hi
I have installed exchange CAS role on one server (server name : excli1) and mailbox role on another (server name: exchange1), both are win 2012 standard . The AD server is win 2003 sp 2. I cannot connect to IMAP on excli1 from other computers , but IMAP works when connecting to localhost on CAS server. The IMAP services on both servers are started and no firewall is blocking the ports. I could not find anything special in imap logs. IMAP settings use standard port 143 and plain text authentication. The output of Test-ImapConnectivity shows the following error:
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Test-ImapConnectivity -ClientAccessServer:excli1
The specified computer isn't a Client Access server.
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (:) [Test-ImapConnectivity], LocalizedException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : [Server=EXCHANGE1,RequestId=139358e4-94ba-4e0a-95e1-6365216ab56f,TimeStamp=9/27/2014 5:2
8:19 PM] [FailureCategory=Cmdlet-LocalizedException] ED610FAB,Microsoft.Exchange.Monitoring.TestImapConnectivity
+ PSComputerName : excli1.test.local
I can connect to OWA and ECP on CAS server. I reinstalled exchange on the CAS but nothing changed.
thanks for your help
