I have exported several mailboxes from Exchange 2013 to a PST file. Now I want to remove the export requests, since they have completed successfully. I tried 

get-mailboxexportrequest | remove-mailboxexportrequest

and I get the following error:

So I run 

Get-mailboxexportrequest

And I see that the name and Identity of the moves are empty, completely.

Using remove-mailboxexportrequest alias\mailboxexport0 doesn't work either.

Using remove-mailboxexportrequest with the requestGUID parameters doesn't work either.

How can I remove this request?

We currently have our main Exchange servers in Germany, but have multiple locations in the United States.  We have MPLS connections to Germany, but they are fairly slow, and we have other traffic besides Exchange on these connections.  

When setting up a new computer for a user in the US, it takes multiple days for Outlook to copy the mail down for the first time setup (and with the speed, we definitely want the local cache).

I was thinking it may improve performance by setting up a server at the main location in the United States.  I'm assuming we can configure exchange to forward all incoming mail for the US accounts would from the German Exchange server to US server.

Would this be a recommended setup?  Any suggestions for best practices or making this as efficient as possible?

Thank you!

I have followed http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj150486(v=exchg.150).aspx in migrating our modest PF on Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 (we are sitting on a co-existence at the moment).

After step 7 and on Step 8, when I set myown account as test and opened Outlook, I was greeted with the below message when I tried to open our PF from Outlook 2010 (KB2596517 is already updated and this was working from Mailbox 2013 and opening the PF on 2007 fine )

"The set of folders cannot be opened. The attempt to log on to Microsoft Exchange has failed."

I ignored the error (alas!) and completed Step 8 only to realise the error persisted. After which I had to follow the steps for roll back but the error persisted. I had to dismount the PF on 2007 and re-mount it to bring it back online.

Anyone else having similar issues and any advise?

Many thanks,

Dear All,

Outlook 2010/2007 not connected with Exchange 2013, if the system joined at domain network and login through domain user, its works fine and outlook connected using auto discover But when a system not connected over domain, manually configured outlook neither authenticated and nor connected.

Hello

I have exchange 2013 server with CAS and mailbox roles.

As i understand CAS listens on 443 port (Default web site) and mailbox on 444 (back end)

I am not able access autodiscover directory. If i browse to:

https://exchange2013server/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

I get HTTP 400 error:

This error (HTTP 400 Bad Request) means that Internet Explorer was able to connect to the web server, but the webpage could not be found because of a problem with the address.

If i browse to:

https://exchange2013server:444/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

Everything works fine.

Why i am not redirected from 443 to 444 port when trying to access https://exchange2013server/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml ?

I am currently planning on setting up a branch office for a client.

Head office has a domain controller and a exchange 2010 server.

The two offices are already linked with site to site VPN.

I am planning on installing a server at the branch office for the purpose of a domain controller and exchange server.

Exchange will be setup with DAG to replicate between the two exchange servers

Brach office will have its own mail store database

My question is what roles are required on the branch office exchange server to have the branch office users connect to their mailbox directly on their server

Thanks

i have below setup and need to some help to verify few things

We are migrating to Office 365.  I ran the Office 365 Exchange DNS Connectivity test and received the following failure:

The MX value "name of the host server" doesn't match one of the allowed values:mail.eo.outlook.com,mail.protection.outlook.com,mail.messaging.microsoft.com,invalid.outlook.com

I checked the DNS entries both internally and externally and the MX records are correct.  The spellings are correct. 

I hear this is a DNS issue, but I'm wondering is this an issue with the Office 365 Connectivity Analyzer instead?

When I try to finalize installation of Exchange 2013, I get the Readiness Check message saying "Installing Exchange on a domain controller is not recommended" How do I resolve this issue?

Thanks

Hello all, thanks for reading!

Installed Exchange 2010 onto a 2008 server SP2 in my 2007 Exchange environment.

At the end of the install, there was an error with the MB Role install.  Now I have a mailbox DB that is not mounted with a copy status of ServiceDown.

I tried making a new mailbox DB but they error out with the following

I wanted to uninstall/reinstall the MB role but I get an error indicating there are mailboxes in this new DB.  I believe these to be the arbitration mailboxes.  Running get-mailbox shows one MB named DiscoverySearchMailbox that is on the Exchange 2010 server.  

Any thoghts on how I could proceed?

I currently have (Active Directory) a.domain and b.domain.  I have a.domain and b.domain email addresses.  a.domain has its own DCs (IP range 192.168.1.x) and b.domain has its own DCs plus 07 exchange server (IP range 192.168.16.x)  Between the two locations I have a 3 meg VPN pipe with 90 ms ping times.  I have 1 Default-First-Site-Name in Active Directory Sites and Services which both domains are assigned.

I want to move each domain to its own Site in AD Sites and Services so at each site users will authenticate with the appropriate DCs.  In addition, I want emails to be submitted correctly to the 07 Exchange Server located in a.domain (192.168.1.x).  Both domains are at 2003 level.

Hello all,

I have installed 2 exchange 2013 servers (1x Client Access, 1x Mailbox) in an existing 2010 SP3 environment.

• When creating new mailboxes, these mailboxes work perfectly fine.
• When migrating an existing (2010) mailbox to a new 2013 database, the migration takes very long (>24h per mailbox, also very small ones) and eventually complete with warning that the old database cannot be cleaned up.

This migrated mailbox cannot be accessed by OWA nor by Outlook 2013 clients. Get-Mailbox does show the mailbox in the new 2013 database.

How can I troubleshoot this?

Regards,
Stephan van der Plas

You know you're an engineer when you have no life and can prove it mathematically

We recently Migrated from a Server running Microsoft Server 2003 (Exchange 2003) to Microsoft Server 2012 (Exchange 2010). A week or two after the migration completed we started noticing that any new Active Directory additions or changes were not being reflected within the Global Address Book.

Example:
We added Lisa Smith a week ago to Active Directory and when we go into any version of Outlook to "TO:" we do not see Lisa in there under the Global Address Book.  But if we select All Users, she is in there.

So far we have tried Going into Organization Configuration --> Offline Address Book --> and Added a New Default Offline Address List. 

We have run the Manual Update and waited the 24 Hour window and seeing no change.  Any recommendations on where we can start?  We are not Advanced Exchange Users, please keep this in mind.

After applying the latest available updates to my Exchange 2010 server (all roles on the same server), I experienced many problems with all Exchange services.  Finally got everything working after applying SP3 and Rollup 2.  However, I still can't access EMC or EMS.  I've tried every fix posted on the net, including the Kerberos settings, authentication settings, removing/creating the Powershell virtual directory, etc.  OWA and Activesync appear to be working well.  The problem I am having is related to the powershell assembly microsoft.exchange.configuration.redirectionmodule, which won't load.  Note that I have checked redirection on the default website and redirection is NOT enabled.  Also, SSL is NOT enabled on the powershell virtual directory.

Note that all references to the server name have been changed for security purposes.

The error I get from the EMC is:
Connecting to remove server failed with the following error message: The WinRM client cannot process the request.  It cannot determine the content type of the HTTP response from the destination computer.  The content type is absent or invalid.  It was running the command 'Discover-ExchangeServer -UseWIA $true -SuppressError $true -CurrentVersion 'Version 14.3 (Build 123.4)"

When I try to browse to the path http:\\localhost\powershell I get this error:

PLEASE note that I have been through every blog post, KB article, and anything else I can find and nothing has worked.  I'm hoping someone can come up with a new approach.

Thanks!!

hello everyone. Okay this question might be a little too basic from a lame man. I want to know how do I create a business email with custom address like abc@mydomain.com using exchange?

Do I need to buy domain elsewhere or does microsoft provide the domain?

If elsewhere, after having bought the domain, do I need to also buy hosting services? 

Ps: this is only for email. I do not want to create a website

Thank you
