We have a ESXI 6.5 host whose Time got out of sync. I was able to fix that by setting the NTP servers and manually adjusting the Primary Domain controller's date and time. However, Exchange 2010 is now not receiving emails from outside the network. Our barracuda shows them as being delivered but my test email hasn't arrived in the mailbox.

Sending email goes out no problem.

Is there something i need to check/reset or do i need to give it time to get past the time gap? It was about 1:15am tomorrow (5/14) before i got it fixed...maybe this is a bit optimistic?

any help/suggestions are appreciated!

Hi Folks:

   I have a client who wants to be able to sync her emails from three email accounts on her iPhone, iPad and a MacBook and possibly a Windows PC system. She wants to be able to retrieve emails from any device and if she deletes an email using one device she wants it to be deleted from all other devices.
 
     I believe that she is trying to accomplish this using "iCloud" - I am not familiar at all with iCloud and only minimally with Apple products as I deal with PC's and Android mostly and thus need some help with this matter.

 Two of the email addresses are from her own domain - i.e. me@mydomain.com while the third email address is from a major provider - i.e. me@sympatico.ca

We have set up the email accounts on each of the devices and they all can send and receive appropriately, noiw we need to figure out how to sync the devices.

I would note that the Windows PC device is the least critical and if it can't be handled easily we can abandon this one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Best regards, Dave Melnyk

Hello,

We would like to configure journaling with on premise Exchange 2016 with the following layout. I am looking for advice on how to get the journaling configured so that we can journal to different mailboxes like shown below.
The reason for us to configure it that way is due to the number of message that we are going to have to archive per year, we can't one journal mailbox per year, instead we are thinking to use the below. Can we configure journaling to use multiple journal mailboxes  across different DBs natively, porwershell or via 3rd party?  Or the only option is to journal to one mailbox at the time then close it and journal the next one?

Our New deployment of Exchange 2013 Anti-spam rejecting incoming emails with 550 5.7.1 Sender ID (PRA) Not Permitted.  The senders that are being blocked have correctly configured SPF records which I verified but once I enable the anti-spam module tons of legitimate mails are getting blocked and users are running after me with torches and pitchforks.  On top of having correct SPF records I also added their domain to the bypassed domains list and they are still getting blocked any ideas?

hi guys

We're currently in talks with having our emails encrypted when sent out. We're on O365. Now, we would need to define exactly who needs to send encrypted emails.

But as it stands, the only work around that is being used is configuring O365 so that when the subject line 'encryptme' is inserted, that the message is then encrypted. I find this too be far too manual and people will forget.

If we were to use something like a smarthost  like Symantec or Mimecast, would that encrypt the message and get rid of all of our woes?  We have Checkpoint 12200 firewalls in place, i wonder if they could be of any help.

Any recommendations are most welcome.

Thanks for helping

A few questions in relation to mailbox permissions and how to check when they have been amended:

1.      Are the only 2 ways to grant access to a mailbox (exchange server on-premise) via the server itself, and/or via the client, e.g.  outlook delegates.
2.      Are both actions (permissions changes via exchange & outlook) 'logged' centrally in exchange server logs as specific events that can be viewed, or would this need enabling. And are the logs which capture each type of change in different locations?
3.      If not enabled by default in exchange, how and where exactly can you check if it is enabled, or if not enabled, what specific option needs ticking to capture these events. Any sort of screenshots on where the find the options most welcome.
4.      What level of permissions in outlook are required to grant someone access to the mailbox, and is this a default permission to all mailbox owners?
5.      What level of permissions in exchange server are required to grant someone access to the mailbox, and what is the most efficient way of checking who has bene granted that level of access already.

In the past I had a Gmail/Yahoo account, nonetheless companies seem to collect more and more personal information without paying or telling the person each time they are taking it and rarely clearly state it's uses. I don't care if the government looks at my data, but am concerned about unforseen consequences; such as it being easier for a scammer to trick me cause they have more info on me or a criminal buying my data and knowing when I am away from a crowd so they can commit a crime etc.,

I was wondering if getting a web domain through a service like 'godaddy' and forming my own email would be the best way to prevent 3rd party data collection?

Hello, I'm trying create a new send connector in my exchange lab environment however I get a 451 4.4.0 error message before it even reaches my smarthost account.  I've tried reviewing the trusted certificate and recreating the send connector via the shell instead of gui but both gives me the  same error.  The only way my emails goes out is if I re-enable the original send connector with the original exchange server in it, if I keep only the new exchange server in the original send connector it doesn't work, so I've at least narrowed it down to the new server I just built.  I've reviewed both send connectors too to see what is different and I can't find anything.

The setup is two exchange 2010 servers both on windows 2008r2.  My lab practice is to migrate to a rebuilt exchange 2010 and decommission the old one.  I've successfully migrated all mailboxes but trying to get only the new exchange 2010 server to send successfully to my smarthost isn't working so I can't continue to decom the old.  Any ideas what else I should try?

Verbose logs keeps showing my this as well:
"UntrustedRoot,Chain validation status"

Message Tracking logs Error Message:
"The last attempt to send the message was at 4/21/2019 11:50:12 AM (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) and generated the error '451 4.4.0 Primary target IP address responded with: "454 4.7.5 Certificate validation failure." Attempted failover to alternate host, but that did not succeed. Either there are no alternate hosts,…

Autodiscover is not working for Exchange 2013 and I need it to so I can migrate the mailboxes to O365. OWA is working, however. I cannot create the endpoint connection in Office365. I cannot even setup Outlook offsite/onsite to connect to a mailbox. Somehow their mailboxes are still working for those that are currently setup.

I am running Windows 10, and using Outlook to send emails through my Gmail account.   Most of the time everything works fine, but one of my frequent contacts (also a Gmail account) doesn't get my attachments or graphics inserted into the body of the email.  When I send an attachment, she just gets an attachment named winmail.dat.   Is there something I can do to fix this?

Thanks,

Phil
