By default, NDR (5.4.4) of an email sent to a user with non-existent domain is sent to postmaster's mailbox. If you want your users to get NDR when they send email to a wrong email address (domain in this case), you need to remove 5.4.4 code from Transport Configuration. In Exchange 2010: go to Organization > Hub transport > Global settings > Transport settings remove code 5.4.4 from the list In Exchange 2013/16 Get-transportConfig to check settings Find GenerateCopyOfDSNFor and the codes (if 5.4.4 is on the list) Example: {5.4.8, 5.4.4 , 5.4.6, 5.2.4, 5.2.0, 5.1.4} Copy ALL codes (from bracket to bracket) Paste into Notepad Remove 5.4.4 from the list (remove 5.4.4, ) Set-transportConfig -GenerateCopyOfDSNFor "5.4.8, 5.4.6, 5.2.4, 5.2.0, 5.1.4" Users will get NDR immediately.

©  Unknown I’ve been seeing the above picture lately (not mine © is unknown). Many people shared it and whenever I saw it I was surprised how naïve it looked in a way. Why? Because of uncertainty. Moving your IT away from the company’s premises is double edged sword. As from the above picture, cloud computing indeed saves you lots of ongoing costs but let’s take a dive into what your costs can look like if you live in an unstable environment. Many countries’ economies suffered from year 2007 on, suffering which started as a real estate balloon boom in USA and was followed by collapse of many European economies. Globalisation at a glance, where a boom in USA made many across the globe go down the same path. Many companies went down, disappeared, divided, sold their business etc. Let us be one of the troubled companies. Every single one of us first tries to cut down the expenses when in financial trouble. Right? We see the problems arising, sales are low, revenue is l...

If you find yourself in a situation where you need to restore your Mac from a Synology NAS, you will find out pretty soon after you enter the recovery mode, that backup disk is not visible in recovery window. Steps need to be executed in order Recovery process to find NAS. Best practise is to name Time Machine shared folder on Synology without spaces. Second, if you are using a password with spaces, which I strongly suggest from security point of view, always put it between ' ' example: 'This is my password'. Enter the OS X recovery mode by holding Command +R (when Mac restarts and display is grey) When window with options is presented, select Utilities from the bar and select Terminal In Terminal use following commands: Cd /Volumes ls /la Create a folder to mount Synology to by typing mkdir synology Now mount your NAS by entering following command mount -t afp afp://admin:password@10.10.10.11/TimeMachine synology Where admin is your username wit...

I was using Apple Safari on Mac OS X Yosemite and later on El Capitan just fine when suddenly one day I couldn't search from Safari's address bar. My search engine provider was Google but even changing the provider in Safari's preferences did not resolve the problem. The text I entered stood there and nothing happened. It looked like Safari froze. Other browsers like Firefox and Chrome were working just fine, which was telling me it is not DNS at least network wise. Then I found out Safari prefetches DNS. In terminal you just write: defaults write com.apple.safari WebKitDNSPrefetchingEnabled -boolean false This command disables DNS prefetching. If this solves your problem then this is where you need to troubleshoot. Something in connection with your router and DNS is not OK. Photo of stalled Safari
