Hello,
I have a dead Exchange Server 2003 which was installed on Windows 2000 Advanced Server. I would like to remove it from my domain which consisted of Windows 2003 Server also. How do I go about doing that since i'm upgrading my domain to 2008 & 2013 Servers?
Thanks for any suggestions you may make.
Hi
Setup:
Exchange 2007 On Prem. Exchange 2013 CU2 Hybrid server (both CAS and Mailbox roles on 1 server). Office 365 setup ok. Dirsync and ADFS working ok. Few users migrated from on-prem to O365. Mail flow working OK.
The problem is this - as soon as an on prem user is migrated to O365, their autodiscover stops working against the 2013 Hybrid server. It now comes up with an HTTP Error 500. Running the testexchangeconnectivity tool returns a status of "OrganizationMailboxNotFound"
However - autodiscover for the same user against the 2013 Server on Port 444 (ie the Mailbox role) works perfectly. Copying the contents of the autodiscover folder from the MBX Clientaccess folder to the CAS Httpproxy folder then results in testexchangeconnectivity working perfectly again.
It is almost as if the 2013 CAS is not proxying the requests correctly for users with Office 365 mailboxes. On prem users work ok.
Any thoughts or ideas much appreciated.
Thanks for looking
Hi!
We have Exchange Server 2007 and I want to deploy Exchange 2013 paralell as test platform at first, and then in a couple of months migrate.
Exchange 2013 will be accessible only from internal network, There will be one mailbox, moved from Exchange 2007.
1. Will this mailbox fully functional?
2. Can I access this mailbox through CAS 2007?
3. Are there any other problems, that I can have in this configuration?
Thanks in advance.
I went to install the CU5 update today and it fails on the step Mailbox role: transport service.

I can't use the ECP nor the Shell to remove the Receive Connector (it is just a receive connector for the MFP).
Is there any way to remove this receive connector with Powershell not working?
(It looks like this is the problem: http://exchangemaster.wordpress.com/2014/01/24/incorrectly-adding-new-receive-connector-breaks-exchange-2013-transport/ but since I can't get a shell to run in this failed upgrade state I can't take the recommended fix nor just remove the connector.)Hello, i am currently trying to update our exchange environment from 2010 to 2013 and attempting to install our first 2013 mailbox role. All our existing exchange servers are 2010 sp3 update roll up 5 and i am using exchange 2013 cu8 for the 2013 install.
I have completed all the prerequisites sucessfully i.e prepareschema preparead and preparealldomains. Exchange 2010 is currently installed in a child domainI monitored the forest replication status for any issues after each command and had no problems.
I have checked the various ADSI attributes to confirm the appropriate changes.
The problem i having each time i run the setup the prereq check fails with the following error
The local domain needs to be prepared using Setup PrepareDomain before server roles can be installed
and the error below appears in the setup logs
Failed Rule Domain PrepRequired Message The local domain needs to be prepared using Setup PrepareDomain before server roles can be installed.
But like i say this has definitely been done.
Additionally if i run the setup in the root domain the prereqs pass and it would allow me to install exchange.
Does anyone have any idea what the setup is actually checking for? or any ideas how to get past it or what exactly might be going on?
Thanks
After installation of rollup 9 on Exchange server 2010, powershell cannot recognize parameter "Automapping"
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-Mailbox some@e-mail.com | add-MailboxPermission -AccessRights FullAccess -User some@e-mail.com -Automapping $false A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'False'.+ CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Add-MailboxPermission], ParameterBindingException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Add-MailboxPermission
When I look at a help, Automapping is presented there, but does not work for now.
Before Rollup 9 it worked just fine.
Is there no such parameter anymore in Rollup 9?

Hello,
We wanted to ask the community if anyone has done the following with success:
We are setting up two new domains. One "account" domain, and ones Exchange Resource Forest domain. We want to migrate mailboxes from the existing domain, to the new resource forest. The documentation I have reviewed on this seems to involve simply two domains, and doesn't involve a resource forest with linked mailboxes.
The source domain is using Exchange 2010 SP3. The new resource forest will be Exchange 2013.
So what we want to know is: what is the best way to move mailboxes from the legacy domain to the new ERF once it has been created?
Hi,
We have 8 Boxes of Exchange 2010 is running in Environment. 4 out of 8 having Mailbox role installed rest two have one URL :https://mail.abc.com/owa and remaining two havinghttps://mail2.abc.com/owa running.
The reason behind two URL is to segregate users of two geographical regions. We have plan to upgrade to Exchange 2013 as it is having proxy and redirection feature would like to consolidate 2 URLs. We want to configure 1 URL in Exchange box and want if user from another url tries to access that URL redirect it to URL which is configured on Exchange 2013.
We have F5 load balancer in place which is capable of redirection, I am worried on Exchange 2013 configurations can anyone help me to answer below queries.
1. How OWA access would work?
2. How Active Sync & OAB would work in this case?
An Early reply would be appreciated !!

Our current Active Directory domain consists of 3 Windows 2003 domain controllers. The FFL and DFL are Windows 2003. In the domain, we have a member server running Exchange 2003 Server for messaging and another Windows 2008 member server running MOSS 2007.
We have been given a budget for an IT refresh and would like to upgrade to the latest versions of these products where possible. I have read various blogs that advise that an Exchange 2003 messaging environment is not supported in a Windows 2012 domain. My dilema is where to start I want to upgrade Active Directory to 2012 and also Exchange to Exchange Server 2013. Is there a recommended approach to this without breaking the system?
Thanks

There's a statement in the below article that Exchange 2013 "out of the box" works just fine behind TMG when TMG is configured for delegated auth using NTLM. It explains that FBA and Windows Integrated auth are both enabled for OWA/ECP.
Can anybody confirm that this is still the case? I'm experiencing double prompt with TMG and Exchange 2013 (CU8) forms. I notice that Windows Integrated is disabled, and if I enable it FBA is automatically disabled (just like in 2010).
this is error i get when trying to remove exchange 2013. i had a error on install and and had to uninstall and its giving me this one..
The following error was generated when "$error.Clear();
foreach ($a in (get-receiveconnector -server $RoleFqdnOrName -DomainController $RoleDomainController | where { $_.TransportRole -eq "HubTransport" }))
{
remove-receiveconnector -Identity:$a.Identity -DomainController $RoleDomainController -Confirm:$false;
}
" was run: "Didn't find the Exchange group that has the GUID "6c01d2a7-f083-4503-8132-789eeb127b84". This group is created during setup, but it has been deleted.".
I get the above error while installation reaches Pre- requisite stage. I have followed the link to the suggested solution but that has no useful information. Any assistance is appreciated.
I have SQL server running on the server but not sure if Exchange has its own SQLServer that is causing this problem
Hello,
I'm trying to find out what the limit is of creating distribution list in Exchange 2010.
The answers I find is the maximum of recipients within a distribution list.
I think we would like to create more than 3000 distribution lists. Is that possible? What are the limits?
Hi,

Hi Everyone
I have a question:
Scenario:
-) Microsoft Exchange OnLine with some email address; in this case I use mail01@mydomain.com
-) TWO Computers with Windows 7Pro and Oulook 2010
Question:
Can I set mail01@mydomain.com into First PC with Outlook 2010 using IMAP and into the second PC with Outlook 2010 using Exchange Protocol (not IMAP)?
This type of configuration can cause issues?
Thank you very much for all your replay
