I have a Microsoft Exchange account through my college, and my mailbox is very close to full. I'd like to download the messages to my local machine and archive them so that I can access them later if needed.
It seems to me that I should do something using POP3, but I have no idea where to start.
Note: I am currently using Ubuntu 11.04, but I can boot into Win7 if necessary.
Use Outlook to connect to the mailbox and either expliiclty copy messages to a PST file or use AutoArchive feature to move the old message to an archive PST file.
There is a free product called MailStore that should do the trick. Find it at http://www.mailstore.com

My company is no longer supporting our Linux mail server (all will be handled by gmail).
Over the years I've run many mail clients on the Linux server: elm, alpine, squirrelMail, roundCube. My most recent client has been RoundCube.
Ideally I'd like Thunderbird to import the most current folders from RoundCube; these appear to me to be inside Maildir/ (with deeper directories like .saved-mailed, etc). But I also have Mail/ (which alpine appears to reference).
But upon adding this account to Thunderbird, some mix of folders is presented to me: not all from Maildir/ and not all from Mail/...in fact no 'new' Roundcube folders are presented.
Where does Thunderbird search on a linux mail server to 'subscribe' folders? And how can I access this location to force the subscription of the folders I actually want?
I gave up trying to determine where Thunderbird (Tb) searches for mail.
Instead I copied all Roundcube email in Maildir/ to my local machine and then used the code here
https://gist.github.com/lftbrts/249f034a439d3eb2e008f73506cacc2d
to convert that email to mbox format.
Then I copied all that converted email to Tb's 'Local Folders' directory; Tb was able to load all the converted folders and then I 'dragged' them (using Tb) to the synced Gmail account.
So the above named coded saved the day!
I have a requirement to monitor a particular java string in a logfile whose name changes with date, for ex. D:\Logs\logfile-DDMMYYYY.log. I want to get a alert if this string is detected in the log. Can someone help me that?
Regards,
Script is your best way for accomplish that, if it is an linux machine you can wrote a perl\bash script. if you need to monitor Windows machine you can use VBScript.
If you prefer not dealing with scripts, you can use NiCE Excellnet & Free Log File Monitoring MP: http://www.nice.de/log-file-monitoring-scom-nice-logfile-mp/ But i don't sure if theirs mp supports monitoring wildcards log file names.
SCOM can monitor log files dynamically. You should monitor log directory D:\Logs with log file pattern logfile-????????.log.
When trying to configure the TFS 2010 backup using the TFS Power Tools I kept running into teh following error message:
Account TFS\tfsadmin failed to create backups using path \\tfs-xxxxxxx.local\TFSBackups
The strange thin is that TFS\TFSAdmin has full permissions on both share and file system and that the share path doesn't contain any spaces (thanks for MSDN forums for pointing that out).
I tried backing up through the SQL Server Management Studio, and sure, there the backups fail too.
It turns out that while the backup job is started using the account specified in the Create Backup Wizard of the TFS Power Tools, SQL Server will try to write the files to the share using its own service account.
So in addition to whomever needs access to the share, you need to add the service account running SQL Server to that share as well. In this case it was running under NETWORK SERVICE, so adding MACHINENAME$ to the share's list of permitted users did wonders.
We have an overweight an bloated email account on Exchange 2007 running on a SBS 2008 which needs emptying, but not deleting. unfortunately there was no monitoring in place and now it's slowing the entire network down (another long story)...
What would be the easiest and most efficient way to remove all emails from the offending email account please?
Thanks
You need to grant access and setup shell scripts in Exchange Management Shell. Just use these shell commands to make your job easier.

One of the drives on my server recently gave out and corrupted the OS. I was able to restore all the files, but now I have a backup drive with just the file system; not bootable. I'm setting up a new server now, and need to setup the old cron jobs. Is there a way to look through the file structure to see all cron jobs that were setup on the old server? Server was CentOS, not sure of version. Thanks in advance!
Crontabs belonging to individual users should be found in
/var/spool/cron/##USERNAME##
Whereas the server-wide crontab should be in
/etc/crontab
