Exchange 2007 / 2010 Search for and Delete Emails Containing “yoursearchtext”

Posted on by

KB ID 0000343

Problem

You have a nasty email that contains a virus or some offensive content and you want to delete ALL instances of it.

Solution

1. Log on as the domain administrator > Open the Exchange Command Shell.

2. First grant the correct rights to the administrator account.

This gives the Administrator FULL rights to ALL mailbox’s

[box]Get-mailbox -Database “Mailbox Database”| add-mailboxpermission -user administrator -AccessRights FullAccess[/box]

Note: this assumes your mailbox database is called “Mailbox Database”.

3. Then locate and delete the emails containing “yoursearchtext”.

[box]Get-Mailbox -Database “Mailbox Database” | Export-Mailbox -SubjectKeywords “yoursearchtext” -DeleteContent[/box]

Note: If you are unable to use the export-mailbox command then see here

HP Procurve – Trunking / Aggregating Ports

Setup an HP 1800-24G (J9028B) Switch

Problem

Essentially you can unbox this switch, plug it in and it will do what you want (unless you have VLANS, or trunks (port-channels)). Which is what my client had done, but I needed to get on the web console and have a look at what was going on, and there is NO CONSOLE socket on this unit at all.

Solution

1. Don’t bother looking in DHCP, it’s NOT set to DHCP by default. From the factory the switch will have the following IP address; 192.168.2.10 (255.255.255.0). So put yourself on the same network segment and connect to the switch via a normal network cable.

Note: Start > Run > ncpa.cpl will get you there.

2. Now open a browser window and connect to https://192.168.2.10 by default the password will be blank.

3. To change the IP address, navigate to System > IP Address > Set accordingly > Apply.

Note: Obviously this will kick you off, and you will need to change your IP address again to reconnect.

4. To change the password navigate to System > Password > change accordingly > Apply.
