Sent Items

This is a boon for people who regular use a shared mailbox…  Keeping track of the sent items in the “right place”, ie the sent items folder of the shared mailbox (rather than your own).

Check out the write up on this blog :

Essentially with a hotfix (from KB 972148) you can add the following registry key to get the sent items kept in the shared mailbox :

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences]

“DelegateSentItemsStyle”=dword:00000001

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences]

“DelegateSentItemsStyle”=dword:00000001

Strange issue with Outlook Web Access 2007

I have a mixed Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2003 environment.  In the environment I have :-

* An Exchange 2003 mailbox server

* An Exchange 2003 front-end server

* An Exchange 2007 CAS

* An Exchange 2007 mailbox server

The 2007 CAS runs Exchange 2007 SP 1.  From a client machine accessing the Exchange 2007 mailboxes using Outlook Web Access access to public folders is working.  When I click on a Public Folder which is hosted on the Exchange 2003 world, then I get some text in the right hand page saying :-

Click here to open this folder with Microsoft Exchange 2003 Outlook Web Access

When I click that link I was getting a page saying : 501 & 505…

HTTP 501 Not Implemented/HTTP 505 Version Not Supported

Further if I go to https://cas/public, I actually get redirected to https://cas/owa.

The issue is “resolved” by updating the mailbox server to Exchange 2007 SP 1.
