I currently host exchange 2003 and we are in the process of building up an exchange 2007 solution. Anybody have any links or whitepapers on the setup? I am stumbling on some permission issues - particluarly with the address lists - with the new exchange server roles.

i have a domain with enom.
the nameservers point to my server.
i now want to use enoms hosted exchange service for this domain, but retain the website on my webspace.
how would this work, using my own webspace and enoms hosted exchange?
do enom take care of it all for you?
Anyone know of a hosted exchange provider that also provides shared web hosting?
The shared hosting plan can be small - its for a low traffic site.
Windows Questions
I WILL be install WS2003 EE R2 on a dedicated server.
However, I will make this into a DC/AD so I can install Exchange and serve the system as a Webserver. All that's fine
But the question during the creation of an DC props up.
I have 2 domains. I will also have 2 dedicated IP's.
Now, lets say I have domains www.aaa.com and www.bbb.com
1) Would I Install and configure DNS on this server? Remember, this is a dedicated server located in a datacenter somewhere with their infrastructure in place.
2) Would I need to configure anything in the LAN settings? Should I just leave everything to automatically detect IP and DNS Servers? (No other computer will be joining this domain)
anything else I should be aware of?
ok, now I have those domain names, I would need to update the DNS Records from the web hoster right? So I would need to update the NS records (The place I purchased the domain from)
Exchange
Now, since I will be creating several user accounts here, these user accounts will be for email addresses.
1) Is it possible to have 2 domains on this 1 exchange server? I'm guessing not? (I dont have knowledge about exchange)
2) What about configuring an exchange server? How would I say create an email address like "abc@aaa.com"? So this email account would then be able to send/recieve email?
Just today we started having some problems with our exchange server...everything was working fine until around 10:00 A.M this morning.
We've started getting sporadic reject messages from people that we have always been able to email in the past.
These are a few of the NDR's we've received.

Theres more as well, but that pretty much sums up the main issues really....as I said, these were working fine for the last year, until today. No changes have been made on our exchange server.
We have GFI Mail essentials installed with SPF records turned on.
We have reverse dns setup through Time Warner Telecom for our IP.
I can send email to my hotmail address, but yahoo rejects it.
I've checked dnsstuff.com and dnsreport.com and we're not on any blacklists.
I'm not exactly sure where else to look.
These mail servers rejecting our email are not from just 1 ISP or 1 mail server, these are from companies in different states/countries.
I have exchange 2003 installed but also want to use POP3. Is this possible?
If so, how can I create the POP3 email accounts? How do I configure them?
I've seen various companies offering Microsoft Exchange hosting but I'm not sure if this is what I need to go with or not. Let me explain what I'm wanting to do and maybe someone can give me a yay or nay on it. I have a desktop and a laptop running Outlook that I would like to be able to sync together with a web-based server. I also have a Treo 750 cell phone that I want to have my calendar and tasks synced as well with the web-based server.
For example: I add an appointment on my desktop computer and it syncs with the web server. When the web server gets it, it syncs to my cell phone via ActiveSync. Right now I'm using the free version of Mail2Web which doesn't support Outlook syncing. (I have to manually enter the data on the website interface and then it will sync via Activesync to my phone.) They do have a paid version starting at $11.95/mo that will supposedly do what I'm wanting to do with Outlook, but I'm not sure if this is overkill for what I need or not. Again I don't really need to sync email, just my calendar and tasks.
So do I need a full blown exchange hosting provider or is there some software (other than Exchange) that I can install on my Windows VPS that will do what I'm looking to do?
What's the best way to move exchange? Tried exmerge but it's bad, i.e. loss ratio. Tried export / import but not good with 50+ boxes, too slow that way.
What's the best way to move exchange from server to server (different domains / networks)
What would be the best way to replicate two exchange servers across a WAN? I would like to run exchange but in two different physical locations for redundancy and backup purposes, to ensure if one goes down, the other is right there. Is there any good commercial solutions?
View 0 Replies View RelatedIm looking to find UK Hosted Exchange providers.
NOTE: Please dont refer resellers. Im looking for big companies that own their datacenter and manage their own exchange servers.
Something like intermedia, but with servers located in UK.
I have a slight issue that some of my emails are being converted to a htm file and attached to the email. I am using exchange server and outlook.
For example if I received an email and it was converted into a htm file and the body of the email was deleted so only the attachment existed which included the email.
There is no trend to this as sometimes it happens and on other occasions it doesn’t.
Besides this when I receive a read receipt many of these are converted to a normal email. I know this can happen from the senders side but I know for sure that some of the read receipts received should include outlooks read receipt icon although this is not happening. Is this something to do with exchange or my outlook installation.
does anyone have a fix for the Exchange 2007 kerberos issue when connecting Kayako to Exchange via pop3 or imap?
kayako says:
Quote:
The reason for the error you are getting is a bug in MS Exchange 2007. The exact reason is, Exchange server falsely advertises that it support Kerberos authentication even when it is configured not to use Kerberos. This causes the fetch request to fail from PHP as PHP-imap always tries to use Kerberos first.
The workaround to this issue is either to use a different mail server or compile PHP without Kerberos support(in that case it will simply ignore Exchange's erroneous behavior regarding Kerberos).
If possible you may setup a secondary mail server (Non exchange 2007) and forward the required emails there and configure help desk to fetch the emails from the secondary email server(non-exchange 2007) instead of your Exchange server 2007.
i have Server 2008 X64 but its blocking my from installing exchange server 2003 and 2008. either one i try i get the error saying it's not compatible.
i find this extremely weird? is their anyway around this?
ive set up Exchange 2007 on WS2008. I have a domain "fasterfasterfaster.net"
its nameservers are changed correctly and is pointing to the right IP address including the @ and CNAME records.
the mx record is set to mail.fasterfasterfaster.net
my DC is called "faster.local"
in the org configuration > hub transport, I have accepted domains:
fasterfasterfaster.net Authoritative
mail.fasterfasterfaster.net Authoritative
faster.local Authoritative
also in the org config, there is an internet send connector. its FQDN is mail.fasterfasterfaster.net.
for the Server config > hub transport:
Client is enabled with the FQDN: mail.fasterfasterfaster.net and permission groups enabled:
Anonymous, exchange users, exchange servers and legacy exchange servers
the Default is enabled with its FQDN to machineName.faster.local and same permission groups as above.
problem is, I am unable to recieve any emails (no bouncebacks)
And when I send email from an exchange account, the recipient recieves it from account@faster.local
I have a client with SBS 2003 and exchange. They had a bad HDD (it held the exchange .edb and .stm files).
I installed the new HDD, configured Exchange to use the new HDD for the files but I did not mount it when it was done because I was in a rush.
I came back into their office first thing in the morning and mounted the volume. However, they did not get any emails during the night.
My question is: The emails that were sent to them, are they gone forever? Did they get bounced back to their senders? If not, can they be recovered?
I have an exchange 2003 server. You can access OWA via the browser by using the IP address of the line the server sits on.
How do I go about converting this IP address into a domain so exchange server 2003 is accessible via [url]or [url]
I'm currently with 1and1 - obviously they suck - no need to belabor that here. I've been resisting a hosting switch, but the outages are more and more frequent, and my website is my livlihood. Need recommendations for web/MySql hosting and also hosting for a single Exchange account. Does not have to be the same company. Price is not a huge issue - I'm willing to pay for quality. Requirements are basic; about 3-5 GB of file storage, SQL 4 and 5, linux server. Shared server is fine. Any recommendations? Don't really trust the "review" sites.
Some kind of moving assistance/support would be GREAT. I've managed to muddle through and set all this stuff up over the years, but am not at all confident of my ability to move it all without screwing up. Includes 3 active databases, several sites, SSL cert (currently purchased through 1&1 but it looks like they farmed it out to geotrust), and exchange mailbox.
This has been a topic that has been slowly developing without too much in the way of discussion. Exchange has been the killer email solution now for years - it's integration with Outlook, its sleek webmail and support for mobile devices and push email is almost unbeatable. THe only problem is your stuck in a windows environment and have killer licensing costs associated with the priveledge of using it.
We run a web hosting service down here in New Zealand where the market isn't quite as cut throat as in places like the US and that is reflected in prices. Hosted exchange accounts sit around $30NZ per month per email inbox, quite high considering our median income is around $30,000NZ.
I think this has priced the service out of the rich of small/medium sized businesses and as a result many people here don't know of or use the features which could radically improve their email experience.
<< removed >> after days of searching I came across Smartermail and its support for syncml. << removed >>
From what I see, it seems that the collaboration and integration exchange has such as in calendar/contacts/tasks is becoming standardized accross mail servers.
Do people think that in the future these features will become a standardized feature of most mail servers?
Anyone having difficulties getting this to work? Can't seem to get mail to sync even after the config says everything should be working.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi was pinged a few times asking why dont we support unlimited Exchange Mailbox where as lots of providers do.
I took the question to our Product team and here is what they shared with me, which i thought to extend to my friends here...
1. The primary reason for not having an unlimited mailbox size is the possibility of runaway mailbox growth. There are several scenarios, such as a Denial of Service attack, an auto-reply rule storm, a runaway automated process, or some other unforeseen event that can generate hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of email addresses to a single mailbox (or group of mailboxes), having it grow to astronomical proportions (100’s of gigabytes) in a very short time. We have seen this happen multiple times that we come in to help clean up. A runaway email box (or boxes) can quickly and easily expand to consume all of the available storage and resources of the mailbox server, and severely cripple availability for all other users of the system. (This impacts ALL customers on the hosted environment)
2. Secondarily, if we allow unlimited mailbox growth and the customer is charged for storage, this can result in an unexpectedly large bill.
3. Some providers who claim to offer “unlimited” mailbox size are actually offering an “arbitrary maximum” mailbox size. If you dig into their SLAs they state that there is a “functional limit”, which they do not define, and they also state that mailboxes should not be used as archives, which implies that if/when users reach this undefined functional limit, older items are the ones that get deleted/purged. So, none of our competitors actually offer unlimited mailboxes, just undefined, arbitrary mailbox limits.
4. As an Exchange mailbox gets larger, it becomes more and more difficult for a user to manage and use. This issue applies regardless of server configurations or resources – it is a matter of the complexity of having the Outlook client manage multiple gigabytes of mailbox storage and the corresponding tens or hundreds of thousands of individual messages.
Is it possible to install Exchange 2003 on a GoDaddy Windows 2003 Enterprise VPS?
View 6 Replies View Relatedcan someone here help me setup/configure exchange server? I really have no idea but interested in doing so on my dedicated server.

I take it I need to make the machine into a domain?
I have 2 IP Addresses assigned to me. and I have 2 domains, so I'm thinking about configuring each domain for an IP Address.
I would ideally like to have email addresses for both domains but going to test it on 1 domain first before proceeding onwards.
It would be appreciated if someone could just jot down on how to go about setting up Exchange, how to configure it...and pretty much it. I will be using Exchange 2003 Enterprise
Can anyone recommend a host that specializes in reliable Microsoft Exchange e-mail hosting that includes the web client?
Or optionally, a business that specalizes in reliable e-mail hosting along with collaborative web features.
Or finally, can anyone recommend a collaboration web software that could be installed on a UNIX/Linux server that already offers IMAP?
Didn't really see a forum that this question would fit in, so figured I'd put it in the forum with the experts.
