In order for a single front-end/CAS box to serve up both Exchange 2003 and
Exchange 2007 mailboxes, it *must be* on a separate box from the Mailbox role.
Once you put the CAS and Mailbox roles on the same physical server, that CAS
instance *cannot* access legacy Exchange mailbox servers.

You cannot use a down-level Exchange front-end/CAS server to talk to more recent
Exchange mailbox servers. The CAS/front-end server must be running at least the
most current version of Exchange that you have in your organization. That's why,
when you deploy service packs, you should almost always deploy them on front-end
servers and CAS servers first.

If you absolutely have to do this, I recommend building the new Exchange 2007
server with MBX, CAS, and HT roles, then standing up a temporary CAS-only
server. Carefully document and test your configuration on this CAS box so that
you can duplicate the configuration on the combined Exchange 2007 server.
Repoint your firewall rules to this temporary CAS box once you've tested it and
everything is working. Then, you can migrate your mailboxes over to the Exchange
2007 box. Once they're gone and the 2003 box has been decommissioned, you can
reconfigure the CAS role on the mailbox server, repoint the firewall rules, and
decommission the temporary CAS server.

Nice Solution. I think my only option would be for the Temporary CAS
server to be a Virtual Server to prevent buying more hardware. I don't
think the bosses would go for that.

Thanks! Sounds like that should work nicely.

This is a great time to use a virtual server, honestly, especially if you don't
have too many user mailboxes to migrate and it'll be happening quickly.

If you want real archiving, not the move to PST archiving that Outlook does, that does not use PSTs and helps to eliminate PSTs you need to look at a 3^rd party solution. The 3^rd party solution don’t require client side changes or end-user to do anything for archiving to work.

I’ve deployed E2007 to one of my client sites. We have headoffice with ISA 2006 in front of an Exchange 2007 CA server and another CA/MBX server within the same site. We have multiple CA/MBX servers spread across other sites behind this configuration all connected via a WAN. OWA works fine for users across all sites. ActiveSync however only works for user with mailboxes stored on the headoffice site. I can’t find any real reference to modifications that I might need to do to the remote sites to make them work and their configuration looks to be the same as the CA/MBX server in the headoffice site. What I see is on the mobile device, it prompts for the users password each time I try to sync, if I enter it, it requests it again and again. Any clues guys on what / where I need to look please?

I totally understand that without the domain name it is not a valid
email address and if this was an internet facing server, I probably
wouldn't even think about doing it.  I just figured if I could do it
in Exchange 2000, maybe I could do it in 2007.

Interesting that the reason I could do it in 2000 was because of a
design flaw.

martywestra

I recently migrated from Exchange 2000 to 2007.  I have everything
migrated except my Public Folders (I may have some other questions
about that too) but today's issue is that I have some performance
issues on the client side when opening and sending attachments and
sometimes switching between a plain text message and HTML message in
the preview pane.  Near as I can tell, it appears that the
Win2k/Office XP workstations have no performance issues.  Windows
XP/Office XP are the workstations with issues.

We have 1 Windows 2003 DC that has Exchange 2007 and Blackberry
Professional Server on it.  It's got all the FSMO roles and is the
only Global Catalog.  We also have 3 Windows 2000 DCs.  One of those
DCs has Exchange 2000.  On the client side, we currently have a
mixture of Windows 2000 and Windows XP.  Everyone has Office XP.

I installed a trial version of Quest Software's Spotlight on
Exchange.  Everything stays in the green except memory is in the
orange, which I understand that store.exe will use whatever memory it
can find for caching.  After a few minutes of running, I start to get
a bunch of clients that have an RPC latency > 2 seconds.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get my performance back up
to an acceptable level?

Let me know if you need any additional information.

Wow – I just figured this posting got lost…

Thanks for the feedback, but after re-creating the routing connectors on the 2003 server, then recreating through the powershell, still nothing was going. It wasn’t until I woke up and remembered the SMTP connector on the 2003 server was sending mail through a gateway server (which wasn’t allowed to send to the 2007 by default) did I realize where I goofed up. Removed the setting in the connector (after I had already manually moved the public folder content) and then replication occurred the way it should… and of course left me with 2 sets of public folders. Guess 2 is better than none.

Have you also created a routing group connector between 2003 and 2007 to allow these messages to get routed between the servers? If no, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997292(EXCHG.80).aspx on how to implement this.

You've added a replica on the Exchange 2007 server for each folder, right? How long have you waited? Replication can take a while. Do you see any public folder replication messages in the SMTP queue? Has the hierarchy replicated (as evidenced by the get-publicfolder cmdlet)?

I am not seeing the public folders appear on the 2007 server. I have
gone into each folder and set it to replicate and changed the time
parameters - I can move mailboxes and I can create new public folders
on the 2007 server... but the ones on the 2003 server just do not want
to play nice. Any ideas?

Yeah, well, pretty much all of transport, which includes SMTP, was rewritten for exchange 2007.

In fact, almost everything but the backend (the store) is now managed code in 2007.

I totally understand that without the domain name it is not a valid
email address and if this was an internet facing server, I probably
wouldn't even think about doing it. I just figured if I could do it
in Exchange 2000, maybe I could do it in 2007.

Interesting that the reason I could do it in 2000 was because of a
design flaw.

So….does anything besides Spotlight say that your performance isn’t acceptable? Or did you install Spotlight because you were having performance issues and you were trying to identify them?

Have you looked at more granular information – like processor utilization, memory usage (page faults most interestingly), and disk queuing on the Exchange server?

I’m a traditionalist and generally believe in starting at the bottom and working up, instead of the other ‘way round.

Michael,

Thanks for the reply.  Funny you should mention to start at the
bottom and work your way up.

The one thing that Spotlight does not show is network utilization.  I
do my backup across the wire and noticed that they were taking
FOREVER to complete.

Logged into the switch and found that there were more CRC errors than
actual good packets transmitted.  Moved the server to another port on
the switch and everybody's happy!

I successfully decommissioned my Exchange 2000 server as well as
another 2000 DC/DHCP/DNS server this weekend.  Little bit of fallout
this morning, but glad this project is over.

Thanks to everyone for their help,

Subject: Full Access to Mailboxes

martywestra

All,

I've got a perplexing issue.  I recently migrated from Exchange 2000 to
Exchange 2007.

I've granted Full Access permissions to all mailboxes to a subset of
our IT department by using the following commands:

Get-Mailbox | Add-MailboxPermission -User MIS -AccessRights FullAccess
and
Get-MailboxDatabase | Add-ADPermission -User MIS -AccessRights
GenericAll -ExtendedRights Receive-As

There are still some mailboxes that our group can not access.  If I use
the EMC and look at the Full Access Permissions, it shows <Domain>\Self
and <Domain>\<our IT group>.  I've tried removing the IT group and re-
adding it but that does not help either.  I have other mailboxes that
have the EXACT same security settings and they work just fine for me,
but not another member of the group.

If I create a new user and add <Domain>\<our IT group> to the Full
Access permissions, everything works fine.

Has anyone run into this issue or have any suggestions on how to fix it?

Thanks,
Marty

This isn't an easy thing to diagnose. The first thing you should do is verify that you have mailflow between the servers. Create a mailbox store, if necessary, and a test mailbox and verify tha tyou can send mail between the two servers. You can also use the Test-Mailflow cmdlet. Also, run the Best Practices Analyzer.

This firm has had a contractor install 2008 server with exchange 2007
into a 2k3 server network. It was running but too many problems to
mention. They moved the 2007 to a 2003 server and worked out most of
the bugs. Then installed some recent patches 2 days ago and now no
Active Sync devices work. Even a new user on the 2008 server or the
2003 server or a new device changes anything. I believe this is yet
another new undocumented "Feature" Microsoft does not have a patch for
yet and is deeply embedded in the AD on the 2008 server.



    Any recent issues that may be similar or you think are related
would be appreciated. I will either suggest decommissioning the 2008
server first after disconnecting it from the network for 3 to 4 days
and / or hacks on the registry and Global, Enterprise AD changes.

Referrals don't affect replication, just whether Outlook will cross routing groups to look for content.

Are there any public folder replication messages in the queues?

Did you add the new server as a replica on all folders, including the system folders for OAB, free/busy and organizational forms (if you use that one)?

What does get-publicfolder –recurse show you on the 2007 side? If it shows nothing, then replication is busted as you should at least see the hierarchy at this point. If you haven’t already, I would turn on message tracking on the 2003 side and see if any PF replication messages are being generated. If there are no folders listed on the 2007 side, check to see if they “are” making it to the 2007 server and if they are being delivered locally to the 2007 PF store using message tracking. I would also check to see if any messages are being queued like Ed mentioned.

Also check out these references for all your PF replication troubleshooting needs.

Referrals don't affect replication, just whether Outlook will cross routing groups to look for content.

Are there any public folder replication messages in the queues?

Did you add the new server as a replica on all folders, including the system folders for OAB, free/busy and organizational forms (if you use that one)?

Subject: Mail notification when an e-mail arrives to public folder

appi_0

Hi Guys,
i got a strange problem here, i have setup a mail notification on a
public folder to a group of internal users.all it does is  when a new
mail arrives into public folder an e-mail will be sent to a group of
users letting them know that an e-mail is arrived into the public
folder.i have achived this one by setting a rule using a folder
assistant--->reply with [TEMPLATE], where i mentioned the group of
users who needs an alert when an e-mail arrives into this public
folder. everything worked upuntil last month, just before i have for an
holiday and now the problem is if anybody sends an e-mail to this
public folder, offcourse it is sending an alert to the group of users i
mentioned in the rule PLUS it is sending the same alert message to the
actual sender of that mail, which is annoying.can anybody sugest what
might be happening here.i ahve deleted the rules and recreated them
back but still the same. i have even restarted the server, but no
vail.any idea?

many thanks
REDDY

Good point, and I would have gotten to this after getting confirmation of replicas being set and of no held up replication messages.

You first need to see the hierarchy, and then the content. With no hierarchy, there'll be no content.

That's the way a reply works. Have you tried a Forward rule instead? I'd really like to see a rule that generates a completely new message based on a template, but that's not in the box.

forward works fine, but as u know it only forwards the message
ratherthan sending only an alert message.when i initially setup
a 'reply with' it didn't send a reply to the sender i think, if i
remember correctly.any idea?

I don't mean to be rude, but I think your memory is inaccurate.
