In Outlook? A simple drag and drop works from MB to PF (yes, moving).
PF to PF is a copy operation unless you right click-drag and select
move.
Not sure of a way to change that behaviour in Outlook. Perhaps an
Outlook group might be able to suggest something.

Take a look at:

and then see the articles on the client side. I will assume the server

It would be good, if you do need more help, if you could elaborate on
what you're troubleshooting, and how.

Stop user to send email

Posted: 15 Feb 2007 07:14 AM PST

Problem with such solution is you need to hava a mailbox to see a PF right?
And if you have a mailbox you can send mail. This should not be possible.

Help - Outlook 2003 removed Exchange folder

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 01:45 PM PST

I located the folder. During the installation (or first connection) it had
been moved from the Exchange Server mailbox to my HD and saved as a .pst
file in a different location than Outlook 2003 was looking.

Ex2007 Header Info Leakage - somewhat urgent

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 01:01 PM PST

You will need to run the outbound mail through a 3rd party gateway or
firewall that will cleanup the internal headers. I have had security people
raise this issue with me before. I don't think it is too big of a deal, but
I do see their point. The less you reveal about your internal network, the
better off you are.

I am not aware of any software that will cleanup the headers, but I think
CheckPoint has some firewall software that will do it. No version of
Exchange does this. I suspect they don't because it breaks RFC compliance
or something.

Installing Exchange 2003 Server Standard Edition alongside ISA Ser

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 12:38 PM PST

That is how they got in so much trouble during the Win98/Win2000 days when
"giving the customer what they want" was considered more important than what was
"more secure" and the proper way to do something.

Old habits die hard I guess.

Restoring Reminders

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 09:41 AM PST

Well, I'm no Outlook expert so I think it best if you go into the
Outlook group and ask this question. Make sure you tell them that one
of the Exchange boys pointed you at the Outlook switch website and
which ones you had a punt at and that they didn't do you any good.
Sorry I couldn't help you all the way.

Email Delivery location?

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 05:38 AM PST

Thanks for checking. It is not that much of an issue to make it worth
running against all workstations. Just wanted to get backup the explain why
a remote mailbox when viewed from a secondary computer would have email show
in the inbox for a second or two and then dis appear. I figured it was due
to them forwarding or having another instance of outlook open that was
delivering to a PST. Again though, thanks for chcking and letting me know!!

OAB - Access Denied

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 02:53 AM PST

Don't worry about the last test, you don't have the version for web
distribution. You can run Test Email-Auto configuration from outlook and get
the OAB url and append /oab.xml to the end of it to see if you can get to
your CAS server (this will take you to your iis share).

You didnt happen to change the permissons on your IIS server or file share ?

You also have to remember that users in OWA look at the gal differently than
users that use Outlook. OWA used OU based querying over the gal.

Yes I do have users. I thought it would be easy to install exchange with

Exchange server setup log: I do have a back up. What do you think will be
easier?

Exchange Server Lost

Posted: 11 Feb 2007 05:07 PM PST

I agree for the most part but we must also consider that the admin has
concluded that the manager is incorrect in this decision. This clearly puts
the initiative on the admin to either correct this error or to live with the
consequences.

Another way to address this problem may to consider the training aspect.
I'm assuming that the the Desktop team are MCP/MCSA qualified or equivalent
and that the Server team are MCSE/MCSE+Messaging qualified. This could be
used as a lever to convince the managers that all but the most superficial
(creating accounts and managing distro group ownership) should remain with
the Server team. The managers wins a partial victory by getting at least
part of what he/she/they want and the Server team sheds the tedious part of
managing the Exchange farm while remaining engaged in the more significant
activities previously mentioned.

For what its worth, as a manager, I would be rather keen to see my engineers
taking steps towards understanding and participating in management decision
making processes especially where they can support their position with an
established framework such as Cobit or ITIL. This doesn't mean that you have
to sell the whole management framework concept to the admin or the company
but it demonstrates a level of understanding of how the IT infrastructure
(not the technology) fits into the business plan.

Kind Regards,

Denny
