Exchange 2007 – Ahsay restore to a recovery group
Ahsay have no support for native restore to Exchange recovery group, but here is a workaround of that problems.
First create a recovery storagegroup
new-storagegroup -LogFolderPath F:\Backup\Restore\Logs -Name ExchangeRestore -SystemFolderPath F:\Backup\Restore\Data -Recovery
Then create a empty database
new-mailboxdatabase -mailboxdatabasetorecover “Mailbox Database” -storagegroup ExchangeRestore -edbfilepath “F:\Backup\Restore\Data\Mailbox Database.edb”
Restore the Exchange 2007 database to a alternative location in ahsay. With both logfiles and the database files, restore it to “F:\Backup\Restore\Data\Mailbox Database.edb” or where you location is.
Then run repair of the restored database.
Eseutil /p “F:\Backup\Restore\Data\Mailbox Database.edb”
Then mount the database
Mount-Database -Identity ‘ExchangeRestore\Mailbox Database’
Example restore a mailbox to a Restore mailbox in the real database.
Restore-Mailbox -RSGMailbox ‘mailbox_to_restore’ -RSGDatabase ‘ExchangeRestore\Mailbox Database’ -id ‘Restore’ -TargetFolder ‘Restore’
Dismount the database
Dismount-database -Identity ‘ExchangeRestore\Mailbox Database’
Remove the database
Remove-MailboxDatabase -Identity ‘ExchangeRestore\Mailbox Database’
Remove the recovery group
Remove-StorageGroup -Identity ‘ExchangeRestore’
Outlook crash on opening a shared calendar
I have a problems today with an Outlook that keeps crash sometimes when a user is opening a share calendar. I tested it on my test machine and when the user opening the shared calendar at my test machine my own outlook crash also.
I then try to give the user full permission to the mailbox and that resolve the issues.
The error code in the event viewer was:
Faulting application outlook.exe, version 12.0.6514.5000, stamp 4a89dc70, faulting module mso.dll, version 12.0.6425.1000, stamp 49d65443, debug? 0, fault address 0x000057ba.
This is not the best solution but is a workaround for now. It seams to be a bug in the way Exchange 2010 and Outlook 2007 is running.

Delegates (Stedfortræder) problems in outlook
The error messages in Danish:
Indstillingerne for stedfortrædere blev ikke gemt korrekt. send på vegne af-liste kunne ikke aktiveres. Du har ikke den nødvendige tilladelse til at udføre denne handling på objektet.
The error messages in English:
The Delegates settings were not saved correctly.
Unable to activate send-on-behalf-of list.
You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
Solution:
In order to resolve this you need to give Write Personal Information permission to the SELF account on the user who is trying to add the delegate. To do this, follow these steps:-
Connect to your mail server.
Open Active Directory Users and Computers, and then click Advanced Features if it is not already selected on the View menu.
Expand your domain, and then locate the user’s Organisational Unit (OU).
In the right pane, right-click the user who is experiencing the delegate issue, and then click Properties.
Click the Security tab, locate the SELF account, and then click “Write Personal Information” and “Read Personal Information”.
Click OK
