Hi,

Can I extract the latest message from an email thread in Exchange Transport Agent in Exchange 2013? For example. if someone replied to my email, I want to get the only text the other person added when he/she replied to my email (when intercept in Exchange transport agent).

Help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi

I require some assistance please.  I have found a number of scripts online to send a Welcome Email to new users whereby they make use of the ScriptingAgent.xml file.

I like the way the scripts have been configured and have mashed up one or two scripts together for my desired result however when testing in my lab (Exchange 2013) I have found tow problems.

The problems are:

1. When creating a new user and mailbox (New-Mailbox) via the ECP the script throws out an error which I will post later in this post. The mailbox is created fine but it does not send out a welcome email.  When a user is created in ADUC and then a mailbox is created (Enable-Mailbox) the welcome email is sent out correctly.

2. In the script i have a section to check for NewUser00 in the HTML file and replace that with the Users Name and Surname, however this does not work correctly, I just come up blank:

The Script:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?><Configuration version="1.0"><Feature Name="WelcomeEmail" Cmdlets="New-Mailbox,Enable-Mailbox"><ApiCall Name="OnComplete">

if($succeeded) {
    # Waiting for synchronization after mailbox has been created.
    Set-ADServerSettings -ViewEntireForest $true
    Start-Sleep -s 10
    # New-Mailbox triggered. Taking SamAccountName parameter.
        if ($provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters.Contains("SamAccountName") -eq $true) {
	$UsrSamAccountName = $provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["SamAccountName"]
	$USRdfirst = $provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["FirstName"]
	$USRdlast = $provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["LastName"]
	$UsrAlias = (Get-Mailbox -Filter {SamAccountName -eq $UsrSamAccountName}).Alias.ToString()
	$USRdname = $USRdfirst + " " + $USRdlast
        }
    # Enable-Mailbox triggered. Taking Identity parameter, this is the only one avalaible in this case.
    if ($provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters.Contains("Identity") -eq $true) {
    $UsrIdentity = $provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["Identity"].ToString()
    $USRdfirst=$provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["FirstName"]
    $USRdlast=$provisioningHandler.UserSpecifiedParameters["LastName"]
    $UsrAlias = (Get-Mailbox -Identity $UsrIdentity).Alias.ToString()
    $USRdname= $USRdfirst + " " + $USRdlast
    }

        $UsrAddr = (Get-Mailbox -Filter {Alias -eq $UsrAlias}).PrimarySmtpAddress.ToString()

The Error for issue 1:

Any assistance in resolving these two issues will be really appreciated

I'm creating appointments with attendees (aka meetings) and sending invitations.  However, the times listed in the text of the invitation are UTC and I can't figure out how to change it or suppress it:  

When: Wednesday, July 08, 2015 3:00 PM-3:30 PM. UTC

Where: 240 BC

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I've tried setting the time zone at the service level, but it doesn't help.

new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2010, TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Chicago"))

Then I tried setting the TimeZoneDefinition for the appointment with appointment.setStartTimeZone(timeZoneDefinition), but every single definition returns a "The time zone definition is invalid or unsupported" error.  (I called .validate() on every definition available on our server.)

I am forced to use Java for this project, so TimeZoneInfo is sadly unavailable to me.  I am sending dates with the appropriate UTC offset when creating the appointments.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get this fixed?  It's a serious issue for us since the times in the text of the invitation are incorrect.  If you know how to suppress that extra text in the invite, that would work too.  

Hi,

I have found whilst developing against an on premises version of Exchange 2013 using Web Services the interval value for yearly appointments is not returned.

I used outlook to create a yearly appointment "on 1 June every two years" but when examining the Master Appointment using the Exchange Web Services API the Recurrence object doesn't expose the interval value.  I also inspected the XML returned by the server and it also didn't contain the interval value.  In this case i was expecting a value of 2.

Is there a way to determine the the interval value using the Exchange Web Services API for yearly appointments?

thanks

Hi,

I have setup a process mailbox account on exchange and added service account with editfor permissions.

When I try to call service.FindItems using C# managed api I am getting the following error;

When making a request as an account that does not have a mailbox, you must specify the mailbox primary SMTP address for any distinguished folder Ids.

Any ideas?

I am creating the exchange service instance with the NetworkCredential of the service account.

Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks

Using streaming subscriptions in Exchange Online cloud. I group subscriptions into shared connections by groupinfo from Autodiscover. To create a new group I start with the service impersonating Anchor user. Then I set anchor header and prefer affinity header. I retain the service instance for creating the connection and all subsequent subscriptions in this group because it has the backend override response cookie.

Periodically I get an error on a subscription:

Unable to retrieve events for this subscription.  The subscription must be recreated.

We have code written to handle this. It immediately looks up the subscriber's group info in autodiscover and creates a new subscription by the same rules above.  I have verified the groupinfo coming back is a different value than the first subscription. I do not have the exact location of the failure, but I believe I have it isolated to this code:

subscriptionSet.Subscription = Service.SubscribeToStreamingNotifications(folders, EventType.Created);
Connection = new StreamingSubscriptionConnection(Service, 30);
 Connection.OnDisconnect += new StreamingSubscriptionConnection.SubscriptionErrorDelegate(Connection_OnDisconnect);
 Connection.OnNotificationEvent += new StreamingSubscriptionConnection.NotificationEventDelegate(Connection_OnNotificationEvent);
 Connection.OnSubscriptionError += new StreamingSubscriptionConnection.SubscriptionErrorDelegate(Connection_OnSubscriptionError);
Connection.AddSubscription(subscriptionSet.Subscription);

Somewhere in that code the following exception is being thrown:

One or more subscriptions in the request reside on another Client Access server. GetStreamingEvents won't proxy in the event of a batch request.

When I restart the same subscriber manually with the same groupinfo, it works minutes later. But during the moments after the error, when I go to create the subscription it fails.  I do not know which line is throwing this exception, but I can't reproduce it. I will have more instrumentation the next time it happens, but for now this is all I have.

What I'm wondering is if these events in the cloud -- specifically, the ones that cause me to have to create a new subscription -- I'm wondering if maybe some replication must occur to establish the resource on the new CAS/or mailbox server, and if by reconnecting immediately I am not allowing this replication to get everywhere it needs to be.

Other than that I am out of ideas, because I know the groupinfo I'm using will be good in a few minutes, so I doubt it's that.

And since we're here, does anyone know which of those statements might be throwing this error? Maybe I could just put a catch to suppress this particular error and move on.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have recently upgraded my application from .NET framework 2.0 to 4.0. I am facing a strange problem after upgrade. I am unable to load Microsoft Exchange Assemblies. 

 rc = RunspaceConfiguration.Create();
                warning = null;
                if (Version == "2010")
                    info = rc.AddPSSnapIn("Microsoft.Exchange.Management.PowerShell.E2010", out warning);

I am unable to understand the cause of the problem. But with reference to the this article, I have concluded that this is a bug. Please suggest the soultion. 
Thanks in advance

I have seen a lot of posts on running Powershell in C# and have code that is working great when run under my account. What I'm wanting to do though is put my code in a monitoring service and have it still work. The monitor service run as Local System then the individual monitors run with specified crendials which allows us to use the same monitor service to monitor across domains.

Does anyone here know how I could run Powershell in C# with alternate credentials?

Thank you,

Dave 

Hi there

I need to search appointments by required or optional attendees using EWS. I've tried with a search filter collection and a query string but none of these options worked.

Search Filter Collection

var attendeeFilter = new SearchFilter.SearchFilterCollection(LogicalOperator.Or)
            {
                new SearchFilter.ContainsSubstring(AppointmentSchema.RequiredAttendees, mailAddress),
                new SearchFilter.ContainsSubstring(AppointmentSchema.OptionalAttendees, mailAddress),
            };

FindItemsResults<Item> results = ews.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, attendeeFilter, view);

Query String

string queryString = string.Format("(RequiredAttendees:{0} OR OptionalAttendees:{0})", mailAddress);

FindItemsResults<Item> results = ews.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, queryString, view);

Does anyone know the magic trick to achieve this?

Hello,

I found all permissions for a configured delegate in the 'DelegateUser.Permissions' class but I can not find the option 'Write summary to delegate'. Do you know where can I find it in the Exchange Web Services Managed API? Thank you.

Sorry I have only a screenshot from a german Outlook.

I'm making raw GetPersona SOAP requests to Exchange server (office365). As a response I get Persona object with all additional properties. How can I modify my request to get only some properties (e.g. job title, department, country)?

Here is how my request looks like:

I'm using raw SOAP request to get a list of people from GAL in Office365, By default, it returns only basic information about each Persona, when I try to add additional properties, like persona:PhoneNumber or change BaseShape to AllProperties, it returns an error "Invalid shape specification"

We are creating appointment in Outlook 2013 using EWS API. We want to create appointment which will not be delete by user. Only service can delete these appointment. how we can enable this feature for appointment.(*Appointment should not be delete by user*)

Currently, We are using Lotus notes and We can make appointment read only in notes for users.But API can delete these appointment.

Code:-

ExchangeService exchangeService = objExchangeservice_Conn.fnExchangeService_Conn();
            //Create an appointment
            try
            {
                  Appointment appointment = new Appointment(exchangeService);

                //object to create an appointment.
                appointment.Subject = "Test Meeting  ";
                appointment.Body = "This is test for a appointment";
                appointment.Start = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);
                appointment.End = appointment.Start.AddHours(1);
                appointment.Location = "test";

                appointment.ReminderDueBy = DateTime.Now;
                appointment.RequiredAttendees.Add("");
 appointment.Save(SendInvitationsMode.SendToNone);
Item item = Item.Bind(exchangeService, appointment.Id, new PropertySet(ItemSchema.Subject));
