Environment Update: Exchange 2013 --> ADFS  --> Sophos Firewall ---> Internet


Here i am trying to integrate Exchange 2013 with ADFS, i followed the below article but somehow i failed complete the configuration

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn635116(v=exchg.150).aspx#party

Created a relying party trust and custom claim rules for Outlook Web App and EAC on ADFS, just as the way explained in the article

In this setup, I am not using WAP in between Firewall and ADFS( i know this is not recommended but still this environment created for testing)


Configured Exchange 2013 to use AD FS authentication

$uris = @(" https://mail.contoso.com/owa/","https://mail.contoso.com/ecp/")
Set-OrganizationConfig -AdfsIssuer "https://adfs.contoso.com/adfs/ls/" -AdfsAudienceUris $uris -AdfsSignCertificateThumbprint "88970C64278A15D642934DC2961D9CCA5E28DA6B"

I am facing issue while procceding the below step

Enabling AD FS authentication on the OWA and ECP virtual directories

Get-EcpVirtualDirectory | Set-EcpVirtualDirectory -AdfsAuthentication $true -BasicAuthentication $false -DigestAuthentication $false -FormsAuthentication $false -WindowsAuthentication $false

I am able to enabled ADFS Authentication for ECP directory but when I try to enabled ADFS Authentication for OWA it fails with the below error message 

Please assist


Auto Archive files not cached locally

We are currently using Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2013.

We have only 30days of cached emails on the client machines, implemented as we were getting a performance issue with the network.

We now have an issue where people using the autoarchive have it set to inexcess of 30 days, it won't archive, as nothing fits the criteria.

Is there anything we can do to get it archiving from the network exchange server, as opposed to the local client?

Thanks

New user email - Recreated: 550 Error

$

0

Hi,

We have an issue where a new users email was created, deleted and recreated. For some internal users it works because they never emailed her but other had a bad cached copy of her email it seemed.

Diagnostic information for administrators:

Generating server: ERA-EX1.server.net

IMCEAEX-_o=EMMS_ou=Exchange+20Administrative+20Group+20+28FYDIBOHF23SPDLT+29_cn=Recipients_cn=233bfde1c7c947dea874b9070b1653cc-Melissa+20Burciaga@server.net Remote Server returned '550 5.1.1 RESOLVER.ADR.ExRecipNotFound; not found'

However, some users are still having the issue after we cleared their cache in Outlook.  

From the server I ran a couple shell commands to update the address book and some users still get a bounceback.

Get-AddressList | Update-AddressList

Get-GlobalAddressList | Update-GlobalAddressList

Are there any commands I'm missing that would force an update on the database so that the SID of the first email would be cleared and users emailing her going forward get the correct email address?

Any help or even opinions on the issue would be appreciated.

Critical Event - 2158 "Event 64 (Search) of severity 'Critical' occurred 3 more time(s)

Hey all. Really weird issue and google isn't being very helpful here. I am occasionally getting "Event 64 (Search) of severity 'Critical' occurred 3 more time(s) and was suppressed in the event log" with EventID 2158. If I filter to show event 64, i get no results. If I run a Get-Serverhealth | where{$_.AlertValue -eq "Unhealthy"} there are no health components in unhealthy status. 

I am not seeing any way of tracking down what this is even alerting about, let alone how to fix it. the only thingI have seen through googling is "try installing the latest CU" i am already on CU 12 and am not ready to upgrade everything to CU 13 for a little while yet. Has anyone seen this and can tell me what this is and how to fix?

Thank you!



Dynamic Distribution Group for Manager including wildcard

$

0

I am trying to create a dynamic distribution group for all users under a specific manager based purely on his name, not his dn.  For instance, I can create one with the following command

new-dynamicdistribution list -name "Bobs Employees" -RecipientFilter {manager -eq 'CN=Bob Smith,OU=Corp,DC=contoso,DC=com'}

But I can't create one one for anyone who has a Manager attribute with the words "Bob Smith" or even "Smith"

The -like condition does not work for this field as I have tried the following and many others.

new-dynamicdistribution list -name "Bobs Employees" -RecipientFilter {manager -like '*Smith*'}

Hell, I can't even get it to work with a simple get-user function like

get-user -filter {Manager -like '*Bob*'} or get-user -filter {manager -like 'cn=bob*'}

Any help out there would be awesome!!!

How outlook or exchange forms Date header in email

$

Hi.

We have test environment showing at picture above.

1 test. UserA sends email to userB, he sees that email contains Date header with offset (according to userA timezone I suppose): Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2018 17:31:07 +0300
2 test. UserA or userB sends email to SMTP1 or SMTP2 (email to domain the hold) they receive email with Date header in UTC format: Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2018 12:32:22 +0000
3 test. SMTP1 sends email to SMTP2 via exchange: SMTP1->EXCHANGE mail box with forwarding->SMTP2. SMTP2 server receives email with Date header which was originally generated by SMTP1 in SMTP transaction: Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2018 17:31:07 +0300
All servers and client OS have correct locale and timezones configured as userA and userB mailboxes.

I mean Date header explained here https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822#section-3.6.1

My question is how date header actually formed when outlook construct email? Whose timezone it uses?
Microsoft doesn't have docs about this process. Internet doesn't have much info about this question only fragmentary pieces.
Hoped to find any official MS info about this.

AttachmentTableTotalSize Increasing in Size for Journaling Mailbox Account

I've come across a weird instance where the journaling account we use to archive our email offsite has ballooned up the database but when you look at the mailbox statistics the mailbox size is normal but the AttachmentTableTotalSize is gigantic.  We have the mailbox policy set to purge Deleted Items every day but it doesn't seem to be clearing out attachments somehow.  I've tried googling what exactly the AttachmentTableTotalSize is but the results seem pretty limited.  Currently the only way I have been able to purge the mailbox is to migrate it do a different database and then migrate it back.  I'm running Exchange 2013 CU 20 and we first noticed the behavior back in CU 19.  I'm wondering if anyone else has come across this and has a better solution than just migrating the mailbox back and forth between databases.

Is the TotalDeletedItemSize included in TotalItemSize or do you have to add the two together to get the True size of the mailbox?

Blocking out calendar dates and OO messages

$

So my work changed their schedule to a 9/80 schedule. Where we have every other Friday off. 

Is there a way in Exchange to prevent user calendars and meeting room calendar from booking meeting and events?

Also, with that... they want OO messages published every other Friday. I tried to use an app called, CodeTwo Out of Office Manager but I'm getting errors with it. Code doesn't provide support on their freeware either.

How have you guys handled this?

How to revert ExchangeGuid

$
0
0

Hi all,

Long story short, our client has Exchange on prem and is using O365 for archiving only. When trying to get a user's account to attach to the archive while working with O365 support, they ended up changing the mailbox's ExchangeGuid to the same as the ArchiveGuid. Now when the end user opens Outlook, she's dropped directly into her archive instead of her on-prem mailbox. As you might imagine, that's causing all sorts of trouble.

I've seen references to using Set-RemoteMailbox, but this doesn't work since it's not a remote mailbox for O365, it's on-prem only. I verified this with other mailboxes in our own environment as well. And Set-Mailbox doesn't have a switch for -ExchangeGuid.

Any thoughts on what else should be done to get this back to normal, so her ExchangeGuid matches the on-prem mailbox again?

External Email Relay

$

Hi,

Running Exchane 2013.

So we have internal email relaying working (network equipment bouncing of our exchange server) but we have a software product being hosted outside of our organization that needs to relay off our exchange server.  What are the proper steps for this?  All I can find is anonymous relaying.  I am guessing, they are going to need a domain account for this work.  Would like to get some best practice steps if possible.

TIA
