Configure Dedicated Exchange Server Application
Currently our product ranning exchange 2019 CU15 with Exchange hybrid, so what else need configure other task for configuration of the dedicated application for Exchange Server. HCW8126 - Admin consent was not granted during the configuration of the dedicated application for Exchange Server. The application will be created but will not function until consent is provided. Please re-run the Hybrid Configuration Wizard (HCW) or grant consent via the Entra ID portal before using the application.
Hotfix update for 2016 CU23 HU18: (KB5066370) breaks OWA and leaves all services disabled
Has anyone else applied the latest hotfix? First of all it tries to validate open files instead of just killing these processes as part of the update, then after rebooting all the services are left in a disabled state. Then I discover it has broken IIS and OWA doesnt work. We have had client issues all day in the office. It looks like another update has been pushed out without sufficient testing. Any help would be grateful at this point, I am looking to take 2 out of 4 servers offline.
Update Federation Trust Certificate
Almost five years ago, I had set this up. I realized the cert is about to expire. I only have on test account on prem, everything else is in the cloud. Oauth is set up and we do have token based auth. I followed the steps to generate a new self signed cert, everything looks good even the text file in DNS. The issue is, when I run set-federationtrust - identity "Microsoft Federation Gateway -publishfederationcertificate, I get the following error. [FailureCategory=Cmdlet-Live DomainServicesException] 2B0D1031,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.SystemConfigurationTasks.SetFederationTrust + PSComputerName I have search and and tried several things for TLS 1.2 Enforcing TLS 1.2 on Windows 2019 via the reg Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 enforce SchUseStrongCrypto Force Powershell to run tls1.2 I had to remove some of the verbage - i think the forum does not like it. Does anyone have any ideas Thanks Paul
Exchange SE and Domain / Forest Functional Level 2025 Support
Does anyone have any general idea on when they may test support for Domain / Forest Functional Level 2025? We're still rocking hybrid with Exchange SE and ExO and as such we're waiting on the supportability matrix (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/plan-and-deploy/supportability-matrix#supported-active-directory-environments) to get updated so we can raise the DFL/FFL. Currently Exchange SE supports 2025 AD servers so they've verified the schema update from 88 to 91 is good to go but our Exchange team doesn't want us to raise the functional level until this matrix shows that it's supported for our current Exchange version. Thanks for any insight. Supported Active Directory environments The following table lists the supported Active Directory environments for Exchange Server. Version Active Directory servers Forest Functional Levels Exchange Server SE Windows Server 2025 Windows Server 2022 Windows Server 2019 Windows Server 2016 Windows Server 2012 R2 Windows Server 2016 Windows SApplying On-Prem EAP with New-Remote Mailbox
BACKGROUND: my org is in a hybrid AD/Exchange environment, and will remain so for some time. All mailboxes, other than a very small number with on-prem dependencies, were migrated to M365 a few years ago; we will continue to have 1-2 Exchange Servers on-premises for both management and some legacy on-prem processes. All user accounts are created on-premises, and synchronized to M365 through Entra Connect Sync. Our on-prem EAP has the exact address syntaxes that we need [applies to "Users with Exchange mailboxes" + "Resource mailboxes" + "Mail-enabled groups"]. I haven't found a clear answer to the question: with an Exchange 2019 (and soon SE) server on-premises - with users initially created on-premises - is there a way to provision new EXO mailboxes [using the 'new-remotemailbox' cmdlet], such that the on-prem EAP applies during creation? I've been working with these two references, but so far haven't found a way to make the "new-remotemailbox..." cmdlet work to (a) create a new account on-premises and (b) ultimately have an EXO mailbox provisioned with the on-prem EAP addresses in place: On provisioning mailboxes in Exchange Online when in Hybrid | Microsoft Community Hub https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchangepowershell/new-remotemailbox?view=exchange-ps Any thoughts or suggestions would be welcomed! (OR - perhaps it just can't be done?)Use PowerShell to Send Messages from Shared Mailboxes, Groups, and Distribution Lists
Everyone probably knows how to use Exchange's Send As and Send on Behalf of permissions to send email from user mailboxes. Here we venture into the same task, but for Microsoft 365 Groups, shared mailboxes, distribution lists, and mail-enabled security groups. Once your permissions are aligned, everything is pretty simple. https://practical365.com/sendas-send-on-behalf-of-mail-objects/
Exchange EWS API Error
After migrating from 2016 to 2019 and SE, I was trying to move my script to the new server but came up with many issues. I was using this yesterday and it was working and today it's not. Seems random and no idea why it's happening that Exchange2016 disappears from the selection. $Service = New-Object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeService( [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeVersion]::Exchange2016 ) The property 'Exchange2016' cannot be found on this object.

Hello, I have an add-in that I run in Exchange Server 2019. When replying to an email, my add-in requires some information related to the parent email. For this, I use the EWS GetItem API. In the response, I get an <InReplyTo> tag, where I find information about the parent email. See below example for more info: The issue is that if I change the subject in the reply, I do not get that <InReplyTo> tag in the response, and hence cannot access parent email information. This issue is only observed in Outlook on Mac (classic UI). Any information, workaround, or timelines on a potential fix for this issue will be greatly appreciated. Do let me know if any further information is required from my end. Thanks, Raghunandan KumbharMicrosoft 365 Tenants Need Vanity Domains to Send External Email
Microsoft will impose a throttling limit for external recipients for tenants that use MOERA domain addresses to send outbound email. The limit is designed to stop tenants using mailboxes with primary SMTP addresses from MOERA domains from sending email, a technique that’s often used by spammers. This shouldn’t cause a problem for legitimate organizations who already have vanity domains, but it might stop some spam. https://office365itpros.com/2025/08/25/moera-domain-limit/
