Syncing Exchange contacts to Microsoft Teams
Currently, only the default contact folder is synchronized to Microsoft Teams for mailboxes that are in the cloud. Does anyone know if custom contact folders will also be synchronized in the near future? Is there any information available about this in the roadmap?
Forcing Teams meeting reminders to go to a shared calendar
A workplace I'm assisting at has recently moved across from google workspace to Exchange and has lost the ability to replicate a workflow they were following on the previous system. Their preference is to use a shared calendar to store calendar reminders and teams meeting reminders for all employees, so that when certain people are absent, others are able to see what meetings they had and reschedule or stand in etc. The previous workflow went like this: Employee receives invite to teams meeting Employee accepts invite to teams meeting and the reminder that they will be present in this meeting is placed in the shared calendar, saying eg "Monday Meeting - email address removed for privacy reasons" All employees can now view that this person will be at this meeting at this time in form of calendar entry on shared calendar. Now that the workplace has moved to Exchange when accepting a teams meeting invitation via email the reminder is automatically placed in their personal calendar, no option to move it to the shared calendar. The personal calendars were also never a thing back on google workspace which has irritated many employees now that its there and is defaulting for all accepted meeting invitations. Is there a way to replicate this in teams? My only idea to fix this is having the teams meeting itself in the shared calendar, which would show who has accepted the meeting, however when creating a teams meeting there is no option to place it in a shared calendar, can this be automated?
"Share to Teams from Outlook" possible with mailbox on prem?
The situation in our company is that we're using an Exchange Hybrid setup with the mailboxes on prem. We are using one of the latest Outlook desktop clients (so that should be sufficient). The function is working for me on the outlook web client on my dev tenant just fine, but I don't see the outlook addin for our production tenant with the mailboxes on prem. Is that something that's not working? I don't see anything regarding that circumstances in the docs. Thanks in the advance.
amer.teams.ms to bypass external recipients tips enabled notification?
When sending emails to external recipients, in Exchange Online we have External Recipients Tips Enabled so users recognize that the emails going outside the org. With Microsoft Teams, email addresses are created as *.domain.com@amer.teams.ms or *.domain.com@apac.teams.ms. I believe these addresses cannot be changed to match one of our own domain names. The following recipient is outside your organization: *.domain.com@amer.teams.ms Is there a way to exclude those two domains from getting marked as external so the users aren't displayed the notification and aren't worried about the messages going outside the org. when they are told that they are staying within the org? Thanks.
Restriction in Exchange online
Hi Folks , A customer of mine who's a BPO would like to apply the below mentioned restrictions for his users on the mailbox and I'd like to get some clarity on this . 1. Users should have only read only access on their own user mailbox so that they can only see the mails which land in their inbox but they can't forward it , delete it or do any kind of actions except reading the mails . 2. A specific set of users other than the one's mentioned above should not be able to add any attachments to the emails while sending an email . 3. These restrictions should work on all the email clients as well as on OWA . So here's my question ... 1. Is it possible to set read only access on my own mailbox ? I've tried changing the permissions using PowerShell but still I'm not convinced by the fact that changing the permissions to read only would help as the user is the primary owner of his mailbox so would changing the permissions make any difference ? 2. For my 3rd point above , I'm applying the restrictions on the user's mailbox directly using remote powershell so I guess any email client should honor the restriction set at the mailbox isn't it ? Please advise cc TonyRedmondTeams calendar not syncing with exchange on-prem calendar
Hello, I have a problem with the calendar sync between exchange online/Teams for a customer. I configured Azure AD Connect with the hybrid option and users are synced to the cloud and licensed with O365 E3. I setup exchange hybrid on an exchange server 2016 CU11 with the new version of the Hybrid Wizard, ending with the OAuth error after the first run. So I configured OAuth manually with the docs.microsoft manual and calendar sync was working, for 1 day. At the next day it wasn't working and I couldn't get it running again since then, 3 weeks ago. I checked all OAuth config elements, reastablished them individually, startet the Hybrid Wizrad several times, always ending with the OAuth error. I tested with teh test-oauthconnectivity cmdlet in both directions which ends always successfull, restarted the server and services several times, checked the availability service and with the remote connectivity analyzer for free/busy and everything was successful but sync is still not working again. Can someone help me with this issue or has tipps to chekc further? Kind Regards JulianAdding user to MS Teams breaks email - Exchange 16 On Premises
Hi there, we're just starting out using a pretty standard Teams setup with a small number of users. We use Office 2016 and Exchange 2016. Our primary email accounts are flast@domain.com and we have first.last@domain.com as secondary. It seems that when we add them to teams as flast, they no longer can send or receive emails from that address; using first.last does seem to work. We then delete them from Teams, re-add them and the problem seems to go away. Has anyone else seen anything like this? Any ideas? Thanks for the help.
