Password Expiry Notifications With Fine-Grain Policy

Hi

We have an issue currently on our system where users who have a fine grained password policy implemented are being notified that their password has expired under certain logon circumstances, when it hasn't. The default domain password policy expires after 42 days but our Exchange mailbox users have a fine-grain password policy allowing 90 days before expiry.

It appears if a user logs in to OWA after 42 days they are being prompted to reset their password. However they are able to connect Outlook to their mailbox with no issue until the 90 days has password.

From this it seems that OWA seems to take its information from a different attribute which I find very odd. Surely if a fine-grain policy has been put in place for that user then that is the expiry date that all logon activity should be based on.

Any advise on this would be appreciated as it is giving me a real headache at the moment.

Regards,

Simon

We have a few people out of many hundred that started having a quirky email issue.  When they go to a sent email, open it and choose "Resend this Message" (which creates a message with the same recipient list, subject and body to send this message again), they send their attachment (usually a pdf) and message body edits.  If they open that newest sent item, it looks normal.  But the recipients get the entire new message as an attachment in Plain Text format email (as opposed to the html originally sent format).  The main message is empty and they have to click the attachment to open the message which was actually sent.  The issue makes it difficult to describe in search terms for a search engine so I am hoping someone can help based on my description.  

We use Exchange Server 2007 and a domain here. 

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I am a student at The Ohio State University. I configured Outlook 2013 to check my EXCHANGE SERVER. It was successfully configured. However, outlook RANDOMLY disconnects to my EXCHANGE SERVER. I have been experiencing this for a month.

After I restart my computer, outlook will connect to my email again, but it will still disconnect to my email randomly at another time the day after
I am using window 8.1
Outlook 2013 (latest version)

Best,
Patrick Nguyen

I have one user, who can search the Inbox and find specific emails but cannot see them in the inbox, I have tried recreating the profile and using in OWA but both are the same. I have also tried add the mailbox on my PC and I get the same expierince, the message are in the Inbox folder they just can't be seen.

I've also tried resetting the view and confirmed there is no filtering on the view.

The missing email covers about 4 months worth.

Hi All,

I've configured POP3 and IMAP4 on an Exchange server 2013 and it seems set to go but I just cannot authenticate with a valid UPN and valid password for the UPN.

Any Ideas what the heck I am missing???

+OK The Microsoft Exchange POP3 service is ready.
USER myname@mydomain.co.za
+OK
PASS MyPassword
-ERR Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

So I tried with 'USER mydomain\myname' and got same result. This occurs is both internally via TELNET on the exchange server IP and externally from a remote location over the mail record.

Hi,

I am trying to sort out an issue with remote clients using Outlook 2010 who are trying to download their OAB. The end users are using Outlook anywhere and Exchange 2013 Server.

On the client end we are getting the following error:

microsoft exchange offline address book
not downloading offline address book files. A server (URL) could not be located
0x80004005

I have recreated the OAB and tried testing connectivity from the client but I still get the error above.

We use remote.domain.co.uk to connect to the server and the tests fail because it cannot find autodiscover. We have also set up autodiscover.domain.co.uk and can connect to this with owa but the address book download still fails.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

We have users who are sharing one PC and to log to this PC they use the same generic account, they do not use their accounts when login in to the computer. So when they open OWA on this PC most of the time it randomly closes and gets back to the login screen. Told them to login using their accounts and open owa to see if they get the same issue and they say No. But they need to use the generic account when login in to the PC. Has some one seen this kind of issue ? Is there where I can start tracing the problem ? PC is windows 7 IE 10

Hello, I work in an office environment where we have several secretaries who add or change appointments on others' calendars. They have editor level permissions. Our company uses Office 365 and we all use Outlook so generally everything is fairly smooth. Lately, if a secretary makes a change on a calendar and saves it, unless they close that calendar and then reopen it, the change isn't pushed through to anyone else's Outlook. And if they close Outlook without closing/reopening that calendar, the change is lost.  I can't pinpoint exactly when it started, but it seems to have started in the last week or so. Emails are working just fine, as are meeting invitations. The problem only seems to happen when someone is editing someone else's calendar.

We are all used cached mode, btw.

(I originally posted this question in the Microsoft Community and was told to try here.)

Hi Guys 

I'm trying to disable OWA for users in Disabled OU in AD, just trying to get the right syntax. domain : ad.SouthHelp.co.au

was trying to use syntax :     

Get-Mailbox -OrganizationalUnit "Disabled - Users" | Where {$_.CustomAttribute14 -eq $ext14} | Set-CASMailbox -OWAEnabled:$false

I have another issue in Exchange 2012 with Public folders where some emails only show the headers but not the body of the email.  The preview pane is set to show the first 3 lines of the body of the email and you see those lines in Outlook but in the preview pane all you see are the headers. If they email that back to themselves then the inbox will show you the whole email but if you view them in the Public folder nothing but the  headers are visible.

We created new profiles and gave the users new computers but the issue keeps happening.

I took off the checkmark about downloading favorite public folders but nothing changed.

I took them off cached exchange mode but nothing changed.

This happens to all user from one department because they all view the same public folder, so it's not happening to just one PC.

Any help, tips, or insight is greatly appreciated.

I have an Exchange 2013 server with some LAN clients, some people connecting on Outlook from home, and some connecting via mobile devices.  None of the LAN computers are on a domain, and everyone has a public IP address.  This means split DNS doesn't really play a part as everything points to the public IP anyway.  The autodiscover record is pointing at that IP.

I'm sure I screwed something up trying to solve other problems, but the situation now is as follows:

1. Everyone, internally and externally, who had Outlook already up and working continues to work.
2. New Outlook profile setups fail.  After I enter the email address and password, outlook pops up a new window prompting for a password.  I've tried domain\user and user@domain for the username, and I just keeps prompting me.  When I hit cancel, I get the error, "The name cannot be resolved. The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
3. Mobile devices have stopped working, and I cannot create a new connections either.

I realize this is a bit vague and not a lot of specific errors to go on, but that's why I'm stumped.  I reconfigured ActiveSync according to https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh529912%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx, using the same name for both internal and external URL's.  And that name is in the certificate, as autodiscover.domain. 

Any other thoughts?

Hello,

It was suggested that I move my question to this forum to get the best pool of answers. So here it is:

I am an IT administrator at a small law firm in the DC area.  Within our environment we have Exchange Server 2013 and Office 365.  We have approximately 60-65 users accessing their corporate email, contacts, and calendars from their desktop pc's as well as their mobile devices.  The majority of our users are using IOS devices and then we have seven users using Android, myself included.  There aren't any large issues going on with the IOS devices but out of the seven Android users only two are experiencing recurring issues. 

One Android user has a Samsung Galaxy S5 and the other an Asus ZenFone 2.  Both are running on Android 5.0 Lollipop. The Galaxy S5 user is on Verizon and the Zenfone 2 user is on T-Mobile. The problem comes in on both of them as their emails, contacts and calendars stop synchronizing on the same day but at different times.  Example: Galaxy S5 user's emails, contacts and calendars stopped syncing early Monday morning around 0432 EDT; ZenFone 2 user's emails, contacts and calendars stopped syncing late Sunday evening around 2330 EDT.  They both started to synchronize again this morning.  

One of the puzzling things is that there are two other Galaxy S5's in the environment on Android 5.0 Lollipop and on Verizon as well. These other two devices did not have any issues. It was only the Galaxy S5 and the ZenFone 2 users mentioned earlier. The ZenFone 2 user is also experiencing issues with their contacts not syncing with what's in Exchange.  The device shows a contact with one address and email while Exchange shows the same contact with a different address and email.

Can anyone suggest something that I haven't tried that has worked for them?

Hi,

We have got an issue reported by user recently.

She is a delegate to the calendar of her boss.

The secretary told me the same thing that it was not happening before and now it started. (It makes sense to me why it is doing this) but the boss doesn’t want to get the emails.

Instead of “Secretary on behalf of Boss” to the recipient he wants as a regular meeting request.

Also the boss gets the following message which he doesn’t want to get

Microsoft Outlook; on behalf of; Secretary

Hi

I am sending emails on behalf of a shared mailbox but want the replies to come back to me. Currently the only way I can do this is to go into Options on the email and select "Direct Replies To" and ensure this has my email in it. I am having to do this for every email I send out, is there a way to get this to default so that replies will come back to me without me having to check it on every email I send.
