RE: OWA - new email brings up strange URL

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Rob,

Thanks for posting in our newsgroup.

From your description, I know that when you create a new e-mail in OWA, the
URL go to https://domain.com/exchange/pineridge/Drafts/?Cmd=new.

If that's not right, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Based on my research, when you click New button in OWA, the URL goes to
https://server.domain.com/exchange/username/drafts/?cmd=new.

Please take the following steps to narrow down this issue:

Step 1: Please check if pineridge is the username.

Step 2: You can test with a different user account, when logon OWA and
click New, can the URL go to
https://server.domain.com/exchange/username/drafts/?cmd=new.

Step 3: Please logon a different workstation, can the problem be reproduced
for this user?

Step 4: Please rerun the CEICW wizard to configure the IIS settings correct:

1. On the SBS 2003 Server open the Server Management console. Go to
Standard Management\To Do List.

2. Click the "Connect to the Internet" link.

3. Choose not to change the connection type and click Next. On the Firewall
page, select "Enable firewall" and click Next.

4. On the "Services Configuration" page, select all the items and then
click Next.

5. On the "Web Services Configuration" page, make sure "Allow access to the
entire Web site from the Internet" is selected. If you select "Allow access
to only the following Web site services from the Internet", make sure both
the "Outlook Web Access" and "Remote Web Workplace" items are selected.
Click Next.

6. On the "Web Server Certificate" page, choose to create a new Web server
certificate and then type the public FQDN that you will use to access OWA
(for example, if your public FQDN that you use to access the sites is
mail.domain.com, you should type mail.domain.com as the new certificate
name). If you already requested a certificate with the name
"mail.domain.com" from a third party CA, you can choose "Use a Web server
certificate from a trusted authority" and then import the certificate.

7. Go through the remaining steps.

If the problem persists help me collect the following information for
further research:

1. Screen shot when you see the URL.
2. Problematic user name and e-mail address.

Please send the information to v-robeli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with subject: OWA -
new email brings up strange URL.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.

<Hi folks.
<When any user using OWA clicks new email, the URL comes up:
<https://domain.com/exchange/pineridge/Drafts/?Cmd=new
<
<Email works fine but, I am curious as to where the name 'pineridge' comes
<from as it has no significance to our Company.
<Something to do with initial setup?
<Can this be fixed?

<Cheers.
