We are running W2K SP2. I want to find all users in a particular mailstore. However, when I try to filter by mailstore, via AD Users & Computers snap-in, no results are returned. For instance, I know from user object>Exchange General that mailstore I want is EXCHANGE1/StoreGroup1/MailStore1...

Steill do not have an answer to this problem and it is still happening. Can anyone help?

We are running MailSweeper for SMTP V4.3. We have a problem where messages to a single user are being quarantined as "Undetermined". If message is also copied to another user on same system, message is passed as "Clean". Analysis of quarantined mail shows that "The...

I have done some further reading on Recipient Policies and Mailbox Management and it seems that I really should be able to filter the policy to only work against the user or users I select. Is this a known Microsoft bug? John

This does not appear to be the case. If I remove the single user parameter and report on the server, e.g.: (&(&(& (mailnickname=*) (| (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(|(homeMDB=*)(msExchHomeServerName=*))) )))) Mailbox Manager report on all 2900 users on server, not the 63 it...

I have a recipient policy set up as follows: (&(&(&(& (mailnickname=*) (| (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(msExchHomeServerName=/o=Exchange Organisation/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Configuration/cn=Servers/cn=EXCHANGE4)) )))(objectCategory=user)(displayName=mccallum, john))) If...

In AD user object properties, there is an option, under Exchange General|Storage Limits, to warn users when their mailbox reaches a predetermined size. I have set a warning limit on several mailboxes, including my own, but the warning message never displays, even when limit is set at 1Kb. What...

We are running Exchange 2000, SP2. We have been looking at setting up policies to delete mail by age and have run various "Report only" tests to see what space would be freed up. Whilst we analyse, we have turned off all Mailbox Manager settings, i.e. "unticked" all the...

Can anyone recommend a third-party product for statistcal analysis of Exchange system? Features might include analysis of mailbox sizes, delivery times, volume of traffic between sender/recipient pairs etc. We are also looking for fault diagnosis software to allow us to quickly analyse and...

The problem manifests itself when the user tries to log onto Outlook and is unable to see any of their personal folders. The solution is to delete the users profile and recreate it again, then the user is able to log on and see everything OK. It's not only Winzip that this has happened with -...

We have several recipient policies set up and I wish to set up a new one to test how much space could be saved by deleting mail older than a certain age. To do this I intend setting up a policy to apply to all mailboxes and process mail older than, say, 6 months. I only want to produce a report...

We are having a problem on some PCs when installing new software where Outlook is already installed. After installing new software, user can no longer access Outlook via profile. We resolve this by deleting old profile and recreating it. This happened today on a PC where Winzip had been...

This may be the wrong forum but, if so, I'm sure someone will tell me. We are attempting to pass mail messages (with file attachments) received on a UNIX (AIX) box to our MS Exhange 2000 server. The messages are then accessed via MS Outlook 2000 and amended, then passed back (with file...

One of our Outlook 2000 users is receiving multiple (up to 200) read receipts from various internal users. Any ideas? Thanks. John

I keep getting the following error message when I track messages that are transferred through SMTP connector (I think!): "The object 'Warning:' can't be found in the directory. The object may have been deleted. The tracking history may be incorrect" Any ideas? Thanks. John
