Exchange 2003 periodically sends spam burst

Posted: 06 Mar 2008 07:13 AM PST

Thanks, it looks like this was a case of an external exploit on the
authenticated relay. I will be turning thest off on more clients.

Question about SMTP connector for internet mail on Exchange 2003

Yes, our internal DNS will go to the outside for name resolution if
necessary. I just thought that since most of the email DNS lookups are
probably going to be for the outbound internet domains, it might be more
efficient to have the Exchange server query the external DNS at our ISP,
instead of taking the extra hops to go to the inside ones first (which would
end up going to the external ones anyway).

Using CDOEX with Exchange FrontEnd/BackEnd configuration

Posted: 04 Mar 2008 08:49 AM PST

Unfortunately, CDOEX can only access a mailbox on the server that it's
running on - it can't access a remote mailbox:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa142505(EXCHG.65).aspx

You'll need to either install your application on each BE server, or rewrite
it using a different API, like WebDAV.

I've seen something similar in reverse., but some users were using a
groupwise client that uses a nonstandard text.htm attachment to present the
message as rich text, which of course outlook ignores, but groupwise shows
first.

No groupwise? Then I'll crawl back under me rock ;-)

What permissions or configurations have you on the SMTP. Clearly this
has nothing to do with IMAP and as John stated, nothing to do with EAS
either.
Your SMTP sounds like you're allowing Submission but not Relay. Two
things that are similar but different.

I had done some searching on various key words and phrases to find

with a CCR public folder; really what it was saying is that it "shouldn't"

When I added "lossy" to the search mix, I got this:

Delivery restrictions do nothing?

Posted: 26 Feb 2008 10:28 PM PST

In this case both address spaces for both SMTP connectors are identical
though. The only thing that distinguishes my two SMTP connectors is (1)
Cost value and (2) restrictions on who can use them.

Let me put forth a different example. If I was to set up just one SMTP
connector that has delivery restrictions set up so that messages from
everyone are rejected by default and only to allow messages from one user
(bob), I can still get it to send emails from other users. This is clearly
incorrect behaviour - what good is the delivery restriction if Exchange
ignores it?

All I'm trying to do is get different users to use different SMTP Connectors
based upon delivery restrictions alone - all other settings can be identical
for all I care. If that's not possible, it begs the question of what on
earth delivery restrictions actually do?

Microsoft Word - Many cross references - how to format only figures/tables

Microsoft Word - Many cross references - how to format only figures/tables

Many cross references - how to format only figures/tables

Posted: 09 Dec 2014 02:41 PM PST

Hi

I'm editing my dissertation and need some help with the formatting of many cross references. I apply three types - Figures, Tables, and numericals for chapters/subchapters etc.

How can I use Alt-F9 and Replace All according to one style (Times New Roman, 10, upper cases, bold) on ONLY Figures and Tables, and leave out the chapter references (such as 2.1.3, 5.4.2 etc.) which I want to stay as is? I tried to find the walkthrough, but can only find those which apply for ALL cross references. 

Incidentally, I notice that the { REF etc etc etc } includes the qualifier \r \h in the chapter refs, but only the \h in the ones for Figures, but cannot find out how to apply this in my command line.

Help is greatly appreciated! Wouldn't like to manually do this for each.

Sincerely, 

Torbjorn

Undo and Redo button in Office 2013 (Word 2013, Excel 2013, OneNote, Powerpoint 2013)

Posted: 09 Dec 2014 02:21 PM PST

I have been working with Office 2013 (Office 365 to be precise) on Windows 8.1 for a couple of weeks now and noticed that it is missing a feature I used a lot in Office 2007.

The Undo and Redo buttons used to have drop-down menus, listing all changes the user made. In that list I could select a change I made and it would undo or redo everything up to that point. I can't remember if that was the default button in the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT) or something I customized but it was there. My new office doesn't have the drop-down anymore. So when I want to undo 20 changes I have to click the button 20 times. I looked at costumizing the QAT and there is only one version of the undo button. In fact it looks as though it should have a drop-down list but I cannot see that once I back in the actual Word or Excel or whatever part of Office I am using. I have also seen screenshots of Office 2013 where the arrow for the drop-down list is clearly visible (for example on the Wikipedia screen shots.

Now I have 2 questions:

  1. Does the drop-down list feature still exist in Office 2013 / Office 365?
  2. Should it be there by default?
  3. How can I get the drop-down history list in my Office programs?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Track changes in Word 2013: can I change the available palette?

Posted: 09 Dec 2014 11:26 AM PST

This may seem trivial, but I am an editor, so I spend much of my life looking at tracked changes in Word. I recently installed Word 2013, and the darkest blue available for showing tracked changes is a fairly bright blue. I find this distracting when looking over the flow of words.  I'd like a darker/royal blue instead, so that it is still distinguishable from the unchanged black font but doesn't leap out at me. Along with a new version of Word, I also have a new computer with a new version of Windows (from 8 to 7 Professional), so perhaps it's something in one of those that needs to be tweaked.  

Thanks in advance for your help.

Word 2010 Creates very large SPL files when printed

Posted: 09 Dec 2014 09:40 AM PST

I have a .docx file that was created in Word 2010, When I print the document it creates a 3 GB file in the print spool, However when the document is printed out of Word 2013 it only creates a 100 MB SPL file. If I convert the file to a .doc and print it out of Word 2010 it only creates a 62 MB file.

Why does Word 2010 create such a large SPL file?

I have "enable advanced printing features" unchecked.

Can't make Dark Gray Word 2013 Theme Work

Posted: 09 Dec 2014 09:29 AM PST

I just installed the free month trial of Word 2013. I am trying to change the theme to dark gray, like I had it in Word 2010. In Word 2010, the dark gray theme darkened the background color surrounding the page. The navigation pane and the ribbon also became darker. But in Word 2013, when I select the dark gray theme, all of those sections stay blaringly white. In short, the entire screen stays white!!! The only thing that changes is that the color of the File button in the top left corner goes from blue to black. That's it!!!! Is this just because I'm currently in the free month trial of Word? This shouldn't be the case, because I gave you guys my credit card information and I'm set to pay the monthly subscription fee. Please help me get Word looking like it did in Word 2010. This is how it used to look in Word 2010:

Why does not Word formula recognize the numbers above 15999

Posted: 08 Dec 2014 10:59 PM PST

Recently (between August 2014 and now) my Word 2013 has changed the behavior when parsing the numbers in table formulas.

By trial and error I've figured out that it works fine if cell value is between 0 and 15999 inclusive. 16000 and above yield 0 when used in formulas.

It gets more complicated when floating point is used - I didn't have enough time to isolate the specific error conditions.

Word version is 15.0.4667.1000 MSO 15.0.4667.1001 32-bit, Win 7 Professional 64 bit; regional settings are set to en-US, no customizations to number formatting.

Changing styles in multiple documents using macros

Posted: 08 Dec 2014 04:49 PM PST

Hey

I am trying to make a macro that combines several documents and changes the styles within the document to that of a template.

Firstly i have a macro that imports the template styles
Sub Template()
'
' Template Macro
'
'
    With ActiveDocument
        .UpdateStylesOnOpen = False
        .AttachedTemplate = _
            "C/:"
    End With
End Sub

This works fine

Next i am trying to change the styles of the original document

Sub Replace_styles()
' Replace_style Macro


'2
    Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
    Selection.Find.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("Alpha_list")
    Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
    With Selection.Find
        .Text = ""
        .Replacement.Text = ""
        .Forward = True
        .Wrap = wdFindContinue
        .Format = True
        .MatchCase = False
        .MatchWholeWord = False
        .MatchWildcards = False
        .MatchSoundsLike = False
        .MatchAllWordForms = False
    End With
    Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
    Selection.Find.ClearFormatting
    Selection.Find.Style = ActiveDocument.Styles("List")
    Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting
    With Selection.Find
        .Text = ""
        .Replacement.Text = ""
        .Forward = True
        .Wrap = wdFindContinue
        .Format = True
        .MatchCase = False
        .MatchWholeWord = False
        .MatchWildcards = False
        .MatchSoundsLike = False
        .MatchAllWordForms = False
    End With


The main issue i am having with this, is i run this code several times for each individual style, but if the style does not exists in that particular document the code stops. Is there a way i can get this to run regardless of whether the style exists as i want to run this same code in hundreds of documents some of which have varying styles.

Thankyou

365 Page numbering, headers and footers not working

Posted: 08 Dec 2014 04:47 PM PST

Hi. I have searched through the posts but am unable to find the answer.

This is Office 365 on Win 7 and the page numbering has stopped working on new and old documents. I get message 'More options from Office.com' then greyed out "No online content available'.

Both Header and Footer option also only give two style options rather than previously a longer list of style options.

These options all previously worked fine

One suggestion from an earlier post said to change the Building Blocks.dotx to BuildingBlocks.old so that Office would rebuild a new file but when I tried this I got an error message that the file was in use even though I had closed all office products.

I need some help please.

Update links from excel 2003 to word 2013 doc?

Posted: 08 Dec 2014 12:12 PM PST

In the past I create and template 2003 excel file with data in each cell that could be linked to a template 2003 word file in a unique folder.  As the need arose I copied the folder to a new location and put in new information.  I would then use the newly created folder and file as required.  The way I set the folders and files up, I necessarily have to change the target location for data in the new word file when I opened the newly created word document.  Word 2003 gave me the opportunity to redirect the target file.

When I migrated to 2013 I expected to see the same kind of menu opportunity.  Now when I open the document that was originally created in 2003 which is now a 2013 word document the program asks if I want to update the links and I answer yes.  It then says that it cannot find the target file (which I would have assumed would be the case,) but there is no opportunity to change the target location.  And I can find no menu pull-down anywhere that would let me reallocate the target location.  Is there anything that is equivalent  to the process that was in 2003

One way to achive this is to copy the milestones and use PASTE SPECIAL and
click the link option while pasting to a master file all the milestones. You
will have to manually copy and paste the milestones into a new master file,
but once done, your updates to individual files will reflect in the master

Use the [Finish Variance] field as your formula in a custom Duration field.
The Finish Variance field automatically calculates the difference between
the current Finish date and the original Baseline Finish date. Then use the
following rules to generate the stoplights:

Is greater than 10d Red

Is less than or equal to 2d Green

Rate of production vs workload

Posted: 01 Dec 2005 12:15 PM PST


No worries

I'll work out the durations for each task based on what I know to be the
amount of production to be achieved and take it from there....
I thought that that was a realatively common requirement of a schedule and
so it was just a matter of learning how to do it. I was hoping that if i
knew the maximum rate of production, and the amount of work to be produced,
that somewhere I could have everything done automatically.
Thanks though.

I'll make a spreadsheet and obtain draft durations.

Was any of the work entered as done?
In that case you cannot automaticallly reset the start date (Project is very
willing to update your plan, but it won't change history - only kings did
that in the past) but the good news is that you can automatically reschedule
the unfinished work to after a certain date:
Tools, tracking, Update Project, it is well explained there.

Posted: 01 Dec 2005 08:55 AM PST

Let me add what I have learned. Priority is used when resource leveling a
project. The higher the number the higher the priority. Priority is from 1 to
1,000.
If you use 1,000 MS Projects will not level task with this priority number.
You might want to use 1,000 on contractor schedules you receive. Do not put
1,000 on summary task. This will cause MS Projects to become confused.
You can also go to View, Resource Sheet. Here you can add a column "Can
Level" - YES/NO. This will also turn off the leveling.
You also need to set your resource max units and assign resource calendars
for this to work.

Could you give the milestone a duration of, say, 1 minute? This might
overcome your problem.

Project and DotNet Framework v2

Posted: 30 Nov 2005 11:59 PM PST

Hi Rod Gill,

Thank you for your response.

Yes, I did a new project installation on another computer with framework v2
installed which does not have a Project 2003. The same result happen when I
run the program. I did a detect and repair without ecountering any error
response. The result remained the same.

I also did a new installation on another computer running Windows 2000
Professional without Framework v2 installed. The program runs fine.

Beside this, I did encounter another problem, When I make the new
installation of Project 2003 on the computer with Framework v2. It's also
ed up my outlook profile, I noticed it when I ran my Office Outlook 2003
and was prompt for a new profile. What happen to my existing profile? no
idea. Luckily, I always put all my emails into other datafiles in other
directory, so I did not actually lose any emails, I hope.

I also noticed from time to time, new installation can actually ed up
Office program, eg requesting for reinstallation of program. This happen to
Excel once.

Who Does What When Report Modification ??

If I understand your problem: Take one of your Text columns and define the
"project" in each cell. Go to the report and edit the way it's sorted. Sort
by Text (Project) first. Let we know how this worked.

how do calculate FTEs in MS Project?

Posted: 30 Nov 2005 01:01 PM PST

Sorry, I know how to change the time scale. What I needed was to display work
and also # of FTEs (Full Time Employees) the work represented. My solution
only works if you are not using the Cost piece of the resources. If you enter
..2/d in the rate for each resource, then Cost which can be displayed as a
line under work contains the FTEs.

Thanks anyway for your help.

Andreas,

Thank you for your answer.

One comment though: I think MS could simplify this process: how about in
the same contact window, there would be a company field, website address of
the company,... then when you want to save the record, there would be an
option to make a new account from the info you entered, where only the
relevent info would be saved in the aacount record (such as company name,
phone number, web address,...

Thanks for your tip anyways

Integer or Float?

Note that if you don't want the number to automatically show commas
(and there is no way to turn this off), you may want to add it as a
text field. Counter-intuitive, I know, but that's the only way to get
a number to appear like 40000 instead of 40,000, if that's what you
want.)

HTH,

Dave,

That indeed is an interesting approach, but i wouldn't really consider this
an alternative. That is why I mentioned update in workflow is not possible,
but again an interesting workaround :-)

Hi Amit,

Thank you very much for your quick response.

It wasn't quite as simple as you wrote. Our network has a domain policy
that doesn't allow users to change the security settings in IE. But, I
convinced him to allow those of us in the Domain Admin group to be able to
make such changes. Then, after a quick reboot, I was able to make it prompt
me for credentials.

So, again, thanks.

you can create a custom field, but I do not believe there is are native
fields to audit account ownership. The guys at visionary software
http://www.vscrm.com have an add on that will record ownership along
with any other changes to the account.

send email to new contacts/accounts

Posted: 14 Jul 2005 05:00 AM PDT

Hi Shawki,

Go to home/settings/template manager/email templates. Create an email
template to use with accounts. Then in the workflow manager, when you are
editing the send e-mail action properties, choose this template. CRM
automatically sends the email to the e-mail of the primary contact, if it
does not exist, sends the email to account.emailaddress1.

The idea is that, the emails you send using the workflow manager, but
without using templates are sent to internal users, emails sent using the
workflow manager with email templates are sent to external users.

Hope this helps,
Bilge Gul

Crystal Reports Publication

Posted: 13 Jul 2005 12:04 AM PDT

Yes, I have grouped the report by Quote number
This seems to be a Quote report so that it can be exported in the word
format and presented to the customer with slight modification.
The report is ready and is approved by the customer.
But cannot filter it in CRM for a particular account, user etc (the filter
options available in CRM)

Thanks
SAM
