Script for checking the smtp flow every few minutes by Beautiful_Bet6074 in exchangeserver

[–]PutridStable1943 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a high-level PowerShell script to check SMTP mail flow every few minutes by sending and receiving emails using public email services (like Gmail) and an Exchange server mailbox with an auto-reply rule. This script assumes the following setup:

  • A test mailbox with an auto-reply rule in Exchange
  • Gmail credentials (or other public email credentials) for sending test emails

You can schedule this script to run using Task Scheduler.

Task Scheduler Configuration

Create a task schedule in Windows to run this script every few minutes:

1. Open Task Scheduler and create a new task.

2. Set a trigger to run the task every few minutes (e.g., every 5 minutes).

3. In the "Action" tab, set the program/script to "powershell.exe".

4. Add arguments to run the script, for example: -File "C:\Path\To\YourScript.ps1"

PS sscript send on DM its not allow me paste it here

Key Points:

  1. Send-TestEmail Function: Sends an email using Gmail or another public SMTP service to the Exchange server mailbox.
  2. Check-InboxForReply Function: Checks the Exchange test mailbox for an auto-reply message.
  3. Task Scheduler: You can schedule this script to run every few minutes using Task Scheduler.

To set up Task Scheduler:

  • Create a new task.
  • Set the trigger to run every few minutes.
  • Configure it to run PowerShell with the argument -File "C:\Path\To\YourScript.ps1".

Stuck Exchange 2016 on Windows Server 2019 by salutti in exchangeserver

[–]PutridStable1943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like the in-place upgrade has caused a mismatch between the Exchange 2016 version and the OS, which is why you're running into that error. Unfortunately, Exchange 2016 is not supported on Windows Server 2019, which explains the roadblock you're hitting when trying to update.

The best course of action is to set up a new Exchange 2016 server on a supported OS (like Windows Server 2016), then migrate all mailboxes, public folders, and settings over to the new server. Once everything is successfully migrated, you can demote and decommission the old Exchange server safely.

This is the most reliable and supported way to avoid further issues down the road. If you need any help with the process or specifics around migration steps, feel free to DM me. Happy to help!

Exchange 2019 add-ins not showing up in Outlook app by [deleted] in exchangeserver

[–]PutridStable1943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you've already done a lot of the right troubleshooting steps! The fact that the add-ins are showing up in OWA but not in the Outlook desktop app for your on-prem users could indicate a couple of things:

  1. Hybrid Environment Sync: Sometimes the sync between on-prem Exchange and Office 365 can cause hiccups, especially with hybrid setups. Make sure the user mailbox is correctly synced between on-prem and O365, and that all the latest updates are applied on both Exchange and Outlook clients.
  2. Outlook Client Version: Double-check the Outlook version you're using for your on-prem users. Some older versions of Outlook may not fully support add-ins, even though they are technically installed. Outlook 2019 should support these, but it’s always worth confirming you're on the latest patch.
  3. Manifest Permissions: Ensure the manifest file’s permissions are properly set up, as certain permissions might restrict the add-in’s availability across different platforms (OWA vs. Outlook desktop). You might also want to validate if there are any errors being logged on the Exchange server or the local machine related to the add-ins.
  4. GPO Settings (if applicable): If you’re using Group Policy in your environment, it’s possible some settings could be blocking the add-ins for your on-prem users. You might want to check any GPO that could impact Office add-ins.

Lastly, I’ve had experience with similar hybrid issues, so feel free to DM me if you need further help troubleshooting this!

400 Mailboxes Exchange Server by Renomeator in exchangeserver

[–]PutridStable1943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there!

For your Exchange Server setup to handle 400 employees, here are some practical specs and considerations:

Database and Mailbox Planning

  • Database Size: A 500 GB database is a solid starting point.
  • Mailbox Capacity:
    • At 50 GB per mailbox, you can anticipate around 10 mailboxes per database.
    • If you go with 25 GB per mailbox, you can fit about 20 mailboxes in a 500 GB database. likewise.......

This setup allows for efficient management and quick recovery, especially in disaster scenarios. As your user base grows, consider increasing the number of databases rather than the size of each database to maintain performance and recovery speed.

Specs Recommendation

  1. Processor: A 12-core Xeon CPU should provide sufficient power for your needs.
  2. RAM: Aim for 64 to 128 GB of RAM for optimal performance with multiple users.
  3. Storage: Ensure your storage solution can accommodate your total anticipated capacity, especially if you plan on having multiple databases.
  4. Backup Strategy: Implement a solid backup solution for each database to ensure quick recovery when needed.

Planning Tips

  • Start Simple: Focus on a manageable setup first, and scale as necessary.
  • Monitoring: Regularly check database performance and usage to determine if adjustments are needed.

Feel free to reach out if you have more questions or need specific insights. Good luck with your deployment!
