I am the IT Director for the sfwdb.org domain..  I have a premise exchange server 2010 and am migrating to 2016.

I didn't create a ms=xxxxxxx number that I am aware of yet it exists.

where do I get information on how this happened.. it is affecting my users, especially with Active Sync. it seems.

We do not have a corporate Azure or Office 365 account so I don't know how it became part of my DNS record..   Any white papers or help would be appreciated.

We are currently using EWS Managed APIs in our application and looking to migrate to use Outlook REST API approach. I am new to Outlook REST API world and looking for some inputs.

I am trying to fetch email from exchange using PR_ENTRYID with REST API and retrieve its properties, however always facing error like below:

Response status code does not indicate success: 400 (Bad Request).

Endpoint used : https://outlook.office365.com/api/v2.0/me/messages?

Code:

Above endpoint is appended with below filter:

"$filter=SingleValueExtendedProperties/any(ep: ep/PropertyId eq 'Binary 0x0fff' and cast (ep/Value, Edm.Binary) eq '" + entryId + "')";

where entryId is "00000000224A6557586868FH8N6765SZ6F78768686C9786R7658E8686860886D8768676C8B6CV75V7C57S6F5S8FSF7S9F7D86GD7G57D6G86D84000000"

also tried entryId of below form with no luck: "AAAAACJKsh5bmbBdknCdkkjAAdjhV76ssn876fBDJg76jdkBfnnnkbslnKns76229873qHGHGnPPSHSFH+gdgf8BmF8aJdgaAAA=="

Please note that I am able to expand properties as mentioned here, however unable to filter/fetch email with that property. I have followed official documentation at official documentation

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello,

I am trying to install Exchange Server 2010 SP3 on a Windows 2012 R2.

The process always stops when trying to install the Transport Server role , saying that the "MS Exchange Transport" service cannot start.

When I go to services I see that service as "starting" but I can't make it stop or restart it.

This box is also a Domain Controller.

May that be the cause?

Or do you know if there is an issue about Exchange 2010 SP3 with Windows Server 2012 R2 ? maybe a patch needed?

Thanks in advance.

Luis Olías.

Hi,

We are working with a vendor who has a mail app which they were attempting to connect via pop3/imap to our exchange server.  We do not have these items enabled as they are old and suggested they go through EWS.  They've researched the item and asked us to register for an App/API but I'm not sure I'm following their logic.

Our Exchange/AD are on prem.  Do I have to register https://apps.dev.microsoft.com/?referrer=https://azure.microsoft.com/documentation/articles&deeplink=/appList

or is this something they need to do?  Any help anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated as this is beyond my knowledge.

Hi,

I'm configuring an retentiontag for archiving a specific folder after 2 days.
I'm performing this via EWS.

The goal is to stamp a specific folder (called "TESTFOLDER" that's available within every mailbox), with a personal tag I created.

So far I've modified the script I've found here :
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/akashb/archive/2012/12/07/stamping-archive-policy-tag-using-ews-managed-api-from-powershell-exchange-2010.aspx?CommentPosted=true#commentmessage

1) created a personal tag called "1_Day_move_to_Archive"
2) Changed some settings of the code (EWS version, paths, etc.)
3) configured my account with impersonation rights. (to my own mailbox)
4) Inserted the GUID of the created tag into the script
5) Changed this value "$oFolder.SetExtendedProperty($RetentionFlags, 16)" to "$oFolder.SetExtendedProperty($RetentionFlags, 8)"
16 specifies ExplicitArchiveTag, 8 specifies personaltag >> I tried both settings here

Now when I run the script I don't get any errors thrown, and I get the prompt that the policy is stamped.
When I check afterwards via outlook/owa, I don't see any change however.

I already forced the folder assistant to run, but it also doesn't change anything.

Anyone knows what might be wrong?

these days, i had see some powershell articles. then i know powershell can use in .net and very easy to manage development. but i have some question as below. i hope someone can help me.

1. if web application and exchange server are not in the same computer. how to use the powershell in the web application  to manage exchange.

2. powershell had some defferent function. eg. it have Exchange manage command in the Exchange command console. it have the AD management in the powershell etc. but i don't know how the translate or include the different functions in the powershell application.

3. powershell had the strong command resourse. but i don't know how to auto run the powershell command and Exchange powershell though the system task. 

I know that we can manage an email sent to a person need to be approved or rejected using Exchange Server Mail Flow rules.

I am trying to achieve the same Approve/Reject email to be sent through Transport Agent code. Is this possible?

Note: Using EX2016

Hi all- I have a web application that uses EWS to process some items in a mailbox.  The mailbox is currently on prem but needs to be moved to exchange online.  When testing with an online mailbox, I'm getting a 401 unauthorized when trying to connect to EWS online.  Here's my code:

ExchangeService service = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2013_SP1);
service.Url = new Uri("https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx");
service.Credentials = new WebCredentials("email@company.com", "password");

Like I said, I'm getting a 401.  I've confirmed the email/password combo is correct, I am able to sign in directly O365 webmail with it and check the inbox. Does anyone know what I might be missing?

Hello Members,

We have recently installed Exchange 2016 CU11 in our environment and it is coexisting with exchange 2010. Everything works fine with exchange but I keep getting this error in exchange management shell when run get-app command.

If I login to Exchange admin center and go to Organization --> addins I get the same error Exchange Server doesn't support the requested version.

Tried a lot to look for that error on internet and got very few cases and none of the apply to my scenario

> I am not running exchange Managed webservices API 2.2

> My Arbitration are moved to EXG 2016

Any pointers to sort this out would be appreciated

Hi all

I have created a simple console application that consumes EWS and so sends appointments.

I have copied the exact function and made it as a SharePoint webpart but it is NOT working giving 503 error

I was testing with the same user

Any help?

Hi,

I am unable to access mailbox of a user, using OAuth.

I followed this article How to: Authenticate an EWS application by using OAuth

I am able to generate a token using 'AuthenticationContext.AcquireTokenAsync()', but then getting 401 error 'UnAuthorized.

Here is my code to generate OAuth token:

public  async Task<string> AcquireTokenAsyncForApplication(string clientId, string clientSecret, string tenantName)
        {
            var ResourceUrl = "https://outlook.office365.com";
            var AuthString = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/" + tenantName;// 
            if (TokenForApplication == null)
            {                
                AuthenticationContext authenticationContext = new AuthenticationContext(AuthString, false);              
                ClientCredential clientCred = new ClientCredential(clientId, clientSecret);
                AuthenticationResult authenticationResult = await authenticationContext.AcquireTokenAsync(ResourceUrl, clientCred);// 
                TokenForApplication = authenticationResult.AccessToken;
            }
            return TokenForApplication;
        }

I have registered the app properly, with permission 'Using Exchange Web Services with full access to all mailboxes'

Note: I am using Azure ADAL Lib 3.17.0, so using AcquireTokenAsync() instead of 'AcquireToken()'. I also, dont want to get a pop up, to enter user credentials, instead have to use ClientID (ApplicationID) + ClientSecret(Key).

Can anyone help me?

Thank you.

• Hi everyone,

  Recently in my company, Exchange has been migrated from Exchange On Premise to Exchange Online.

  I have implemented a .Net application to process mails, sent and move them in a shared Mailbox. After migration my app only receive (401) Unauthorized in any case. When I try to login through Explorer (OWA) there is no problem I login successfully.

  Will I need special permissions over  https://<server>/EWS/Exchange.asmx?

  Will I need register my application in Microsoft Cloud, get a token from app and use OAuth to use Exchange Websrvices Online?

  Will I need implement again my application using Office Developer tools for Visual Studio or using Microsoft Graph?

  Thanks and Regards 

Hello Expert,

Hi,

Is there a way to detect corrupted\bad items in an Exchange 2007\2010 mailbox, may be using EWS or PowerShell + MAPI?

Often Mailbox Moves fails due to corrupted\bad items in mailbox, so we want to know in advance if a mailbox has any bad items. I have searched it many times, but could not find answer. I also have detailed look into:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchange2010/thread/728141fb-3a9f-4bb3-a202-d11060b11fb5

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchange2010/thread/8d78e08b-4ef9-4b28-a322-98a9dbc436e5

but could not find any answer.

Thanks in anticipation.
