BoomboomExchange / ForeFront UAG – Publishing Exchange 2010 with UAG
Thanks!  This fixed an issue we were having with not being able to setup Blackberry BIS users to Exchange 2010 via UAG.  As soon as I set EWS authentication to Basic only everything worked like a charm.  Thank you.
  
Andrew DistadOffice 365 – Configure your Outlook account
One thing this is missing is the manual configuration of the incoming and outgoing mail servers. What are they? I can't set it up with out it, I'm not making a new email, I'm using an old one.

Benoit HAMETOffice 365 – How to synchronize Office 365 when you have multiple AD Forest
Hello JP

I'm sorry  but I will not answer here; this is a consulting stuff
The purpose of this post was to say there is a supported solution in case of multiple forest
  
JP JacobsOffice 365 – How to synchronize Office 365 when you have multiple AD Forest
Hi Benoit,

Great article on this topic.

Do you need a FIM server in every source forest if you want to deploy this ? And do you also need a FIM server in your target (technical forest) ?

Thank you,
JP, Belgium
  
Benoit HAMETOffice 365 – Enable multilingual interface on SharePoint sites
No, this doesn't apply to public facing site; this one is very specific
  
Howard ParrOffice 365 – Enable multilingual interface on SharePoint sites
Does this also extend to the Public facing website or only to the Team website and other SpharePoint interfaces?
  
mestremoeOffice 365 – Receive your mails from other addresses on Exchange Online
In my experience if you send an email through a connected account, office 365 will send it through its own SMTP, therefore the recipient will see something like: soandso.com on behalf of connectedaccount.com in the From field.

This wouldn´t happen if we were able to setup SMTP for each connected account like we can in GMail.

As far as I know it cannot be done yet... if you know anything let me know!

Cheers.

Hi Benoit

It appears that the email address is not working.
I have tried from 2 different accounts.

CarolChiOffice 365 – New features are coming
A couple of months ago I opened an Office 365 P1 plan, mainly for test and demo purposes. I delegated my DNS completely to Microsoft;  I lost the DNSSEC setting that I had previously had at GoDaddy. I posted a question and was told that I have to hand over my DNS to Microsoft, and DNSSEC is somewhere in the future.
Last week I setup another Office 365 company – Plan P1 no longer exists. I can choose Exchange, Lync, Sharepoint, and so on.  Good I thought, more granularity, more flexibility. However I no longer have to transfer my DNS management to Microsoft, but I have to set up a lot of records with my registrar.
BAD I think, now I am managing my own DNS entries at Godaddy, based on a complex set of instructions on a website somewhere. When the DNS messes up, who do I turn to?
Plan P1 – easy – Microsoft – I completely delegated my DNS to Microsoft.
Plan Exchange Online – don't really know, perhaps MS instructions were wrong. Perhaps I copied them wrong, perhaps Godaddy did something wrong too. And if I put in DNSSEC? will it all stop working? No idea, and I don't think I should have to be testing this
Office365 can only work for small businesses if Microsoft provide full service. It is doomed if a small business user has to understand DNS, DNSSEC and SRV records.

Hello Rene

Yes I tried various time to have it but until few days there was or nothing (no value) or an error saying the Web Analytics feature has to be enabled.
Office 365 team should communicate more about introduced features

Interesting, I didn't even notice that it wasn't available as I've never tried to access it before. Did so yesterday and it worked, but didn't really think much about it.
  
Benoit HAMETOffice 365 – BlackBerry service for Office 365 Beta now available
Hello

Blackberry Business Cloud Service is/will be available only for Office 365 Enterprise Plan
  
DonlinchOffice 365 – BlackBerry service for Office 365 Beta now available
Sadly I don't see anything about Blackberry Business Cloud Service - it's just the same old message for me

 ie

You can use a variety of mobile phones with Microsoft Office 365 for professionals and small businesses. After you configure the phone’s email settings, you can send and receive Office 365 email, and—if your mobile phone supports it—access calendar and contacts information. Among the mobile phones that can access Office 365 are Windows Phone, Apple iPhone, Android phones, and BlackBerry® devices.
Note
For BlackBerry devices, when you use Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, you will only be able to send and receive email.

To set up email on your phone, go to the Mobile Phone Setup wizard to locate the directions specific to your phone, and then follow the directions for configuring your phone to work with Office 365.
  
Francois PienaarSharePoint 2010 – Auto configure the Outlook Web Access webparts
How about you want to have an administrator add the web part to the landing page of the intranet.  Can you put a "placeholder" property for "mailbox name" so that the mailbox will be taken from the logged in user?
  
JackOffice 365 – Use Office 365 for email hosting only
You will have to enter your own domain name where it is unreadable.
  
Benoit HAMETOffice 365 – Assign an alias to a user
Hello Michael

Alias is only used to receive email from another email address on your domain
You can’t use it as ‘send as’; only the default email address is used when sending email

If you want to send and receive from a different email address, you have to use a distribution list and grant your user account the ‘send on behalf’ right
  
JABLONSKIOffice 365 – Assign an alias to a user
Hello,
How can I answer from the ALIAS to an email so the email looks like it has been send from the Alias and not the user?
Many thanks

Benoit,

Can you provide the MX record detail for your blog entry titled "Office 365 – Use Office 365 for email hosting only".  The information looks scratched out and unreadable.

Thansk

YogiOffice 365 – Delegated administration right levels
I am seeing the same thing as Geert. I only have the option to make the user an administor by choosing "yes" or "no." I don't see any option for choosing more granular roles. I am using the P1 account. Is that why?
