certificate issues

$
0
0

I am trying to remove a self-signed certificate so we can be certain we are only using the one we got from a trusted 3rd-party CA.  When I try to remove the self-signed one, I get this error below.

A special Rpc error occurs on server MAIL14: The internal transport certificate cannot be removed because that would
cause the Microsoft Exchange Transport service to stop. To replace the internal transport certificate, create a new
certificate. The new certificate will automatically become the internal transport certificate. You can then remove the
existing certificate.

But if I create a new self-signed certificate, just to remove the old one, then I am not getting anywhere - is there any way to change the "internal transport certificate" to use the one we got from the 3rd-party CA?  I already have the new certificate installed and I would rather not try to go through the process of generating a new cert request and all that.  But if that is the only way to fix these issues, then I suppose that is what I must do.

Many thanks,

Sam

New connector to internal Sharepoint server

$
0
0

Good afternoon, all!

I'm having some inconsistencies in sending mail to a list on an internal SharePoint 2013 server.  It seems that the mail flows from my Mailbox/CAS servers out to the Edge Transport servers, then the mail hangs there.  However, I have had one internal mail to this SharePoint list work.  I don't know precisely how the mail was received by the SharePoint server, but my theory is that the mail went over the LAN to the MB/CAS server at the datacenter where SharePoint lives, and was successfully delivered.

My question is about short-circuiting this by applying a new send connector.  This would be configured as a Custom connector with a mail domain of sharepoint.contoso.com and point directly to  the IP address of the SharePoint server.  The object of the game is to have any mail going to this SharePoint server sent directly to the IP address of that server.

Yes?  or is there a better/easier/more reliable way to handle this?  Or am I barking up the entirely wrong tree?

Thanks to all for looking!

Messsage Rate Limit on Receive Connector VS. Message Rate Limit on Mailbox (Throttling Policy)

$

Hello,

Looking for clarification on Message Rate Limits.

If I have a Message Rate Limit of 50 on a Receive Connector.

Then I have a throttling policy applied to a mailbox\user with a Message Rate Limit of Unlimited.

Does the Message Rate Limit of the Receive Connector still apply?

How to delay user not found messages

$

Hello,

I need to delay exchange 2013 messages that can't find the user.  We are a 2013/10  hybrid with 365.  It takes time for our identity management system to create an AD account and then DirSync it to 365 and then create the mailbox.  But we want messages to those 'almost valid' email addresses to be queued during the time the mailbox is being provisioned.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks,

Peter

Recieve Connector question (EDGE 2013) - unable to relay 550 5.7.1

$

Hi guys.
In EX2010-EDGE we had default RECIEVE connector which worked fine after we had added AnonymousUsers.
Now in EX2013-EDGE default RECIEVE connector is not working ok after we had added AnonymousUsers permission.

Are there any differences in default recieve connectors on EDGE2010 and EDGE2013?
We recieve error unable to relay 550 5.7.1).

Do you need to create "another" recieve connector on EDGE2013, and you didn't need to do this step on EDGE2010?

With best regards

Tweak spam filter on EXCHANGE 2013 EDGE

Hi guys.

What are the best practices for tweaking mail filter on Exchange 2013 EDGE?

In past we used Exchange 2010 EDGE with forefront, now we are upgradin it to EDGE2013.

We ran command:

Add-IPBlockListProvider-Name zen.spamhaus.org -LookupDomainzen.spamhaus.org -AnyMatch$true-Enabled$true

Do you recommend anything else to tweak on EXCHANGE EDGE2013?

FYI: We Will not use EOP, so we would like to get the most of the edge as spam filter as possible.

FROM field is being changed to the recipients email address on a REPLY

$

Question:

User A replies to an Email from User B. 

User A gets the email rejected and the error message

"You can't send a message on behalf of this user unless you have permission to do so."

The FORM field has been changed to User B and thus rejected.

I have examined the transaction logs and all appears that user A is trying to send an email on an account that he does not have sufficient rights. Next I check the message itself and sure enough the sender is User. Exchange appears to be behaving normally.

Users both are using Outlook 2010.

What could cause Outlook to change the field? Could it be an issue with the X400LegacyExchangeDN settings for the users?

Cache has been cleared and problem is intermittent. Not all emails replied to from A to B are rejected. Most go through. User doesn't have issue with other users.

Turning off cache resolves issue.

Outgoing e-mails are stuck in queue.

we are using exchange server 2013 and our exchange server receive and send email properly on local network, and receiving incoming emails from outside network but Outgoing e-mails stuck in queue with error {LED=441 4.4.1 error encountered while communicating with primary target IP Address:"421 4.4.2 connection dropped due to SocketError." attempted failover to alternate host, but that did not succeed. Either there are no alternate host.

Also created new send connector and did telnet to port 25 and uninstall Antivirus as well.

 

Unable to get TLS working on Exchange 2013 Receive Connector

$

I just finished setting up and implementing a new Exchange 2013 server.  It was a migration from SBS 2008.  Email works beautifully along with activesync and outlook anywhere.  The only problem I'm having is TLS will not work on the Internet facing receive connector and I cannot figure out why.  I use the AD CA to sign certificates and then distribute the root certificate to computers outside the domain.  The CA was migrated from SBS to a new DC with a different hostname, but I kept the CA name the same.  I can issue new certificates without error, and the CRL distribution points appear to be working.  I have confirmed the desired certificate is assigned to SMTP, and that the receive connector is set to use TLS.  Where can I look to figure out why Exchange is not offering TLS?

Exchange 2013 - RBL not working

$

Hi guys.

We are dealing with RBL not working.

We have zen.spamhaus.org as one of the RBL's (priority 1).

This IP is reported as spam/blacklisted

http://mxtoolbox.com/SuperToolX.aspx?action=blacklist%3a38.68.18.194&run=toolpage

Is this result ok or not?

we also take a look that we don't have any DNS issues. We had exactly the same behavior as on this post "https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/1252eb3d-949c-4cc3-a1d7-dc08f0bdd372/rbl-not-working-on-exchange-2013-edge-transport" but we have resolved this by changing forwarders on DNS and now it resolves just fine.

After that we have restarted transport service on Exchange 2013 EDGE.

Edge is on CU11.

Any other hints to check why RBL is not working ok?

With best regards

Hello,

I am relatively new to exchange, so bear with me here.  I need to temporarily suspend delivery of email to mailboxes while I update Symantec Mail Security on Exchange 2013 cu1.  Would it be easiest to just suspend my mailbox database in Queue Viewer?

Thanks,

We are constantly spammed by multiple and non-repeatable domains that all implement a generic SPF record as follows "v=spf1 a mx ptr ~all".

We would like to fail all SPF records that include the ~all prefix.

How could we enable this?

The SMTP availability of the Receive connector smtp inbound was low (38 percent) in the last 15 minutes.

We are using splunk to monitor exchange 2013. We keep getting these alerts "The SMTP availability of the Receive connector smtp inbound was low (38 percent) in the last 15 minutes."

I was wondering do these monitoring thresholds need to be modified within exchange? I don't want to turn the monitor off. I just need to tweak it so that it alerts when there is a real issue. And not a false positive.
