connect address book to shared contacts in exchangeI am attempting to get windows address book (wab.exe) to connect to our
exchange server and search through the shared contacts folder.
i have a connection to the server and it works when searching through
all the domains users. i can't seem to find the right search base to
use however to make it search through the shared contacts folder. does
anyone know the right syntax for the search base to use on a pretty

Exchange 2003 System manager hangsHello,
When I try to view the public folders using the Exchange
system manager (root > Folder > Public folders), system
manager takes the server utilization to 100% and stops
responding. I let it run overnight to see what would
happen: nothing.
Set up a testserver from scratch: same problem.
Searched the knowledgebase and found some articles, but
the given solutions do not apply to this problem.
Anybody a clue?
Greetings,
Simon Weel
Are there any error events being logged that have anything to do with HTTP,
W3SVC etc?

Exchange 2003 performance QuestionHi all,
This has been asked before, but its difficult sifting through 100's of
messages.
I have a single Domain in a Single Forest.
We have two domain controllers 1 in our west coast office and 1 in our east
coast office.
They are connected by a VPN tunnel.
The exchange server is located in West Coast office.
both domain controllers are Global catalog servers and the RID,PID, and
Infrastructure roles are handled by the West Coast Domain Controller.
I ran the best practices analizer on the server and one thing it mentioned
is that the query time for domain controller access and g...
Inherited permissions on Exchange Domain Servers Group won't stay checkedHi there,
We are in a bit of a bind. The Inherited Permissions box for the
Exchange Domain servers group in our child domain (child.parent.local)
keeps unchecking itself.
We are running W2K3 with E2K3, one parent domain and 3 child domains.
Only one of the 3 child domains is having this problem. Replication
occurs every 15 mins, and the change happens about 30 mins after we
reset the permission.
As you can imagine this is playing havoc with our RUS. Any help would
be appreciated. Thanks.

Retrieve POP3 from Exchange 2003?I have exchange 2003 standard.
Currently have the individual Outlook clients retrieving their own POP3 mail
from our ISP.
Is there a way to have the Exchange server do this for them?
I'm asking because the Outlook client has to be active in order to check the
mail, but I have a few people who go out in the field and don't turn on
their computers in the office... so they can check mail via the Outlook web
access, but it will only show them the internally sent mails.. not any that
are on their ISP account.
Any ideas?
I am planning on bringing all our e-mail in house, but haven't fi...
Exchange 5.5 RPC ProblemsOur 5.5/SP4 environment has started to be problematic regularly, since it's
been in a mixed AD 2003/5.5 site.
The 3x 5.5mailbox servers will "randomly" lose RPC conenctivity to Outlook
clients, however OWA will continue to work.
There's nothing suspicious logged in the event logs. The only fix is to
restart the information store, or if it's our IMAP server, we have to
restart the whole server otherwsie IMAP won't work.
Any clues, or tools? I've tried RCP Ping tools but the documentation is
shitty. How can I use that to determine the availability, ideally I coul...
Setting up hosted accounts in exchange 2003We are trying to host another domain on our exchange server. We have
added the domain into the recipient policy and have our ISP pointing
all mail to our IP. Everything works fine for our main domain that we

from the outside world. The error we receive when trying to send from
an external address is <our address >: Host or domain name not found.

Moving exchange 2000 install to a SAN driveGood Morning!
I was wondering if there is another way to move the entire exchange 2k
install to a SAN drive?
Or can I just change which drive the virtual M uses??
The only thing I have seen that might do this is the disaster recovery
insanity. I would rather only do that if there is a disaster....but if it
keeps from having one, I'm willing to try it.
The info store is already on the SAN.
I have already moved the transaction logs and system path location to the
SAN.
This is the only exchange server I have. Not a DC, just exchange on it.
Thanks

Exchange not releasing mailbox sizeI'll try to explain this as best as I can.
I have Exchage 200, and I've implemented 100 MB limit on all users.
With some users even though they are deleting stuff from the mailbox, their
size just increases until it reaches 100 MB and they are blocked.
But, on Outlook their showing lot less then 100 MB, so their actual size is
not 100MB but lets say 50MB or 40MB.
Any solution for this ?
Are the users clearing their deleted items folder as well?

Can anyone help me to remove exchange 2000 from this server?

Anyone using GFI Faxmaker Exchange?Can anyone tell me if they use this product?
I am trying to get a high-level overview of its usage - can someone describe
their setup?
Thank you.
Faxmaker has a nifty little feature that will detect the faxnumber from the
document and fax it without any further user intervention. For instance,
each month I have to fax off 50 suppliers remmitance advices. These advices
are generated from our accounts package and in the "old days" we would print
them out and stand over a fax machine sending them one by one. Now, we

2 offices, 2 exchange serversI have two offices, in different countries. I setup each with its own
DC/Exchange servers and have the two connected via a site-to-site
vpn. I setup a connector between them and all inbound mail comes into
server a and gets routed to b through the vpn. On the outbound side,
folks on server a send mail through it. On server b in the other
office I set up a smtp connection to send email directly out of it as
well.
Is there any concerns with email from my single domain coming out of
two different IP's?
Not as long as both servers have reverse DNS records.

Need help on merging database on Exchange 2003Hi,
My server is running SBS 2003 with exchange 2003 enabled.
Unfortunately, the anti-virus software deleted a log file under the
mdbdata folder and thus the exchange wasnt running. I was able to get
it running by deleting all the files on the mdbdata folder and
starting from scratch. Now, the users only get new emails and their
old emails are gone. I want to be able to recover the old
emails/contacts,etc. I still have the priv1.edb file but the .stm file
could not be restored from the backup.
What would be the best way to recover those old emails?
I tried just renaming the mdbdata folder but...
Exchange 5.5 reboot requiredOn our Exchange server that is running exchange 5.5 and NT 4 we have to
reboot it everytime we add a new user to E-Mail and our AD on the 2003 server
before the user can log into there E-Mail. Any Ideas? The Exchange server can
see the user in User manager and I can assign the user as the primary mail
account but it denies security like the SID is not being propergated to the
NT 4 server until you reboot it.
Are the databases replicating between nt 40 and ad?
