I have been trying to setup TLS on exchange 2010 using a public certificate. but when I perform a TLS check I get an error because of the exchange self-signed certificate.

Please find result of the test below:

SMIME for email security: Error- Microsoft outlook cannot sign or encrypt this message because the certificate is not valid

I have an issue trying to encrypt an email message and sending it to someone. The error which i'm facing is "Microsoft outlook cannot sign or encrypt this message because the certificate is not valid". I've never used this SMIME feature of outlook. Referred few articles and blogs but couldn't get any clue. I've managed to get the user certificate for myself from Comodo which is for free use. Please let me know how to understand and use this feature as i'm new to it. Does the server has to do anything in this process related to SMIME settings..

Hi, We have a problem with a migrated installation of Exchange Server 2013

If I send an email from Gmail for example to user1@contoso.com, user2@contoso.com, user3@contoso.com and for example user2 doesn´t exists in Exchange, the in Gmail I receive and delivery failed with failed 3 destinations users. What´s append?

Internally, if I send an email to one valid user and one unkown user, the the valid user receive my email, and I receive a delivery failed report only for the user unknown. It´s a normal behairvour? Can I change that? I need to recieve emails from internet always, and if one user is unkown I hope the email is not rejected for all de destination recipients.

Many thanks!

Exchange 2010 with Forefront, can't receive large attachments from outside ONLY.

I am able to send and receive large files internally now. Also I am able to send large files to the outside. But I can't receive anything larger then defaulted 10mb. My Environment is 2 Edge boxes, 2 cas HT boxes, 2 mx DB boxes.

I was asked to increase the size of the emails my organization can receive, I went ahead and adjusted the following:

EDGE
1. Receive and Send connectors, set to 40mb.
2. Forefront -->Advanced Options--> Threshold Levels--> all max sized are at 50mb.
CASHT
1. Organization Configuration--> Hub Transport -->Send Connectors and GLOBAL SETTINGS
2. Server Configuration--> HUB Transport--> all the connectors
3. Recipient Configuration--> Mailbox --> users. 

All sizes are set to 40mg!

I am able to send large files (24354K), but  not able to receive

Unable to receive Emails from a Hotmail Sender.

I'm new to the Exchange servers here, but out of nowhere we can no longer receive emails sent from a "@hotmail" email account.  Nothing has changed between today and yesterday besides the date.
Does anybody have any insight into this that could help?
I should also note that we have Exchange 2010, not 2013.

Creating Exchange 2013 receive connectors for Internal Simple SMTP Devices e.g. Scanners

$
0
0

Like any organisation, I have a number of devices ranging from routers to switches, printers to multifunction centers, and some applications/scripts that send email via SMTP.

Some devices have no authentication mechanism in their software, while others offer windows credentials, and some support TLS.  I have been doing quite a bit of research on this and some suggestions either don't work, or are ill advised.  On one MS forum the "Moderator" confessed they had no idea how or if it could be done.

So what is the best way, and can it be provided as a step by step method.  I've set them up in the past with since Exchange 5.5, 2000, 2003, 2007, 2010 but cant crack it in 2013.  Judging by the number of hits on topics around this I am not in the minority.

I manage many sites that have the same types of devices making migration to Exchange 2013 a risk - so is it possible at all with Exchange 2013 - or do we exercise our downgrade rights to 2010 so that our major devices like the Multifunction centres can work in the way intended.?

To date I have tested Receive Connectors with the following properties

  • Custom Connector
  • tried both Hub and Frontend transport roles
  • With no Security, Basic Security, TLS Security (for those devices that supported it)
  • Permission group = anonymous
  • Remote Network settings = All Internal IP Addresses
  • Left Adapter bindings as defaults (all avail IPV4)

How do I tell my hosting company to send queued emails to our Exchange server 2003

Hello,

Does anybody know how to tell our hosting server email to send emails to our SBS 2003/Exchange server 2003?

We have a SMTP Virtual Server configured and a SmallBusiness SMTP Connector configured.

We can send and receive internal emails to exchange accounts.

We can send external emails from exchange accounts.

We cannot receive external emails through exchange.

Thanks,
Tony

Dear

We have 2 x Exchange 2003 (FE & BE), during Exchange 2003/2010 mail flow issue, we delete then recreate send connector (to Smart host->Internet) and the (Ex2k3/Ex2k10-HT) servers routing group connectors

After that all mail flow working fine (between 2k3 & 2k10/ and outside/inside). Only we start getting Event logs on FE and BE with the below details :

When I gave the Anonymous SendAs/ReceiveAs permission it stop EventID 9297 and log event 9322, so i revert back. We don't have name resolution issue or communication issue between BE/FE servers

Folders deleted from Inbox does not get purged from Deleted Item folder even if the retention policies are in place and getting applied

Hi There,

I've a retention policy in my organization for purging the items from deleted items folder after 3 days of getting deleted from the inbox. The policy is also working fine for the emails which are being deleted from the inbox. But when it comes to deleting a folder from the inbox, eventhough the retention policy gets applied the folder still remains in the deleted items folder but all the emails inside it gets purged normally.

Can some one please let me know if this is the default behaviour of how the MRM works or is this somekind of a bug. Also please let me know if there are any fix to this issue such that the folder should also get purged along with the mails as per the MRM policy.

Exchange 2013 Moderated Lists

$
0
0

We have upgraded from 2007 to 2013 and we are planning on getting rid of our old list server to use Exchange's fancy new moderated distribution lists.  To my dismay, it won't let you add smtp accounts, thus, I have to create an AD object for every member of our lists.  The problem has come about giving access to users outside of our organization the ability to email the list.

If I set delivery management to the default, "Only members inside my organization" the following occurs: People in my organization are moderated, people outside get a NDR.

If I set delivery management to the other option, "Senders inside and outside my organization", the following occurs: People in my organization are moderated, people outside are not, and email goes through to the entire list.

How can I set this up so that inside and outside people get moderated.  This seems poorly implemented, or maybe it is just not working properly.

When requesting an SSL certificate from exchange 2013 certificate generator. what format should the domain be in for the internal outlook connection and the external access, if my domain looks like these examples. "server.domain.local" and our domain name for emails is "email@anotherdomain.co.uk" do you have to put the reqeust in the format of  "server.anotherdomain.co.uk" or just "anotherdomain.co.uk"

If we deploy Exchange 2013 in co-exist envt with Exch 2007 and have to shut down Exch 2013 for some maintenance / update, does Ex-2007 takes care of the mail flow for the users who are still on Ex-2007 and not migrated over to Ex-2013?

I know there won't be any issue for outgoing email. I am not sure for incoming emails. Any suggestion?

Thanks.

And it is hit and miss. you can send an out side email fromme@hotmail.com once, maybe twice and you might get a address rejected. I have ran all updates, Disable the fire wall, ran best pratic, MX recoreds are right, I have even delted MX recoreds and remade them. I get no other errors and like I have said it is hit and miss. some times they come threw other times it wont. any thoughts on what I shouls look at?

ERROR 5.7.1 unable to relay when setting up an exchange server to take over from hosted mail

$
0
0

Ill first outline the situation,

We have a client that wanted to move his hosted mail to his new exchange server.

So we setup everything and outgoing mails work fine (i can test them no problem)

What i can't get around to is getting a test mail through telnet to drop an internet mail to a local account.

things i checked:

1) domain is in accepted domains list

2) in default mail policy the account@domain.com is allowed

3) administrator@domain.com is allowed email address for that user and is assigned to him as the primary email address

the default frontend connector allows anonymous connections

I am probably overlooking something stupid, possibly i cant get the mails to be accepted until the DNS record is moved from the current mail hosting to the new exchange public ip address?

Other option is a certificate issue but that shouldnt block anonymous mails to arrive?



its in dutch but i suppose most of the information is just readable like this

So if anyone can pitch an idea (or confirm it is indeed because of the public dns record still pointing to current mailhosting.)

Regards

Virtual Exchange 2013 CU1 raises Receive(SocketError) in SMTP log

$
0
0
Hi community!

One week ago, we installed on a Windows Hyper-V 2012 core server an Exchange 2013 CU1 on a Windows Server 2012 virtual machine. On our LAN, we have a Windows Server 2008 R2 web server, which is sending emails to customers over the Exchange 2013.

To make this relay function on the Exchange 2013 to work, we created an internal frontend relay receive connector. Our experience last week was, that this connector stops working for about 5 to 30 minutes whenever it would like to. The sender web server got"service not available" errors. On a thread in the internet we found the solution to deactivate the Microsoft antispam agent of the Exchange 2013 and replaced it by Symantec Mailsecurity for Exchange 7.0.1.

But today, 12 hours after the installation of the workaround, some smtp messages where not sent (but most of the mails where sent). We found in the relay connectors receive log, that he accepted the failed message for sending (250 2.6.0 <baab5dde-0b49-420f-97ba-907466047b05@servername.domain.lokal> [InternalId=734439407867] Queued mail for delivery), but instead of waiting for the senders QUIT-command, the relay connector raises the error "Remote(SocketError)".

We didn't find any other errors with reference to this behavour.

There is only one thing more: last week we recognized problems with the outlook connections to the new Exchange server. The connection goes on- and offline multiple times in short time intervalls. We switched off the default configured "Receive Side Scaling" on the Windows Server 2012 virtual machines NIC, as suggested on the internet for Exchange 2013, running on hyper-v-hosts. Could this be responsible for the socket errors on SMTP-communication?

Hope my English is good enough to give a good explanation of the problem.

Best regard,
Peter
