Live Exchange 2007 account in Mail. In iTunes it only indicates the IMAP account. Is this because iTunes cannot sync Exchane accounts. I can setup the Exchange account on Mail and the iPod Touch seperately but, I would prefer to have it synced to make it tidier.
Is this possible?
Thank you in advance.

Is this possible?
No. Your exchange account syncs over the air.

Mails Lost Exchange 2007

Hi,
I've some problems with the exchange server 2007. We are losing some mails and it looks like they getting lost between the Edge and the Hub role. All roles are installed on one physical device (no vms). I searched the one of the lost mails with the trouble
shooting tool and found it after that i check the details with get-messagetrackinglog -internalmessageid "XXXX".
The result was that this "lost message" has just one entry with the eventID RECEIVE. Then I checked an email for the same sender which arrived the mailbox. This mail has two entries, one with eventID RECEIVE and another with the eventID DELIVER.
My question is how can I find and resend this lost emails. They can not be in the queue anymore bnecause they are deleted after the categorizer categorizes them.
Is there a shell command to resend them?
Where can I find the e-mails, are tehy still cached on the system?
Thanks for your Help

Hi,
as you can see in my earlier post I checked two messages of the same sender, one good and one bad message.
Both were received from the system and one was acctually delivered.
I just called the one mail "Badmail" because it didn't went trough to the mailbox but it was recived and it still think it got lost on the way from teh queue to the mbx.
Trackinglog Bad mail (check out the full log in my first post)

>The mail comes in ->edge puts it into the queue->categorizier checks it (smtp adr..) ->transferstarts + queue entry is removed
Here is the Agentlog and as I've written the logs look fine.

Troubles setting up a virtual mail server

Hi,
I'm having trouble setting up my email server. It has an Domain name (eg. ftp8.mydomain.com) but not really a Host Name. I guess you could use the same as above (ftp8.mydomain.com), no?
Next, enabled virtual hosting and enter a few domains (eg. thisdomain.com, thatdomain.net, yourdomain.org). I created 3 accounts, 1 for each, for now.
Ran some test. I can send out to other email accounts not on this server. I can send and receive to the same machine (eg. [email protected] to [email protected]).
But I can't receive email from accounts not on this machine.
What's missing?
Thanks for any help.
Frank

Frank,
The MX for sofa.on.ca is (sofa.on.ca. 86400 IN MX 1 mail2.dpimac.com.)
The MX record resolves to 216.183.93.88 (mail2.dpimac.com. 86400 IN A 216.183.93.88) which appears to be an OSXS machine. It's running Apache 1.3 -- is this a Tiger or Leopard server?
May I suggest you take a look at this -- maybe it can help you: http://rduonline.com/notes.mgi
Look through the section on setting up VH mail accounts in the SA -- this is where most folks make mistakes.

Mail with Exchange 2007 - Rules for "Mark as Read" and "Move to Folder"

I have seen this posted before, but never any resolution. This is very frustrating to me.
I have an Exchange account set up in the the latest version of Mail.app (4.4.1082) for OS X 10.6.6. I have rules set up for this account that tell Mail.app to mark the message as read after moving the message to a specific folder if it meets the provided criteria. The rule does move the message to the proper folder, but it does not mark the message as read. This only seems to affect Exchange accounts.
Has anybody experiencing this found a resolution? I have tried separating the rules or putting them in a different order (and mail just reorders them the way it wants which is frustrating to me as well). Seems no matter how I do it the mail either gets marked and not moved or moved and not marked.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Exchange 2007 to 2013 virtual directories

I'm gathering information before I do my transition to Exchange 2013. One thing I'm not sure about is the virtual directory for OWA. The information I have gathered states to change the internal/external URL to legacy.domain.com. However
my virtual directory for OWA are not defined. How do I approach that? do I just not set anything?
Thanks

I planned on configuring each like this below. I'm not using UM but that is also good to know. Outlook Anywhere is enabled on the 2007 side. This is also just a single exchange server
Internal DNS and Certificate will have these entries.
mail.mydomain.com - Points to Exchange 2013
autodiscover.mydomain.com - Points to Exchange 2013
legacy.mydomain.com - Points to Exchange 2007

Cannot send mail from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007

I have an
Exchange 2007server with all roles in the same server (Version:
08.03.0327.001 ) on a Windows 2008 R2 server. I have now installed two Exchange 2013 servers both with CAS and MBX roles on Windows 2012 servers
(full patched). There is also a DAG between the new servers. All mail goes through a BorderWare besides the internal mail.
I can send mail from both environments to the Internet. I can also send internal mail from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013.But the problem is that I am unable to send from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2007. I've debugged, but not solved the problem and there are
few articles on the Internet.
Any suggestions?

These two sentences are in conflict : "I can also send
internal mail
from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. But
the problem is
that I am unable
to send from Exchange
2007 to
Exchange 2013. "
Can you describe what is your real problem? Flow from E2007->E2013? Or vice versa?
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you. Thank you! Damir
