Hi support, I have an issue regarding webmail address. When i write FQDN local address or using web address both shows wrong address in IE address bar and address converted to wrong address. See example below. If i write like this (inside local domain) : https://servername/ it shows wrong address like https://servername/mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/exchange and page cannot be displayed If i write like this (outside local domain) : https://mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/ it shows wrong address like https://mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/exchange and page cannot be displayed If i write like this (inside local domain) : https://servername/exchange then it shows Outlook Web Address login page correctly and same from outside if i write https://mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/exchange then it also shows the write web address. Question is what is wrong here and can i know directly access the login access page by writing directly to https://emailservername/ or https://mail.wmd-scandinvia.dk Exchange Server is Windows Server 2003 Sp2 Thanks in advance Regards Ahmed IT Applications Manager

Hi Have you done any http redirections in IIS? I suppose this is Exchange 2003? Jonas Andersson MCTS: Microsoft Exchange Server 2010, Configuration | MCITP: EMA | MCSE/MCSA Blog: http://www.testlabs.se/blog

Hi Ahmed, The problem is caused by the wrong URL redirection. Frirst try the following troubleshoot steps: 1. Go to exchange server, open IIS. 2. Expand to Web Sites->Default Web Sites. Right click Default Web Sites and choose properties. 3. Click Home Directory tab. Under 'the content for this resource should come from, click A redirection to a URL. 4. In the Redirect to box, type /exchange. If you are using Ex2007, type /owa. 5. Under The client will be sent to, click A directory below URL entered. 6. Stop and start the Default Web Site. Then trying to access the https://servername or https://mail.wmd-scandinavia.dk/ , what's result?

Hi both, First of all thanks for reply. Actually i did not used any IIS redirections under properties tab and the scenario is same as Thomas mentioned. When i talk to my colleague who setup this scenario up and i investigated little bit more the default.htm page under default location of IIS server on Exchange 2003, then i found he changed the default.htm file and used javascript to redirect page to local location. He had written like this https:/mail.xyz.com so what actually he made mistake was missing one slash. So now it is redirecting to right location. I have created another scenario here. If somebody tries to access this Web mail out side and inside so 2 scenarios should follow. But it seems to be below javascript code is not working for both at same time but only one at a time. <script language="javascript"> <!-- if(document.url="https://webmail/") // For local access, DNS name { window.location="https://servernamelocal/exchange" } else // For all other queries from outside window.location=https://mail.xyzwebsite.dk/exchange //--> </script> Both are pointing to local server. One request is coming from outside (not working internally due to policies) and other from locally. By using this only one scenario is working at a time but not boths. Due you guys have any idea how can i handle this that both should work.IT Applications Manager

Hi, You should use a double equal sign (==) instead of "=': if(document.url=="https://webmail/")
