Substitute for MS Outlook/Exchange functionality - Microsoft Exchange

Substitute for MS Outlook/Exchange functionality - Microsoft Exchange

Substitute for MS Outlook/Exchange functionality

Posted: 08 Sep 2007 06:04 AM PDT

Yes I'm aware of that. We have CALs for clients (for MS Exchange 2007), but
since we're using OpenOffice clients don't have MS Outlook, so we need to
buy extra Outlook licences for users. This is besides Exchange CAL
additional cost for Outlook licence, since Microsoft is so great that has
excluded Outlook licence from MS Exchange 2007 CAL. Don't know why ????
My way of looking at this...If we don't use MS Outlook with Exchange (we're
using Outlook Express or Thunderbird) there is no need that we have MS
Exchange, so it will be best to move back to Linux mail server! If more
people will do that, maybe Microsoft will reconsider and include Outlook
back into CAL in the next version of Exchange.

Miha

smtp relay deny

Posted: 07 Sep 2007 07:02 AM PDT

Hi John:

The problem is I can send a email from Internet to my exchange server, but I
can send a email from my domain through exchange server to Internet. It seems
the smtp server of those web sites(yahoo, hotmail, etc) block my smtp relay
from my domain.

Any idea? Thank you a lot.

- There are no GPOs for controllng Exchange Server configuration - that's
done through the Exchange management tools (console, shell, and some xml
configs).
- You can disable Outlook backgrounds by creating an ADM file (used with
GPOs)
Create a NewStationery value in

You'll have to ask your ISP about that, but I don't think you have to worry
about losing e-mail if you follow the strategy I suggested. All mail should
end up in the Exchange server or in the ISP mailbox, so just have the users
check the old mailbox and pop any remaining mail one last time a couple of
days after the switchover.

Partitioning problem

Posted: 01 Jul 2007 01:59 AM PDT

I'll give it a go tonight when I get home. Thanks for all your
assistance.

I'm using an older version of Ubuntu at the moment, because I bought a
book on Learning Ubuntu Linux and it had a CD at the back of the book
to use. It is an old version but I figured since the book directly
refers to its features during its explanations, I'd better stick with
it while I'm still learning. Once I've got to grips with the basics,
I can seek out and install the latest version, probably "Feisty Fawn",
which I understand can read and write to NTFS partitions anyway. I
imagine before long all the major distros will go over to NTFS, so as
to be compatible with the inevitable Windows partitions and data
that's already on most people's PCs when they install Linux.

Why not test by setting your local user TZ to something weird, and

Hi,

Now that I have worked it through, your post makes sense to me. I think I
can offer an explaination as to why I needed to build a new initrd as well.

This is speculation, but it appears that different initrd's are installed
during setup based upon which filesystem is selected at install. Since
ext2 was selected (years ago) during install, an initrd that didn't have
ext3 support was used. The original ext2 initrd was ~90K while the initrd
that I made with ext3 support was ~145K. Once I put the old modutils back
in, it began to load correctly. I built new modutils in preperation for
building a 2.6~ kernel, but in haste overlooked part of the installation
where you were advised to do a "make old", which copied your old modutils to
..old files. Did a force install of the old modutils, then installed the new
modutils correctly. The new initrd is now finding the .old files (which it
needs, since still using 2.4.20-6 kernel.) Was going to build a 2.6~
kernel, but now that everything is working, don't see any need to.
Security isn't a concern since nobody can get at it. Never had any problems
related to the 2.4.20 kernel. "If it aint broke, don't fix it."

None of the stuff that I do with it is critical. I've always had a fancy
for sensors and "real world" computer integration going back to Tandy TRS-80
Coco's. Just various projects here and there. Some do things that are
practical, others do things just to do them... Even though there are
ready-built gadgets and animals to do much of the same things these days, it
is just fun to do them yourself.

Thanks!

a high speed connection, if you don't want the install to take a week. ;-)

I just installed Debian Sarge (2.6 kernel) on a Thinkpad 240X which has a
non-bootable USB CD. Worked just fine. (You'll only need Disks 1 and 2
for a normal install with GUI.) Tried Debian Etch, but it didn't have
the driver for my CD-ROM on the driver floppy, and was unable to transfer
the install over to the CD. Too old, I guess. I'm going to try to do a
distro-upgrade -- Sarge to Etch -- via the net once I get everything

Haven't tried Arch other than reading the docs. It seems way too cutting

Thanks for the reply.

No the template is not in a project file. It is an enterprise template.

Installing MS Project trial version

Hi Justin and ed1671,

Sorry the only further advise I can suggest would be to order the trial CD
from Microsoft. The information is in the link below.

Hope this helps.

Mark --

In the future, please post your Project Server questions to the
microsoft.public.project.server newsgroup, as this newsgroup is devoted to
the use of only the Microsoft Project desktop application.

To answer your questions, team members are not added to the project's
SharePoint subweb until they have been assigned to at least one task in the
project. This is by design and it is how the system is supposed to work.
Hope this helps.

Assigning resources at the summary level

Robert,
This issue has been brought up many times in this newsgroup. You can do
a search on the subject and get all kinds of opinions. Generally,
linking to Summary Lines is a bad idea because the user needs to be
extremely diligent and careful to avoid two major pitfalls. The first is
creation of circular relationships. The second is unexpected changes in
the schedule (i.e. normal links on performance tasks are fairly easy to
see and predict but Summary Line links can cause some "sneaky" things to
happen). If you are familiar with circuit ysis in electronics,
Summary Line links are like sneak circuit paths.

If you have successfully used links on Summary Lines in the past, you
are either extremely lucky or very cognizant of their quirks.

Removing duration from the calendar view

Dave,
To be honest, I don't know. I never use the Calendar view but playing
with it a little it might be possible to do what you want but it
certainly won't be pretty (i.e. very readable). What I ended up doing is
to set up a separate 1 day task on the Finish date of each task. Then I
filtered the view so only the one day tasks were visible. Finally I set
the Format/Bar Styles for a line bar type (noncritical task). Like I
said, not very "pretty".

Project isn't all that flexible when it comes to presenting the data in
certain ways and the Calendar view is one of them.

Why do my links to break when I copy the entire document?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 12:19 PM PDT

Hi!

I'm having trouble with my links from excel into my word document. They work great, up until I need to copy the word document and excel document. 

I keep a MASTER copy of both the excel and word and save the "copied" versions as the OLD version so I can continue working on the MASTER copies. However, when I do this, the links break!

Why is that?

US versus UK English

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 10:36 AM PDT

Hi. I'm using Word 2010. In Word Options, Choose Editing Language, the editing language options are English (Ireland) <default> and English (U.S.) The Display Language and Help Language are both set to the default (Match Microsoft Windows <default>). The spell check on most of my Word files works as desired, ie flags US English as an error, but in some Word files, UK English (ie same thing as English (Ireland)) is flagged as an error in favour of US English. How do I ensure that the spell check on all Word files is English (Ireland) <default>? Thanks a lot in advance, Dollo

Why would AutoCorrect stop working?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 10:19 AM PDT

Do you have any idea why AutoCorrect would stop working.  I have a number of words added that should automatically correct as I type them, but for some reason none of them are working in the document I am working on this morning.  Any ideas what setting it would be that it suddenly stops checking?  I have checked FIle/Options/Proofing, and everything appears to be normal.  Is there somewhere else it can be turned off?  Some of these are simply shortcut words, such as nw for network or app for application or bw for bandwidth so that I don't have to spell them out every time, but none are working today.  Thanks for any ideas.

Linking Microsoft Excel Chart Object

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 09:15 AM PDT

When I paste a microsoft excel chart object as a link, I then size this image to 7 inches to fit on my word page.

When I need to relink (not Updated Link which works fine) the object snaps back to its original size. Is there a way that the 7 inches is respected when relinking?

cheers, Erich

How do I insert a checkbox BEFORE a list number in a test?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 08:50 AM PDT

I am trying to create a test that learners can fill in, using clickable checkboxes. Seems simple enough. But when I create a simple, multiple choice question, like the example below, and try to insert checkboxes using the Developer tool, for some reason the programmers have made it so the checkboxes are inserted AFTER the listed letters, not before, which is not intuitive at all. And I can't cut and paste them. I can't move them. I have no control at all, except to manual type all of the listed numbers and letters. And that sort of negates the entire point. I may as well just print the test and hand it out to my corporate learners like children.

SURELY there is a way to insert clickable checkboxes in the intuitive spot, BEFORE the answers??? HELP!!!!

  1. All of the Following statements regarding horses are TRUE, except:
    1. They have four legs.
    2. They can run quickly.
    3. They are purple.
    4. They have hooves.

      (Well, this box limits the formatting, of course - those second tier numbers are supposed to be letters. Man, my frustrating level is rising!!!)

Microsoft Office Starter 2010

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 07:13 AM PDT

I have a laptop running Windows 7 and Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - no problems.  My mother has the same setup and all was working fine until a couple of months ago.  Now when she tries to open a file she gets a box asking her 3 questions - does she want to buy Office 2010, install ... can't remember other options offhand - but all that happens with each of them is that she gets taken to Office website to buy new version.  I have been through every setting I can think of and nothing solves the issue.  Can anyone help?

Word Randomly Zoomed in Big . . .

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 06:36 AM PDT

This morning when I was trying a keyboard shortcut for an em dash, I pressed Fn, Alt and Plus/Equals, and instead of getting what I wanted, Microsoft Word 2007 zoomed in on itself, so much so that the icons, such as bold, italic and underline, are now blurry and hard to see. I have pressed Fn, Alt and Minus repeatedly to attempt to reverse the process, but this has not worked.

I would be grateful if someone could provide a solution.

Many Thanks.

How do I create preview images for workgroup templates in Word 2013?

Posted: 23 Oct 2014 02:56 AM PDT

I am trying to display preview images with my workgroup templates in Word 2013.

Everything I have read says to select the option to create thumbnails for the files when saving the template.

Yes, that creates thumbnails for documents created from the templates, but not for the templates themselves.

I'm obviously missing something but don't know what.

Can anyone help?

Reduce 3 empty lines to 2 - macro?

During review and cleaning up of Word documents, I often need to reduce 3 empty lines to only 2 in order to make it consistent throughout the document.

Can it be done via a type of "Find and Replace" function in a macro?

Thanks!

Creating a tile in Microsoft 8 or Finding a Tile that has "disappeared"

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 07:06 PM PDT

Here is my problem: 

For some reason, the tile for WORD has disappeared from my start Screen. 

Further, "Word" is not listed in All Apps

Yet, I can go to a previously created Word Document in "my Documents", open it, and edit it.

With that document open, I can then Ctrl N to create a new document

When I have an existing Word document open, I have all of the functionalities  which I had previously.

How do I get the "tile" back to the main screen, so that I don't have to do this long series of unnecessary steps to open a new document and get to work! 

Thanks in advance for your help

Icons freeze and won't let me save or anything while working in Word 2007

Posted: 22 Oct 2014 04:16 PM PDT

Do I have a "lock" on or something?  There must be a key I hit accidently that has made this happen because it's worked fine up until now.  I did the Microsoft Tools Diagnostic and everything seems to be fine.  Please help.
