On May 11th, the SharePoint Saturday Cologne took place at the new Microsoft Office in Cologne.
My session covered the migration of legacy public folders from Exchange Server 2010 to modern public folders hosted on-premises or Exchange Online. Additionally, I've talked about the pros and cons of a migration to Office 365 Groups and Microsoft Teams.
The slide deck is available on SlideShare.
Enjoy Exchange Server and do not forget about the end of support for Exchange Server 2010 on January 14th, 2010.
This script connects either to Exchange Online or to a dedicated on-premises Exchange Server to export configured mailbox delegates and SMTP forwarding configurations.
The SMTP forwarding configurations are gathered from inbox rules and from mailbox forwarding settings.
# Example 1 # Connect to the on-premises Exchange Server mx01.varunagroup.de and export delegation and SMTP forwarding information .\Get-DelegatesAndForwardingRules.ps1 -ExchangeHost mx01.varunagroup.de # Example 2 # Connect to the on-premises Exchange Server mx01.varunagroup.de, export delegation and SMTP forwarding information and get verbose information on the objects worked on .\Get-DelegatesAndForwardingRules.ps1 -ExchangeHost mx01.varunagroup.de -Verbose # Example 3 # Connect to Exchange Online and export delegation and SMTP forwarding information .\Get-DelegatesAndForwardingRules.ps1 -ExchangeOnline
Use GitHub Issues to leave comments, requests, end even bugs or issues.
The script is based on the O365-InvestigationTooling script DumpDelegatesandForwardingRules.ps1 by Brandon Koeller Find more Office 365 investigation tooling scripts at https://github.com/OfficeDev/O365-InvestigationTooling.
On Saturday, May 11th, the SharePoint Saturday Cologne will take place at Microsoft Office.
My session covers the migration of legacy public folders to modern public folders in the cloud.
Migrating from legacy public folders to modern public folders in Exchange Online is an error-prone process. Especially for Exchange organizations using legacy public folders since the early days. Real world examples from the field will show you how to determine the right migration approach. Additional information will help you to avoid the most common errors when migrating to modern public folders to the cloud. But what about after migrating to the? There is more. Prepare for decommissioning Public Folders by moving content to Microsoft Teams.
See you in Cologne.
Office 365 supports the upload of PST files to Azure storage for a direct import to mailboxes hosted in Exchange Online. The steps are described in detail in the online documentation at Microsoft Docs.
Import CSV using an email address
Workload,FilePath,Name,Mailbox,IsArchive,TargetRootFolder,SPFileContainer,SPManifestContainer,SPSiteUrl Exchange,,SALES.pst,TeamMailbox-Sales@varunagroup.de,FALSE,IMPORT,,,
But you might encounter the following error after starting the import job using the Security & Compliance dashboard.
X-Psws-ErrorCode: 840001 X-Psws-Exception: Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.ManagementObjectAmbiguousException,The operation couldn't be performed because 'TeamMailbox-Sales@varunagroup.de' matches multiple entries. X-Psws-Warning: When an item can't be read from the source database or it can't be written to the destination database, it will be considered corrupted. By specifying a non-zero BadItemLimit, you are requesting Exchange not copy such items to the destination mailbox. At move completion, these corrupted items will not be available at the destination mailbox. X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Before you were able to start the import job the job configuration, the CSV file, and the content of the PST file were analyzed successfully. There was no hint of multiple entries for the target mailbox.
The detailed error message can be retrieved using the View log link. A clear text message is stated in the Status detail column, but you need to expand the width of the column.
The hint provided in the status detail column states that there are multiple identities for the primary email. At this point in time, I do not know, how this possible when the target account is synchronized with AAD Connect.
Use the target mailbox GUID instead of the target email address as the target address in the CSV configuration file.
Connect to Exchange Online Remote PowerShell session and query the mailbox GUID for the target mailbox(es).
# Query target mailbox GUID for a single mailbox Get-Mailbox TeamMailbox-Sales@varunagroup.de] | FL Guid
Create a new import job referencing the same PST file already copied to the Azure storage.
Import CSV example using the mailbox GUID
Workload,FilePath,Name,Mailbox,IsArchive,TargetRootFolder,SPFileContainer,SPManifestContainer,SPSiteUrl Exchange,,SALES.pst,e7b7c35f-929d-420e-99a5-3c9afc419281,FALSE,IMPORT,,,
The import job will now be executed as expected.

The script can be used to assign an application account (e.g. CRM, ERP) send-as permission to user mailboxes to send emails AS the user and not as the application.
This script loops through a membership list of an Active Directory security group. A single mailbox (CRM/ERP service account mailbox) is added to each mailbox (CRM/ERP user mailbox) of the security group members to provide send-as permission.
The script has been developed as a solution to enable proper functionality with Dynamics NAV 2016.
