Exchange performance issues

“Exchange 2003 SP2 starts to have RPC performance issues around 3,500-5000 items in a single folder.

If you have 6,000 items in a single folder, say “Inbox” then when you are doing any actions that requires Exchange to query a new view for you, you cause RPC latency delays for the other users of the same server. Other users may end up getting the RPC baloons in Outlook in that case.

It isn't the cumulative count of items in the top-folder and all sub-folders that is the issue (thats limitless), it is >3,500 items in a single folder.” - scorp508

“It is due to limitations of the 32-bit Exchange application, Jet Database, # of max RPC sessions per Windows Server, and other Exchange coding.” - scorp508

Bovenstaande betekent dat het logbestand E020002D896.log het oudst benodigde logbestand is.

Exchange mailbox permissies

Microsoft Support - How to assign service account access to all mailboxes in Exchange Server 2003 beschrijft het regelen van toegang tot alle mailboxen door het toekennen van Receive As permissions op een mailbox store.

How to Allow Mailbox Access

“When you grant a user the Full Access permission to a mailbox, that user has full access to only the mailbox for which the permissions are applied. With the Full Access permission, the user can open and read the contents of the mailbox. However, the user cannot send as that mailbox without additional permissions.”

“When you grant a user Receive As permission to a mailbox database, that user can log on to all mailboxes within that database, but is not able to send e-mail messages from those mailboxes. Also, if you grant Receive As permission at the storage group level, the specified user can log on to all mailboxes within all databases in the storage group.”

“Full Access or Receive As permissions are not granted until the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service caches the permissions and updates the cache. To grant the permissions immediately, stop and then restart the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service.”
Bron: Microsoft TechNet - Exchange 2007 - How to Allow Mailbox Access

How to Grant the Send As Permission for a Mailbox

“Use the Send As permission in Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 to configure a mailbox so that users other than the mailbox owner can use that mailbox to send messages. After this permission is granted, any messages that are sent from the mailbox will appear as if they were sent by the mailbox owner.”
Bron:Microsoft TechNet - Exchange 2007 - How to Grant the Send As Permission for a Mailbox

Minimum permissions necessary to access mailbox data

“What we came to find out was that the Receive As permission was the only permission necessary to access information in the mailbox.”

“There are a couple of scenarios that could occur depending on which version of store is installed on the Exchange server. If no hotfixes have been applied then the user will be able to delete messages, create messages, read items and files. The user will also be able to send email from that mailbox. If the server is at store.exe hotfix builds 7233.51 and higher for Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1) or Store.exe hotfix builds 7650.23 and higher for Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) then the user will have the all the same permissions to delete messages, create messages, read items and files, but will no longer be able to send messages from the mailbox. ”

“When a custom application is accessing the mailbox the Receive As permission is necessary. The Receive As permission on the mailbox gives the user access to the same tasks as when granting Full Mailbox Access: delete messages, create messages and send email (as the user who is accessing/logged into the mailbox), read items and files, but also gives the user the permission to copy data out of the mailbox.”
Bron:Microsoft Exchange Team Blog - Minimum permissions necessary to access mailbox data

“Send As” permission behavior change in Exchange 2003

“A fix has been released that changes the behavior of the “Full Mailbox Access” feature in Microsoft Exchange Server 2003. Prior to this change, any user with the “Full Mailbox Access” permission for a mailbox also had the ability to “Send As” the mailbox owner.”
Deze fix is een aparte update voor zowel Exchange 2003 SP1 als Exchange 2003 SP2. Standaard SP1 en SP2 edities van Exchange 2003 geven effectief Send As permission bij Full Mailbox Access.

Offline Address Book

Event ID 9395

Op een Exchange 2007 twee node cluster, verschijnt na failover van het CCR cluster naar node 2 de volgende melding in het Application eventlog:

Event Type:	Warning
Event Source:	MSExchangeSA
Event Category:	OAL Generator 
Event ID:	9395
Date:		18-12-2009
Time:		5:02:54
User:		N/A
Computer:	Mailbox2
Description:
OALGen is running on a cluster continuous replication (CCR) node which does not have registry value 'SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA\Parameters\E2K7CCR\EnableOabGenOnThisNode' or it is not set to this node name. Offline address book generation will not be performed. 

For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

Als je de waarde van de genoemde key bekijkt, en deze blijkt de naam van de andere node te hebben, zie dan hieronder. Als de waarde helemaal niet bestaat, dan kan het zijn dat niet alle nodes voorzien zijn van de RTM versie van Exchange 2007, zie de link naar Dgoldman's WebLog hieronder.
Als de andere node echt plat is, kun je de waarde van de key aanpassen. Daarna word er een nieuwe offline address book gegenereerd dat door alle clients in zijn geheel opnieuw binnengehaald moet worden.
Is de andere node niet plat, fail het CCR cluster dan terug naar de eerste node.

OWA timeout

by John Savill, FAQ Editor, jsavill@windowsitpro.com

Q. How can I modify the Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 Outlook Web Access (OWA) timeout that's applied when OWA has forms-based authentication enabled?

A. By default, when OWA has forms-based authentication enabled, sessions have a 15-minute inactivity timeout for public or shared computers and 24 hours for a private computer. If you're using a public computer to compose a long email message that takes more than 15 minutes to write, the session will time out and you won't be able to send the message. You can change this timeout value (which is the cookie lifetime) by using this procedure:

Log on to the Exchange server as an Administrator.
Start the registry editor (regedit.exe).
Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeWEB\OWA subkey.
From the Edit menu, select New - DWORD value.
Enter a name of PublicClientTimeout and press Enter.
Double-click the new value and set it to the desired number of minutes before a timeout (1 to 4320), set the type to decimal, and click OK.
To set the timeout period for a private client, repeat the process of creating a DWORD value, but this time enter a name of TrustedClientTimeout and again set the value to the number of minutes before a timeout (The value for private computers should be significantly higher than for public computers.)
Stop and restart the World Wide Web (WWW) Publishing service by using these commands at the command line.

net stop w3svc 
net start w3svc

Attachments blokkeren/vrijgeven voor webmail

Ga in de Exchange Management Console naar Server Configuration → Client Access → Outlook Web Access → properties van owa (Default Web Site) → tabblad Public Computer Access → klik op Customize onder Enable direct file access → klik afhankelijk van of je de attachment wilt toestaan of weigeren op de knop Block… of Allow… en voeg hier de bestandstypen. Vergeet niet om een bestandstype uit de lijst met geblokkeerde bestandstypes als je deze toestaat en andersom.

Address List Service not Available

Bij het gebruik van de New-Mailbox cmdlet krijg je de melding dat de address list service niet reageert. Dit kan een aantal oorzaken hebben zoals uit onderstaande links. De System Attendant service herstarten lijkt soms ook al voldoende te zijn.

Exchange 2010 + Outlook 2003 + opening lots of shared calendars/mailboxes

If you have Outlook 2003 users opening a multitude of shared calendars who are complaining about “Exchange server not available” errors while doing so, you may be hitting the 32 per (service) user session limit on Exchange 2010.

You can verify this by checking the Application Event Log of the active mailbox server. There you should find event id 9646 errors with source MSExchangeIS looking like the following:

Mapi session "11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555: /o=Organization/ou=First Administrative Group/cn=Recipients/cn=username" exceeded the maximum of 32 objects of type "session".

If so then add the following two registry keys to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\MSExchangeIS\ParametersSystem:

Name	Type	Base	Starting value
Maximum Allowed Sessions Per User	dword 32-bit	decimal	64
Maximum Allowed Service Sessions Per User	32-bit dword	decimal	64

Keep incrementing the value with 32 until you stop seeing event id 9646 errors in the Application Event Log.

AutoComplete (aka *.NK2)

Elke keer dat je een nieuw adres invoerd en mailt wordt dit adres opgeslagen in de AutoComplete cache (Oulook.nk2) hier is echter maar ruimte in voor 1000 regels.
Zodra het 1001ste mailadres wordt ingevoerd, wordt het oudste mailadres vervangen.

Deze cache is daarom ook geen vervanging voor de adreslijst. Het is daarom raadzaam om de belangrijke mailadressen op te slaan in de contactpersonen lijst.

Dit kan heel eenvoudig op de volgende manier:
Open een nieuw mailtje en voer het emailadres in. Rechtsklik op het emailadres en kies voor “Toevoegen aan contactpersonen in Outlook…”.

Mailadres verwijderen uit historie

Om een mailadres te verwijderen uit de historie van gebruikte mailadressen kan het volgende gedaan worden:

Open een nieuwe mailtje.
Voer de eerste letter in van het mailadres dat verwijderd moet worden. Druk niet op de tab toets.
Gebruik nu de pijltjestoetsen om in de getoonde lijst het te verwijderen mailadres te selecteren.
Druk op DEL.

Of gebruik een programma als NK2View van Nir Sofer om het historiebestand buiten Outlook om te bewerken.

Foutmelding bij openen terugkerende agenda afspraak

Bij het openen van een terugkerende afspraak verschijnt in plaats van het verzoek om dit item of de reeks de openen de melding:

Kan het item niet openen. Kan het object niet vinden.

De agenda afspraak is op een andere pc onder dezelfde inlog wel te openen.

Oplossing is hier het hernoemen of verwijderen van frmcache.dat, de forms cache.

Sluit Outlook en de overige Office programma's (liefst alle programma’s sluiten, ik weet niet wat er naast Office nog gebruik maakt van de forms cache).
Ga naar C:\Documents and Settings\inlognaam\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\FORMS.
Hernoem of verwijder FRMCACHE.DAT.
Start Outlook opnieuw op en open de terugkerende afspraak.

Het probleem zou hiermee verholpen moeten zijn.

NDR from deleted user/Ghost Delegates

Bij het sturen van een afspraak door persoon A naar persoon B binnen de organisate, krijgt persoon A een NDR mailtje terug dat persoon C niet bereikbaar was omdat het mailadres niet bestaat.

Persoon C is al enige tijd uit dienst en was bij persoon A vermeld onder Tools→Options→tabblad Delegates in Outlook. De account van persoon C is verwijderd uit AD. Bij het opvragen van de Delegates bij persoon A is er een merkbare vertraging (waarschijnlijk omdat Outlook de naam probeert te zoeken bij het SID van persoon C, maar deze niet kan vinden). Persoon C is niet meer te vinden onder Delegates, ook niet als SID.

You receive a "500 5.5.0 Syntax error - line too long" non-delivery report when you send an e-mail activity by using the Microsoft CRM Web client or Microsoft CRM Sales for Outlook

A foreign Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) system may reject a message from an Exchange Server 5.5 computer that was sent by means of the Internet Mail Service. The errors that the receiving system reports are:
• 500 Line too long.
• 501 Path too long.
• 552 Too many recipients.
• 552 Too much mail data.
The message is then rejected by the receiving system.
Bron: XADM: Header Line of Message That Was Autoforwarded by Rule Is Too Long

Zie ook SMTP Error - 5.5.0 Syntax error - line too long (Problem: \n stripped out of HTML messages):

“This problem occurs if the e-mail activity that you sent has more than 999 continuous characters in the e-mail activity message body. Some e-mail systems use an unsolicited commercial e-mail (UCE) filter that may be configured to reject e-mail activities that have more than 999 consecutive characters in the body of the e-mail message. Check if your e-mail has one single line without any <enter> between them. This usually happens with mail servers that include an automatic signature file.

Problemen met Reminders

Melding:

Er is een probleem met het lezen van een of meer herinneringen. Misschien worden enkele herinneringen niet weergegeven. Kan de informatie over het terugkeerpatroon van de afspraak niet vinden.

There was a problem reading one or more of your reminders. Some reminders may not appear. Cannot locate recurrence information for this appointment.

Oplossing lijkt te zijn:

Click to select the Calendar folder.
On the View menu, point to Current View, and click Recurring Appointments.
Open the damaged item. If you don't know which item it is, perform the remaining steps on each item.
On the Actions menu, click Recurrence.
In Appointment Recurrence, click OK. You may receive the following message:

      Any exceptions associated with this recurring appointment will be
      lost. If any of the exceptions are meetings, the attendees
      will not be notified. Is this OK?

      NOTE: This means any changes you made to individual occurrences of
      the item will be lost and the new recurrence pattern will be set.

Click OK if you receive this message.

Save and close the item.

Problemen met verdwijnende Shared Calendars

Probleem bestaat bij zowel Outlook 2003 als Outlook 2007.

We also are running '03 and '07 mixed environment on exchange 2003 with disappearing calendars. Anyone find a fix besides: Periodically, the list of shared Calendars will disappear and these Calendars will need to be reopened to rebuild the list. There are significant differences in the architecture of Microsoft Outlook 2003 and 2007, and in the case of People's Calendars, Microsoft Outlook 2007 stores the shared list in the user's mailbox on the Exchange Server instead of locally on the client workstation thereby providing the list to multiple clients accessing the mailbox. The downside to this approach is the potential for network connectivity issues which might cause the data to be written incorrectly or corrupted and not delivered properly to the client. Microsoft has now stated as of 6/7/07 that there is a bug regarding shared calendars disappearing when users are in online mode. This fix is expected to be rolled into Office 2007 SP1. In the meantime we recommend that you run Outlook 2007 in cached Exchange mode if you are having this problem.
Van: Why do my shared calendars disappear in Outlook?

De volgende links herleiden het probleem tot een corrupt profielnaam.xml bestand in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook, hernoemen van het bestand of het starten van Outlook.exe met de optie /resetnavpane wordt aangegeven als een workaround:

Outlook 2007 Shared Calendars disappear
Outlook 2007 shared calendars are lost when exchange 2007 reboot Hier verdwijnen shared calenders bij clients als de Exchange 2007 server een reboot krijgt. Voorgestelde fix (vanuit Microsoft(?)) is om SP1 voor Exchange 2007 en SP1 voor Office 2007 te installeren.

PST(/ost) openen faalt met melding over onvoldoende rechten

Probleem: Het openen van een pst bestand in Outlook faalt met de melding dat je onvoldoende rechten hebt op het bestand.

Oplossing: Verwijder het read-only attribuut van het bestand. Mocht die niet gezet zijn, controleer dan de rechten of eventuele aanwezigheid van de HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\DisablePST key.

Event ID 214

Jason Slater Technology Blog - Exchange 2007 Fails To Backup Using NT Backup hier was de oorzaak dat circular logging aan stond op één van de db's.

op Exchange 2007 SP3 CCR bij backup op passive node

Als je op een Exchange 2007 SP3 CCR cluster de backup uitvoerd op de passive node, dan worden de logbestanden niet opgeruimd.

Dit schijnt een known issue te zijn waar een interim fix voor beschikbaar is als je de MS Support molen induikt. Deze fix word ook onderdeel van Rollup Update 1 voor Exchange 2007 SP3.

Workaround is om in de tussentijd de actieve node te voorzien van backup.

In het Application event log kun je dit fenomeen terugvinden onder event id 214 na backup:

Outlook high CPU

Problem description
Several Outlook 2010 SP1 + security updates on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Terminal Server environment are using around one CPU core of processor time (around 6% on a 16 core server).
Event logs don't mention any related warnings or errors.
Extra Outlook logging does not show anything useful.

Somehow at some point out of the blue the Application Event Log had the following to say with regards to Outlook:

  </EventData>
</Event>

Solution
After configuring the firewall to allow the Terminal Server to access the Exchange server mentioned in the event log entry, the Outlook processes on the server dropped to 0% after about 2 minutes.
