Here the problem is with your email addresses. Do you have a GAL hosting environment? If so, it is not supported! The number of EAP exceeds 100 in your case.Ref to: http://blogs.msdn.com/dgoldman/archive/2010/01/06/exchange-2010-address-list-segregation-as-of-now-is-100-unsupported.aspxYou need to remove the hosting and migrate.Cheers!

Hello lazyadminhere, I'm not sure what you are referring to with "GAL Hosting Environment". We're not in a hosted exchange scenario and we're not trying to do address list segregation. Wat we do have is a publishing company running on E2K3 for the moment with a little over 30 address policies (because of all of their publications/brands). CAS en HT roles have been set up, the MBX role fails to install because of the error provided by KillerBe above. The error refers to "subfilters", which I believe is referring to an individual "(attribute=value)" LDAP statement based on the explanation in this Kb-article: (&(USNChanged>=xxx)(uSNChanged<=xxx)((objectClass=*))) The (objectCategory=user) attribute and the (extensionAttribute5=0001) attribute are included in this filter. These attributes are called subfilters. Each subfilter is counted as one filter. Hence we counted the individual statements and ended with just under 400 of those equations (which is under the limit of 500 subfilters for E2K3 mentioned in the same KB). Cleaning up is not an option for the customer. Would it make a difference if we upgraded the EAP to OPATH before installing the MBX role? Any other ideas? Our project is unable to progress because of this. PS I'm a colleague of Killerbe http://blog.koenvermoesen.be

Final update, has been comfirmed by Micrsosoft yesterday (as posted by KillerBe on Pro-Exchange forum): The problem is indeed caused by the recipient policies as we suspected from the start. The default policy has 113 "EnabledEmailAddressTemplates" configured and that is causing the issue (according to MS). Exchange Server 2010 is configured with a limit of 100, and is failing because more than 100 EnabledEmailAddressTemplates have been configured in the default policy. Microsoft recommends of removing these EnabledEmailAddressTemplates to reduce the number to be less than 100. The limit of 100 EnabledEmailAddressTemplates will be removed in Exchange 2010 SP1 or SP1 Rollup 1. http://blog.koenvermoesen.be

Thanks for your feedback. It really would be helpful to who may meet the same issue. :) Regards, Xiu
