Outlook 2007 and my 1and1.com Exchange Account...

Hi
Me a new bee in exchange server. just configured exchange server 2007 working properly from internal network through outlook 2003
Please give some guidance how I can accesses trough internet explorer to my email server via ISA 2006.
What address I have to give in browser? Were I have enable OWA
Nazism

well they haven't done anything about the logon prompt issue yet... stupid 1&1

btw sorry jame for using your blog as a 1&1 soapbox!

HOW DO I STOP THE LOGON PROMPT FROM APPEARING!?!/

HOW DO I STOP THE LOGON PROMPT FROM APPEARING!?!/

Is anyone having trouble sending and receiving email to non-Exchange users outside 1and1? I'm having trouble, but they deny any fault.

I just wanted to thank everyone for this information. For the record it took a few suggestions to make it work:

Importing the .prf file using the command line as suggested

using exchange\exxxxxx as the username in the prompt

Now, I am worried about some of the comments I've read. I was planning on using this service to take some load off myself and migrate about 10 users to this Exchange setup. I'll have to test it all on my own before making the final decision.

I'd also like to know when 1and1, at least in the UK, will cough up Exchange 2007... I NEED this for HTML email on my Windows Mobile device (and WANT it for the new web interface!) But 1&1 are cagey about when they will actually come up with it, getting:

"We apologize for the incorrect information, about the exchange server 2007, actually the said upgrade is still on going there are some exchange server that already been upgraded but for the time frame we have no updates yet from our higher department when this will be implemented."

Has anyone else emailed them and gotten more sense out of them about Exchange 07?

1and1 is gay.
Run. Run away as fast as you can.
(unless you love talking to Indians reading from an out of date and useless instruction manual)

Also, anyone have any tips on how to avoid that annoying logon prompt every time you start outlook, and to get it to just remember your password!!! please?

Anyone know when Exchange 2007 will be unrolled by 1and1? I'm getting tired of waiting for things like server-side RSS, OVA, categories, good server-search, pop-blocker-awareness-in-OWA, HTML email from my windows mobile device, remote wipe from owa etc etc etc... the benefits of Exchnage 07 are so numerous and 1and1 still haven't got their act together to do them!

Anyone know when 1and1 will finally upgrade to exchange server 2007. I use windows mobile and it will offer HTML formatted email messages once they upgrade to exchange 2007, currently vm6 requires exchange 2007 to get this feature to work.

Its interesting that exchange.1and1.com does not support the outlook 2007 because I have downloaded from them. I got it from the admin control panel. They provide no sort warnings to say do not download because it will not work since it overwrote my outlook 2003. Go figure.

Hello everyone. 1and1.com is useless and I am getting ready to pull my hair out over this one. Up until 11 a.m. today, my exchange throught 1and1.com was woking fine. I get back home and my outlook 2007 states I am disconnected from exchange and I get the following error:

Task 'Microsoft Exchange - Sending' reported error (0x80040115) : 'The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action.'

I haven't changed any settings yet I still cannot connect to exchange. 1and1 needed a screenshot because they are clueless as usual and blam my internet provider Knology.

Is this happening to anyone else and does anyone have any ideas?

After working successfully for a year 1and1 has stopped doing anything well on the exhange server side. My Outlook is disconnected regularly during the day, often locking up the program. My BlackBerry online access via Verizon Wireless is timed out constantly to the point that I have not had a connection for 2 weeks.

I spent 5 days in circular emails with "tech support" people who I was certain did not know how to use a computer. It finally got upgraded to a level 2 type who after 5 days blamed everybody under the sun including Microsoft, BlackBerry and Verizon Wirelss and, of course, me who had obviously been constantly changing my login password but did not realize I was doing so. About the only people they did not blame was the Bush Administration.

I am switching to aitcom.net when I have a bit of time to do so. 1and1 is useless in my book!

Thanks very much for posting your experience getting Outlook 2k7 to work with 1and1's setup.bat file. Once I removed the double quotes that surrounded the .prf file, and changed the NTB... to Exchange/userid (seems like I entered userid/password several times) it configured just fine. You'd think they'd have this down better by now. In any case, thanks.

Thanks peeps; that worked fine for me. I'm running Vista Ultimate and Outlook 2007. I deleted all of the profiles from mail control panel and run the import PRF command line.

I used Jame's suggestion with all the names properly setup:

c:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12>Outlook.exe /importprf "C:\e123456789.prf"

It was not working for me but then i did something and it worked

After you import the profile. Run outlook
The login box should popup with something like

ntxbeus01\eXXXXXXXX

replace that with

exchange\eXXXXXXXX

and type in your password.

Just had to do it from a fresh Vista and Outlook 2007/12 installation. It may help to provide the full path to the Outlook executable:

Example:
“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Outlook.exe ” /importprf “C:\Users\[username]\Desktop\[filename].prf”

-- jame healy

Go to your mail settings, in control panels, delete all the profiles in there, then run the command line to import the prf.

job done!

worked for me on outlook 2007 running vista...

I've tried the PRF command line fix as outlined about. All that happens is Outlook 2007 opens, nothing more.

Except one time, it cleaned out all my exsisting account settings and added another set of personal folders.

I'd be happy to hear any ideas of what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you for any time you may give to help me!

"UPDATE: It turns out that when you use the full production release of Outlook 2007 it works fine."

Have you tried this? I have a full production copy that I just got but I can't get it to connect to exchange.1and1.com... and the prf file doesnt work either (running Vista) do you know how to resolve the issue? Thanks
