Sure Mailbox
-
There is a mailbox called Sure on the Exchange Server for something in our company with the acronym S.U.R.E..
Whenever I go to add the mailbox, it gives me an error that it can't be found, and prompts me to pick it out of the list. It's always there on the list. Anyone know why that happens?

Have you tried rebooting? Hold the power button for about 3 seconds, then unplug the computer and count to 30, then plug it back in.
-
Have you tried holding down ALT while pressing F4? Or may be check line 42 of the source-code?

Hold down Command (the closed-Apple key) and Option while rebooting to rebuild your "Desktop File."

Nice one.
-
Install Linux.
-
Try turning off your router, your modem, and your computer. Now, turn off your air conditioning, your lights, and your water heater. Unplug your microwave, and defrost your refridgerator.
Cancel your garbage service, renounce your citizenship, and yank out your phone.

Have you tried using "B" instead of "C?"
-
Uninstall, then reinstall TCP/IP.
-
The mailbox isn't associated with a user name. Create a user named SURE, full name 'Sure I. Exist', and associate that user account with the relevent e-mail. The SURE user must have full admin rights to all systems, and the password MUST be 'hackme'.

Have you tried Javascript?

Have you tried wearing tinfoil hats? Usually solves my exchange problems. If it fails the government is onto you. Quick to the batmobile!

You need to reboot the Internet.
-
Reboot the S.U.R.E. project and give it a different name. Better yet, replace them with Linux.
-
rename to maybe or perhaps and it should work again.
-
you don't have the right level of access.
-
I thought this was Exchange, not Access.
-
Is it plugged in?
Maybe the power cable was installed backwards.
You should try the powered hub (bottom).

Replace Exchange with Lotus Notes. >-D

Then, replace Lotus Notes with an older version of Exchange.

Replacing Lotus Notes is an upgrade. It doesn't really matter what you replace it with.

What if I replace it with a large yam?

Despite the large yam's non-standard mail interface, at least it's high in vitamin C and dietary fiber. Advantage, yam, I think.What if I replace it with a large yam?

The yam could not possibly be worse at delivering email than Lotus Notes. And it's significantly easier to use.

If you showed that to one of the die-hard Notes admins, they'd be like:
"Notes is just as good as a yam, you just need to give your users long and intensive training sessions so they know how to use it without screwing it up. And Notes is more than an email client, it has all kinds of database-backed applications! Oh but I guess you use the yam because you love Microsoft so much."

Truer words were never spoken. You could replace Notes with a system of fluid-filled bladders and it would be an upgrade. So would 3x5 cards delivered via diseased, incontinent pigeons. I could go on, but you get the drift.

B, you made my day. Thanks!!
You must be a regular visitor on ihatelotusnotes.com, because that's pretty much exactly their "defense":
1. It's more than email
2. Get training
3. Upgrade to the latest version
I posted a lengthy, detailed list of some of the WTFiest Notes behaviors there (since a lot of the posts are of the "Notes is slow" and "Notes is bad" variety). So far, the best response from a Notes Fanboi was something like this (summarized):
"Ha ha! You're old. I don't have time to read your diatribe. SQL Server sucks. Notes is EVERTHINGWARE!"
I'm beginning to hate Notes apologists as much as Notes itself. Fucking minions.

Believe it or not, I've had that same debate several times on IBM's own support boards. Unlike most Notes admins (which I sadly was at the time), I had no qualms about holding IBM responsible for it's most obvious bugs.
The worst part is, even only bothering with bugs that could lead to data loss, I still posted there something like once a week... If I had bothered with usability bugs, I'd have been posting them three times a day.
I always felt sorry for the Notes die-hards. They attached their career to this bloated piece if shit, and they're too dim or too incompetent to move on. That's like spending your whole career writing MUMPS code. Deep down, they must know Notes sucks.

That would work nicely, because one of our Notes admins is a fat man.
