Create a local .pst file and move all their stuff to it out of exchange mail box. Whack the mailbox off the exchange server and recreate it from scratch. Recopy all contacts, mail etc etc back to box. Storm

Do you have an idea how your going to migrate the data from the information store to this imail system? Does imail have exchange import tools? Can imail read in PST files to new user mail boxes? IF not then it would seem you have to take each users mail out to a PST file and then keep your...

It should be pretty painless to mirror the settings over from every tab in the connector and then start it. The biggest deal is obviously to make sure that whatever the mail domain name is, That it resolves to the address of the new server. Taking the old servers IP address and assigning it to...

Our Isp automatically quenes all the mail for our domains so that if I shut down the server, it just holds the mail until the server or IMC is back online. I have never lost any mail by shutting down the IMC for hours at a time. Storm

nope. I have a feeling it might be that IE is sometimes spawning a new process and that new session is not authenticated. Still MS should find a fix for this. It seems to happen in combination with how many IE windows I have open or how long I have been booted up - I am just guessing really. Storm

Okay I instituted the white list and Pop3 works just fine as long as under relay you allow authenticated users. Thanks guys! Storm

In looking at the interface I notice there is a NAME field as well as an address field. What is the effect of using the name field? If someone has a person in their address book from my company but the name is different, is it going to block them? Example DADDY -vs- JOHN SMITH as the Display...

This will not block valid authenticated POP3 users from sending mail through our server to people outside will it? I tried putting this white list on my firewall and none of our pop3 people could send e-mails outside anymore. Storm

>> I would like to set up Xwall to do this invalid recipient blocking. What do I need to do to turn it on? Is it on by default? Still not clear on how to make it work Storm

cmeagan656 Not only can you configure it to just drop emails for invalid recipients, you can configure it to strip the delivery receipt and read receipt flags for all emails, which is something Exchange 5.5 can't do. >> I would like to set up Xwall to do this invalid recipient blocking. What...

MAPI/VAPI combination no problems here. I did have to turn off the real time virus scanner in the system tray as it was conflicting with the other scanning the system does on e-mail.

Did you look at the default "internet user account" that IIS sets up and compare that accounts security policies with the security policy of your ftpuser? What about LOG ON LOCALLY is that an option?

IN order for someone to get on your server via IIS (and therefore FTP) they need to have a couple of basic rights. LOG ON LOCALLY and ACCESS THIS COMPUTER FROM NETWORK. This is on NT 4 sp6 so your mileage may vary. In NT 4 I created a FTP Users group and give them those privledges and then added...

Okay so you are connecting to the internet with a modem. That means you have to put the firewall on the machine that connects with the modem and it has to be software based. I would say zone alarm is fine just don't use Black Ice Defender as it is not a reputable firewall. I have used Norton...

All firewalls are not created equal what can you afford? How are you connecting to the internet? Hardware firewalls can be very nice. As a start are you using network address translation on your router? Storm
