Exchange 2010

IMCEAMAILTO issue causing "Delivery has failed .."

In Outlook 2007, when a user does a reply to some emails the E-mail Type: changes from the normal SMTP to MAILTO and then when the user sends the email it is rejected because either Outlook or our Exchange server is adding @domain.nl to the end of the recipient’s email address.

This also happens with emails where the senders address is shown as a clickable option [mailto:persons.name@domain.co.uk].

Email address has been changed to Persons.name@domain.co.uk for confidentiality reasons.

Delivery has failed to these recipients or distribution lists:

‘Persons.name@wardvissers.nl’
A problem occurred during the delivery of this message. Microsoft Exchange will not try to redeliver this message for you. Please try resending this message later, or provide the following diagnostic text to your system administrator.

    The “Exchange Server 2010 Technical Video Series” on TechCenter

    The Microsoft Exchange team has produced a new portfolio of videos designed to give customers a fundamental technical education on Exchange Server 2010.

    The objective of the video series is to provide an introductory curriculum for IT professionals to learn more about the benefits of Exchange Server 2010. While TechNet provides great technical documentation at a more granular level, this video series should help bridge the gap for those who are new to Exchange 2010 and still trying to learn about the technical fundamentals of the product.

    Each video runs 20-30 minutes long and includes an overview of the workload as well as a technical demonstration of 3-4 core scenarios related to that workload. The “Exchange Server 2010 Technical Video Series” is hosted by Ann Vu and presented by subject matter experts from the Microsoft Exchange team.

    The Video’s can you find HERE.

    Kemp LoadMaster Sizing Guide for MS Exchange 2010

    Kemp released a cool tool: LoadMaster Sizing Guide for MS Exchange to see which of our products is best for you.

    Some info about Kemp:
    KEMP LoadMaster combines versatility with ease-of-use to speed deployment (see our step-by-step guidelines in the LoadMaster Deployment Guide for Load Balancing MS Exchange 2010) of the complete portfolio of advanced messaging applications and protocols used by Exchange 2010, including Outlook Web Access, Outlook Anywhere, ActiveSync, SMTP, POP3 and IMAP and RPC Client Access (Native MAPI). With built-in SSL acceleration and/or overlay, the LoadMaster offloads a key source of CPU drain to improve the capacity of Client Access Servers. Layer 7 healthchecking at the LoadMaster ensures that should one of the servers become inaccessible, the load balancer will take that server off-line, while automatically re-routing and reconnecting users to other functioning servers. Not quite ready to make the move to Exchange 2010? KEMP LoadMasters integrate seamlessly with earlier versions of Exchange as well.

    GAL Photos in Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010

    With Microsoft Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2010 & Lync & Sharepoint 2010 you can finally get photos into your global address list (GAL) and see just who’s who on your emails. You can do this on 2 way’s

    1. Using Powershell Smile

      A minor schema change

      First stop, the AD Schema. A minor schema modification is required to flip the thumbnailPhoto attribute to make it replicate to the Global Catalog.

      1. If you haven’t registered the Schema MMC snap-in on the server you want to make this change on, go ahead and do so using the following command:

        Regsvr32 schmmgmt.dll

      2. Fire up a MMC console (Start -> Run -> MMC) and add the Schema snap-in

      3. In the Active Directory Schema snap-in, expand the Attributes node, and then locate the thumbnailPhoto attribute. (The Schema snap-in lists attributes by its ldapDisplayName).

      4. In the Properties page, select Replicate this attribute to the Global Catalog, and click OK.

        Figure 1: Modifying the thumbnailPhoto attribute to replicate it to Global Catalog

        Loading pictures into Active Directory

        Now you can start uploading pictures to Active Directory using the Import-RecipientDataProperty cmdlet, as shown in this example:

        Import-RecipientDataProperty -Identity "Ward VIssers" -Picture -FileData ([Byte[]]$(Get-Content -Path "C:\pictures\wardvissers.jpg" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0))

        To perform a bulk operation you can use the Get-Mailbox cmdlet with your choice of filter (or use the Get-DistributionGroupMember cmdlet if you want to do this for members of a distribution group), and pipe the mailboxes to a foreach loop. You can also retrieve the user name and path to the thumbnail picture from a CSV/TXT file.

        2. Using a Free tool like Outlook Photos from Exclaimer

        Download the Tool HERE

        The tool is easy to use Smile.

          Active Directory permissions – The logged in user must have permission to upload photos to the required Active Directory accounts. (Alternate credentials can be supplied or control of the thumbnailPhoto field can be delegated to the logged in user.)

        Operating System

        • Windows Server 2003 x86 (including all service pack levels).

        Exchange 2010 Public Folder Database requirement

        Current Status: Issue with mitigation

        Unlike Outlook 2007 and 2010, Outlook 2003 clients rely on public folders. If a public folder database doesn’t exist, Outlook 2003 users will be blocked from connecting to their Exchange 2010 mailbox and receive the error message shown in Figure 8.


        Figure 8:         Error message when an Outlook 2003 user connects to an Exchange 2010 mailbox

        There are several reasons why a public folder database is required for Outlook 2003 client. First, Outlook 2003 in cached mode uses the “OFFLINE ADDRESS BOOK” system folder to download the offline address book (OAB) and the “SCHEDULE+ FREE BUSY” to retrieve and update free/busy information.


        Figure 9:         Offline Address Book and Schedule+ Free Busy system folders

        Second, if you’re installing Exchange 2010 into an existing Exchange organization running Exchange 2007, it’s important you add the Exchange 2010 public folder database to the replica list of the “SCHEDULE+ FREE BUSY” folder. If this step isn’t completed, users who use Outlook 2003 cannot publish their free/busy data in Exchange Server 2010. Instead hash marks appear in the free/busy data for these users. More information as well as the steps that can be used to remediate this issue can be found in the following KB article:
