review the smtp protocol log-file data for the response codes that the receiving server returns after your server issues an ehlo command. look for the response code 250-size xxxxxxx, where xxxxxxx is the maximum message size that the server can accept.

1.

Which of the following Exchange Server 2003 maintenance tasks should you (or your assistant) perform on a daily basis, which on a weekly basis, and which on demand?

  1. Review antivirus logs.

  2. Check the integrity of information stores and repair them as necessary.

  3. Check the application log in Event Viewer for error and warning events.

  4. Review performance logs to identify trends.

  5. Review protocol logs.

  6. Check the available disk space on volumes that store Exchange 2003 databases.

  7. Check the Badmail folder. Monitor the application log in Event Viewer for warnings and errors.

  8. Defragment Exchange databases.

  9. Check mailbox limits.

you should perform tasks a, c, and f on a daily basis. you should perform tasks d, e, g, and i on a weekly basis. you should perform tasks b and h on demand.

2.

You want to delegate responsibility for dealing with service failures and for gathering Exchange 2003 store statistics. Which specific daily monitoring tasks should you delegate to your assistant?

you should delegate the following tasks: * daily monitoring of event viewer to identify event information about service failures, active directory replication errors, and low-disk-space warnings. * checking monitoring and status daily to view connector status and exchange server status. * daily monitoring of exchange and network services to detect problems with services startup, active directory replication, and network health. * daily review of exchange store statistics to determine whether the exchange store is mounted, what users are logged on, the state of public folder replication, and the state of full-text indexing.

Sean Alexander, an executive at Blue Yonder Airlines, has sent an e-mail to your chief executive officer (CEO). The message is not in your CEO's mailbox, nor is it in the Badmail folder. Sean has not received an NDR. Where should you look to find the message, and what action can you take to expedite delivery?

the message is probably queued for delivery. you can use the find message utility in queue viewer to find the message. if there is no particular property (such as excessive size) that is preventing delivery of the message, then you can force a connection by right-clicking the queue and clicking force connection.

2.

You receive a report from Don Hall that he is receiving NDRs when he sends email to Kim Akers. You know that Kim still works for Fabrikam and that her mailbox is not disabled. You ascertain that the e-mails sent did not have excessively large attachments. Other users report that they have no problems sending email to Kim. You suspect that Don is consistently misspelling Kim's username. How can you quickly check this?

look in the postmaster mailbox. if, for example, mail has been sent to k.ackers@fabrikam.com instead of to k.akers@fabrikam.com, then ndrs should be stored in that mailbox. the badmail folder will not store this e-mail traffic because ndrs can be returned to the sender.

You are receiving reports from several users on one of your Exchange stores that the counter for unread messages does not accurately reflect the actual number of unread messages in their inboxes. You verify that the users do not have filters on their inboxes. What should you do next?

you should use the isinteg utility to test the integrity of that exchange store. based on the information that isinteg provides, you may need to repair the exchange store.

2.

You suspect that an Exchange mailbox store has become fragmented and that there may also be integrity errors. You attempt to use the isinteg and eseutil command-line utilities, but they will not run for that store. What have you forgotten to do?

you have forgotten to dismount the store.
