Hi People, I have installed ex2007 on a windows 2003 sp2 domain with exchange 2003 sp1 running parallel (that's the intention). I setup the exchange 2007 as a CCR with file share witness with, two Mailbox servers, and one edge server hosting HT,CA roles. All the servers where installed as RTM, then upgraded to SP1, and finally SP2, (I installed the RTM about a year ago and forgot about it due to other commitments); Service packs installed fine. I have setup the smtp send connector, to forward out our smarthost. checked that with telnet and, it could send email. Created an EAP Configured the Accepted Domains Setup account, logged on via OWA, sent test msg to current user, arrived in drafts, sent test msg to my personal domain account, again drafts, anything goes in drafts. Added <add key="PercentageDatabaseDiskSpaceUsedHighThreshold" value="90" /> to EdgeTransport.exe.config that did bugger all really. Ran Test-Mailflow on the Mailbox servers, failed Ran Test-Mailflow on the HTCA server, failed! Its not a mailbox server. Running out of things to try now, please help

Is there any form of firewall between the Hub Transport server and the CCR cluster? This is indicative of an issue with the RPCs which occur when mail gets picked up by the HT server and dealt with failing.Active Directory, 4th Edition - www.briandesmond.com/ad4/

Hi Brian,At this point in time, the firewall service is disabled on the two mailbox servers and the HubT and Client Access machine

I will work on those, just like to say thankyou for you help so farI have now uninstalled the product, i am going to attempt to go straight to exchange 2010 on a windows 2008 box

I hit a similar issue with one of my customers a few months ago, turned out it wasnt a server config issue but a client one instead. When you send a mail from OWA you get a popup with the spellchecker when you hit send, if your browser is set to block popups this gets automatically closed and the email window closes and the mail gets dumped in the drafts.

I hope to god that was not it Nick, I never checked that, but I did try it in both IE & FF to no avail, dont recall and popup blocking on ff but you never know.

hi , first check that all the exchange servers r running , try to restart the trusport service , if the problem still occur ... so u have low exchange preformance u need to increase the RAM
