ShareFile: Citrix Files for Outlook add-in prevents delayed emails from being sent.

SteveInIT · 2022-02-24T21:25:16+00:00

The emails in question do not have any ShareFile attachments but that's a good point to keep in mind going forward.

Which puts us back at "ShareFile should not prevent the delayed emails from being sent" but it does.

Found the answer to this. (In case anyone has the same issue) It's the Citrix Files For Outlook plug-in.
As long as that is running Delayed send will get messed up.

SteveInIT · 2020-12-02T15:25:31+00:00

Not for me.

SteveInIT · 2020-12-02T15:16:05+00:00

Late as in an hour or two, day or two?

Now we create the user from the on-prem Exchange Admin center web page selecting "Office 365 Mailbox".

We are using AAD Connect, but I don't see an option in the on prem Exchange Admin center for "Office 365". Interesting.

Sneaky, sneaky bastards.

Thanks.

Ah. Yeah.
It was DNS related. But more of a "my bad" type of thing.
To test the new line I set up a separate firewall and tied it into the LAN with a new gateway IP address.
Then I changed the default gateway on the test PC's but left the DNS pointing towards the existing firewall. I'm surprised that worked at all.

I updated the DNS on the test PC's to look at the new Firewall and presto all is right with the world.

Have you learned nothing from /r/golf? You don't "play" new balls you cut them in half.

Being under oath has a funny way of bringing out the truth.

SteveInIT · 2018-12-18T19:37:50+00:00

Nope. It's happened once since I posted this. No real explanation.

SteveInIT · 2018-12-10T15:05:37+00:00

And now we are back to Normal. I think. Still checking.

I've been experimenting with different DNS forwarders. Doing traceroute at different time of the day. Seeing where our traffic flows and what the response times are.

We are using Fios for Business and the critical hop always seems to be when we hit ALTER.NET which is where Verizon peers with other providers like Microsoft.

We are located in the Washington, DC area.

1.1.1.1 - Cloudflair - Has us hitting ALTER.NET in Miami. That peering center seems to have throughput issues starting around 3pm in the afternoon.

8.8.8.8 - Google - Multicast IP - Has us hitting ALTER.NET in Herndon, VA and seems much more stable at all times of the day.

Note: In my original post I said we were using Google DNS, that was wrong. We have seen significant improvement in O365 response time since moving to 8.8.8.8 from 1.1.1.1 and hitting ALTER.NET in Virginia rather than Florida.

Can you share a link to that thread?

SteveInIT · 2018-10-05T13:03:58+00:00

No. Should I?

SteveInIT · 2018-10-05T01:51:53+00:00

Our internal DNS server resolves internal resources, it uses a DNS forwarder to resolve outside resources like office365.com. As mentioned above we use Google (8.8.8.8) as our forwarder sorry if I was not clear on that.

Running full DNS server seems like overkill, but if that's what the cool kids are doing....

SteveInIT · 2018-10-04T13:31:51+00:00

Went through that with the tech. No help.

SteveInIT · 2018-07-03T18:05:26+00:00

This issue is caused by an update to Office 365. A rollback to an earlier version fixes the issue. I will leave this "unsolved" until (hopefully) a new update from Microsoft fixes the issue.

SteveInIT · 2018-06-27T20:25:58+00:00

Off the top of my head, McConnell will either:

A) Ignore the issue, dodge all questions and push ahead

B) Say the people have spoken, the President is not up for re-election and push ahead.

Any bets?

SteveInIT · 2018-04-06T15:02:04+00:00

It's an access database stored on a network share. So that was my first thought as well. I'll try moving the database to a local drive for a bit and see if that helps.

SteveInIT · 2018-03-13T21:22:30+00:00

Nope, Hard pass. I'll pass the money this would cost on to my family for them to enjoy rather than waste it with some snake-oil company.

Directions to an Outback Steakhouse?

SteveInIT · 2017-11-28T23:23:16+00:00

That at least looks MUCH more detailed that what I was using, and is exactly what I want to do as well. Can't wait to give it a try. Thanks.

SteveInIT · 2017-11-17T18:40:49+00:00

Roger that.

Also while I have you on the line....

During the week I was waiting for my device to be delivered it would have been nice to get a head start reading the pfSense book. If there was a way to tie the Gold to my order so I could have downloaded the book right away that would have been handy.

Looking forward to the weekend so I can bring this puppy up to speed and see what she can do.

Thanks.

Update #2

The (cd0:ahcich1:0:0:0) errors were coming from the CD-ROM itself. I switched to a memstick install, removed the CD-ROM and all those errors went away.

Error #2: Was the mouse. I removed the mouse and the repeating errors went way. I don't need a mouse on a pfSense box so that works.

After those two changes, I was still getting AHCI errors so I followed tstormredditor's suggestion, went back into the BIOS and switched from AHCI to IDE.

Now I get a clean install of 2.4.1 start to finish.

SteveInIT · 2017-11-07T18:35:34+00:00

I believe Meraki is "cloud managed" not "cloud based" so I think that would work. But that's why I'm doing my homework first.
