Change History

Version 2.5.24 – Fixed problem in reports where the number of deleted items was not being reset between mailboxes.  Fixed problem on Exchange 2000 and 2003 where the store was not remounted after a compaction operation.  Added support option for Blackberry compactable zip file names called Strict File Names.

Version 2.5.23 - Added full support in ExchangeCompress Now! for Exchange 2007.  Fixed problem with possible Invalid use of Null error message in ExchangeCompress Now! when displaying the user mailboxes in the configuration screen.  Fixed problem in ExchangeCompress Now! where all mailboxes for an unlimited license were processed even if only some of the mailboxes were configured for processing.

Version 2.5.22 - Added full support in ExchangeCompress for Exchange 2007.

Version 2.0.21 – Fixed problem with negative numbers for space saved if a mailbox was > 2 GB after the mailbox processing had completed.  Fixed problem where in some case no change was shown in mailbox size when in fact the mailbox size had been decreased.

Version 2.0.20 – Added separate control for logging the ExchangeCompress Now! service and event sink.  Added separate log for ExchangeCompress Now! Processing.  Added tracking of space saved by ExchangeCompress and ExchangeCompress Now! to then Mailbox report.  Added tracking of space saved by ExchangeCompress Now! to the ExchangCompress Now! configuration screen.  Added mailbox locking logic to prevent 2 processes from updating the same mailbox at the same time.  ExchangeCompress Now! will defer any processing of a mailbox being processed by ExchangeCompress until ExchangeCompress unlocks the mailbox.  The mailbox locking does not effect Exchange or Outlook access.  Fixed crash on extended mapi call to get the mailbox size for near empty mailboxes.  We now use a CDO call for all mailboxes < 2GB.  Fixed to get Exchange Store size which was not always including the size of the .stm file correctly if the file name had the string .stm elsewhere in the path  Added better error handling for bad messages and attachments.  Added logic to skip all folders that contain contacts.  Added extra debugging information in debug trace log.  Changed how the special folder names are obtained, so all foreign languages should now be supported.  Changed the access method for mailboxes, which should eliminate mailbox access problems if the user name did not match the mailbox name.  Fixed some issues with scheduling that could cause a schedule to stop functioning.  Fixed problem when a schedule was renamed another copy of the schedule was created in the MS Task Scheduler.

Version 2.0.19 – Beta Release for ExchangeCompress 2 and ExchangeCompress Now! .  Added the following functionality to ExchangeCompress:

  • Real time support (ExchangeCompress Now!)
  • Mailbox Reporting
  • Delete Attachments option with rules – This option will clear all attachments found and replace them with a link to the path of the original file and a message saying that the attachment was deleted.
  • User defined rules - this option allow you to enter any valid VBA expression through the Enter Expression dialog.
  • Exclude Mailboxes – you can now identify a set of mailboxes to exclude in ExchangeCompress processing.

Version 1.0.26 - Fixed crash on extended mapi call to get the mailbox size for near empty mailboxes.  We now use a CDO call for all mailboxes < 2GB.  Fixed to get Exchange Store size which was not always including the size of the .stm file correctly if the file name had the string .stm elsewhere in the path  Added better error handling for bad messages and attachments.  Added logic to skip all folders that contain contacts.  Added extra debugging information in debug trace log.  Changed how the special folder names are obtained, so all foreign languages should now be supported.  Changed the access method for mailboxes, which should eliminate mailbox access problems if the user name did not match the mailbox name.

Version 1.0.25 - Added utility function to change the strings in HTML link stored attachments.  This function currently only supports the HTML Links not any of the other types.  Support for the other types will be added at a later date.  Added support for SSL encoding of HTML Link and HTML text stored attachments (https://).  Added support for German Language Exchange Installation. Other languages will be added for ExchangeCompress 2.0 or by customer request.

Version 1.0.24 - Added additional debugging and error checking to Find code to correct a problem with bad Exchange Stores.

Version 1.0.23 - Fixed problem with illegal HTML href characters (but legal file name characters) causing HTML links to not work properly.  Added Utility menu function to fix up invalid HTML links cause by this problem.  Fixed problem where program had to be restarted after registration or trial extension for key to take effect.  Fixed problem with under reporting attachments zipped in Analysis report if Delete Sent Attachments or Sent Items options used.

Version 1.0.22 - Changed Security Requirements Section in help.  The instructions to modify the Exchange Domain Servers group for Exchange 2003 Enterprise caused some problems with third party software that synchronized attachments to PDAs.  The new instructions do not modify any predefined Windows or Exchange groups.  Fixed totaling problem an Analyze mode when the Clear Sent Items option was selected.  Fixed problem where temporary files were not being deleted properly in Analyze mode if the zip file was larger than the original file and not to be used.  Fixed overflow error problem in reports that was causing 0 attachments to be zipped.

Version 1.0.21 - Fixed scheduling problem where specifying the number of hours to run caused the program to end after a few minutes rather that the specified time.  Fixed problem on Windows 2000 where specifying a Home Directory Path using a local drive such as C:\User1 could cause the attachment link to not be reachable on a users remote machine.  Code was added so this kind of path will be treated the same as where no Home Directory Path has been specified in Active Directory.  Fixed program error on Mailbox Filter browse where two users share the same mailbox.  Fixed problem with scheduler where any stop time specified other than 00:00 hours would cause the program to stop after 1 minute.  Changed all registry access to read-only except where registry is actually updated.

Version 1.0.20 - Fixed problem where only users in the Users container in the Active directory were being processed and displayed for the Mailbox Filter.  The entire domain will now be searched for users. The system mailbox is specifically excluded.  Changed licensing for Analyze function so it is unlimited with the registered version as well as the trial.

Version 1.0.19 - Corrected problem when recovery storage groups are used in Exchange 2003 causing the error CDOEXM is not supported on Recovery objects to come up.  Recovery storage groups are now skipped since CDO access to them is not supported.

Version 1.0.18 – Added Analyze function to run ExchangeCompress without updating to allow users to evaluate impact of changes without actually updating the Exchange stores.  Added support to filter mailboxes by mailbox name.  Added support to clear all attachments on sent items.  Correct bug with digitally signed e-mails.
