Many have probably wished for the long-lost Start menu to return. The good news is that it is actually included, and perhaps the breakthrough in companies will now begin

I'll install the server right away... The download servers don't seem to be overloaded yet

Message Analyzer 1.1 available

Message Analyzer is the successor to Network Monitor. Do not misunderstand: Message Analyzer is not used to analyze mails, but to see what is happening on the line, similar to Network Monitor or Wireshark.

The big advantage of Message Analyzer is that it can decrypt encrypted connections if the private key is available. This makes Message Analyzer a great tool for error analyzers. Among other things, of course, also for mail problems via encrypted connections.

New Exchange Reporter versions

I have just updated the Exchange Reporter version for Exchange 2010 and Exchange 2013:

I have fixed two bugs:

  • Error in the error log if an ActiveSync device was never synchronized
  • Same value for sent and received volume

A small note: The size of the graphics in the report can be adjusted according to preference, simply search for the lines beginning with "new-cylinderchart" (bar charts) or "new-piechart" (pie charts) and change the first two values (width x height).

Exchange Reporter 2013 version 1.2 available

I have just uploaded version 1.2 of the Exchange Reporter. Version 1.2 fixes a bug in the calculation of mailboxes that are close to the send limit.

Further innovations:

Changed design of the graphics for the disk space statistics

Exchange Reporter

A new module has also been added: "easreport.ps1" lists inactive ActiveSync devices that have not been synchronized for more than 60 days.

If errors are found, I would be pleased if the errors are reported so that I can correct them.

New Exchange Report 2013 version (0.9)

The new Exchange Reporter 2013 version has just been released online. The most important new feature is the "redirectreport" module, which now displays mailboxes with redirects or forwards.

Minor errors have also been fixed (spelling mistakes and incorrect checking of the TEMP directory)

General: Customized design

Today FrankysWeb presents itself in a new design. The content area has become a little wider, so in future screenshots will be easier to recognize without having to enlarge them. In addition, FrankysWeb now also looks good on smartphones and tablets Smiley

Here is an old screenshot for comparison (R.I.P.):

Exchange 2007/2010/2013: New updates

New security updates for Exchange 2007, 2010 and 2013 were released yesterday. However, the update for Exchange 2013 was withdrawn today due to problems. Unfortunately, this seems to be happening more frequently recently. If you have already installed the update for Exchange 2013, you can find a workaround to fix the problems here:

I'll probably wait a little longer until I install the updates...

If you can't or don't want to wait, you can find the packages here:
