Exchange 2007 Mailbox Size Powershell Form Script version 2

I've created Version 3 of the script now that gets around having to use EWS

[Updated 17-5-1007 fixed URL bug]


A while back I posted version 1 of this script and a few people have made me aware lately that there are a few problems with the logic I used in this script. The first problem with this script is that it expects the CAS (Client Access Role) and the Mailbox role to be on the same server which may be true if your poor like me but for a lot of large deployments, roles will be split out onto different servers. So the method I’ve used will fail if this is the case because Exchange Web Services is part of the CAS role.

To solve this problem in version 2 I’ve used the Autodiscovery service which you can query with the email address of the user you want to access and Autodiscovery will then return the URL to use for EWS for this user. To make an autodicovery request you first need to find the service connection point for the Auto discovery service (the url to use in your request). The easy way to get this info is to use the Get-ClientAccessServer cmdlet eg

[array]$SCPCurrent = Get-ClientAccessServer

this will return an array that contains one or more entries from the CAS servers in your Exchange Organization and then you can pull the SCP from the first entry in the array.

$strRootURI = $SCPCurrent[0].AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri.absoluteuri

Another method to get the SCP is just to query Active Directory directly via LDAP. Once you have the SCP entry all you need to do is then send a XML formatted request to the Autodiscovery service and then you should be able to parse the EWS url from the ASUrl property in the response

Eg this is the code section that was added to handle autodisco

## AutoDisco for EWS
[array]$SCPCurrent = Get-ClientAccessServer
$autodiscoResponse = "<Autodiscover xmlns=`"http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/outlook/requestschema/2006`">"
`
+ " <Request>"`
+ " <EMailAddress>" + $siSIDToSearch.WindowsEmailAddress + "</EMailAddress>"`
+ " <AcceptableResponseSchema>http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/outlook/responseschema/2006a</AcceptableResponseSchema>"`
+ " </Request>"`
+ "</Autodiscover>"
$strRootURI = $SCPCurrent[0].AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri.absoluteuri
$WDRequest = [System.Net.WebRequest]::Create($strRootURI)
$WDRequest.ContentType = "text/xml"
$WDRequest.Headers.Add("Translate", "F")
$WDRequest.Method = "Post"
$WDRequest.UseDefaultCredentials = $True
$bytes = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($autodiscoResponse)
$WDRequest.ContentLength = $bytes.Length
$RequestStream = $WDRequest.GetRequestStream()
$RequestStream.Write($bytes, 0, $bytes.Length)
$RequestStream.Close()
$WDResponse = $WDRequest.GetResponse()
$ResponseStream = $WDResponse.GetResponseStream()
$ResponseXmlDoc = new-object System.Xml.XmlDocument
$ResponseXmlDoc.Load($ResponseStream)
$EWSNodes = @($ResponseXmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("ASUrl"))
if ($EWSNodes.length -ne 0){
$ewsURL = $EWSNodes[0].'#text'
}

Another problem with this script revolves around authentication by default I’ve used impersonation as a method of accessing people’s mailboxes instead of delegation which was preferable because of the misuse that often happens with delegated accounts. But if you have resource mailboxes or any other disabled mailboxes impersonation will fail because you can’t impersonate a disabled account. So what I needed to do was add some more logic into to first detect if the account was disabled and if it was to change the request so instead of using impersonation that code dropped back to using delegation. This involved changing the SOAP request that was submitted. Delegation is described in the SDK here .

For delegation to work you must have given the account that the script is running under rights to the mailboxes in question. The Exchange Management Shell makes this pretty easy for instance to assign an account delegate access to every Room Mailbox you could use something like

get-user -recipienttypedetails 'RoomMailbox' | foreach-object {

Add-MailboxPermission $_.Identity -AccessRights FullAccess -user username

}

For details on how the rest of the code works please have a look at the previous post (link at the top of this post)

Testing and Sending email via SMTP using Opportunistic TLS and oAuth in Office365 with PowerShell

As well as EWS and Remote PowerShell (RPS) other mail protocols POP3, IMAP and SMTP have had OAuth authentication enabled in Exchange Online (Official announcement here ). A while ago I created  this script that used Opportunistic TLS to perform a Telnet style test against a SMTP server using SMTP AUTH. Now that oAuth authentication has been enabled in office365 I've updated this script to be able to use oAuth instead of SMTP Auth to test against Office365. I've also included a function to actually send a Message. Token Acquisition  To Send a Mail using oAuth you first need to get an Access token from Azure AD there are plenty of ways of doing this in PowerShell. You could use a library like MSAL or ADAL (just google your favoured method) or use a library less approach which I've included with this script . Whatever way you do this you need to make sure that your application registration  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/develop/quickstart-register-

How to test SMTP using Opportunistic TLS with Powershell and grab the public certificate a SMTP server is using

Most email services these day employ Opportunistic TLS when trying to send Messages which means that wherever possible the Messages will be encrypted rather then the plain text legacy of SMTP.  This method was defined in RFC 3207 "SMTP Service Extension for Secure SMTP over Transport Layer Security" and  there's a quite a good explanation of Opportunistic TLS on Wikipedia  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opportunistic_TLS .  This is used for both Server to Server (eg MTA to MTA) and Client to server (Eg a Message client like Outlook which acts as a MSA) the later being generally Authenticated. Basically it allows you to have a normal plain text SMTP conversation that is then upgraded to TLS using the STARTTLS verb. Not all servers will support this verb so if its not supported then a message is just sent as Plain text. TLS relies on PKI certificates and the administrative issue s that come around certificate management like expired certificates which is why I wrote th

The MailboxConcurrency limit and using Batching in the Microsoft Graph API

If your getting an error such as Application is over its MailboxConcurrency limit while using the Microsoft Graph API this post may help you understand why. Background   The Mailbox  concurrency limit when your using the Graph API is 4 as per https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/throttling#outlook-service-limits . This is evaluated for each app ID and mailbox combination so this means you can have different apps running under the same credentials and the poor behavior of one won't cause the other to be throttled. If you compared that to EWS you could have up to 27 concurrent connections but they are shared across all apps on a first come first served basis. Batching Batching in the Graph API is a way of combining multiple requests into a single HTTP request. Batching in the Exchange Mail API's EWS and MAPI has been around for a long time and its common, for email Apps to process large numbers of smaller items for a variety of reasons.  Batching in the Graph is limited to a m
