EXCHANGE 2010 - OUT OF OFFICE ASSISTANT
Hello Friends; I Have Exchange 2010 Server running in Windows Server 2008. My problem are as follows: - Out Of Office Messages are only sent internally and NOT externally . - After researching i realised that Out of Office messages are being rejected due to the null <> used as sender . In Exchange 2010/2007 Microsoft has changed the behavior of automatic server based notifications, especially “Out of Office” replies which should be sent with a blank sender This means that the HUB Server in your organization replaces the senders name with a blank one while transferring it to the internet. *Facts : * - I have no firewall installed for incoming/outgoing emails hence you can overlook this. - Exchange Connectivity test results are ok . - If you create an Open Relay Send connector the Out Of Office Message is sent to external clients but we receive very many NDrs since most Smart Hosts reject messages from a n Open Relay Send Connector. - The Companies Smart Host is smtpout.accesskenya.com - CMD Shell Results : All our settings are correctly configured . Below are the CMD Shell Results : *NonMimeCharacterSet : iso-8859-1 AllowedOOFType : External AutoReplyEnabled : True AutoForwardEnabled : True DeliveryReportEnabled : True NDREnabled : True MeetingForwardNotificationEnabled : False ContentType : MimeHtmlText DisplaySenderName : True TNEFEnabled :* Our CMD Results indicate that the message is configured . Is there anyone who can help with this ?

Hi Geoffrey, I have been working with Charles trying to troubleshoot this issue. Since you have said yours works perfectly for external users then just kindly confirm to us the following: are you using a smart host? Which ISP? patch level for your exchange 2010? Thanx.

FYI - Access Kenya SMTP Servers reject the null sender. I have tried to convince the guys to change this, but hit a dead wall. It's just one negative opinion I hold against AK - rfc-ignorant admins. If you are using AK as a smart host, you better arrange to send out OoO notifications using postmaster@your.dom.ain On 28 April 2014 10:58, Eric Mugatsia <mugatsia@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Mungatsia, I don't know the guidelines off the top of my head for Exchange. However, I suppose you can gugu for clues. For example this one: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb430765(v=exchg.150).aspx And this elaborate one: http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/exchange2010/exchange_2010_ndr.htm Pardon me since I don't know if what applies to Exchange 2013 will also apply to 2010. However, as admins, you should be knowing. On 28 April 2014 11:13, Eric Mugatsia <mugatsia@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi Washington,
Thanks, that's the same message we got from AK. Kindly send us the guideline on how we can change the oof notifications to use the postmaster address.

FYI - Access Kenya SMTP Servers reject the null sender. I have tried to convince the guys to change this, but hit a dead wall. It's just one negative opinion I hold against AK - rfc-ignorant admins. If you are using AK as a smart host, you better arrange to send out OoO notifications using postmaster@your.dom.ain

Hi Geoffrey,
I have been working with Charles trying to troubleshoot this issue. Since you have said yours works perfectly for external users then just kindly confirm to us the following:
are you using a smart host? Which ISP? patch level for your exchange 2010?
Thanx.

then check your transport rules , those are the only ones that can change sender info, i dont quite understand what you mean by* "In Exchange 2010/2007 Microsoft has changed the behavior of automatic server based notifications, especially "Out of Office" replies which should be sent with a blank sender This means that the HUB Server in your organization replaces the senders name with a blank one while transferring it to the internet." * this doesn't sound normal... mine works fine and doesn't change anything is the sender info
