CRM 2013: Unsupported Email Server Error when creating Email Server Profile

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 50

I am using CRM 2013 online and am trying to connect to Exchange 2013 Server (on Rackspace) using the CRM Email Router. I was able to install and configure the email router fine on a separate server. I created an Exchange Incoming Configuration profile using my Exchange credentials and was able to create an outgoing SMTP Configuration profile. I set up the Deployment, was able to Load the Users. I had successful Incoming and Outgoing tests.

However, my problem is when I go back to the CRM to try and configure an Email Server profile using the same connections to my Exchange server, I am getting an "Unsupported Email Server" error. I am having trouble figuring out how to configure the Email Server Profile and the mailboxes in CRM itself. For one, I don't understand why I need to connect to my Exchange server through CRM if the Router is supposed to be doing this? If this is the case, should I somehow be using the Email Server Profile to connect to the server where my Email Router is sitting on? If so how do I do this?

Here is my error message trying to save an Exchange Server Profile using the same credentials as I used in the successful Email Router configuration: 

Unhandled Exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]: The email server isn't supported.Detail:

    Hello,

    I think you are bit confused about email tracking system. Basically, we can either go for Email router OR Server side sync (i.e. Connecting to Exchange from CRM Itself)

    Once you configure your Email router you don't need to go into CRM-> "Email Configuration" part. As Email router do the same tasks by itself.

    One more thing, your environment (CRM Online + Exchange (On Rackspace i.e. OnPremise) doesn't support CRM Server side sync (Connecting to Exchange from CRM Itself) , as this comes under a hybrid scenario. You  can get more idea about supported conflagrations from link below:

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../dn531050.aspx

    Once you set Email router you need to do some settings in CRM -> Settings -> System Setting.

    Please let me know if you want more guidance on Email router configuration part. More on, you can take help from MS references available at:

    msdn.microsoft.com/.../hh533641.aspx

    For your below statements:

    For one, I don't understand why I need to connect to my Exchange server through CRM if the Router is supposed to be doing this? If this is the case, should I somehow be using the Email Server Profile to connect to the server where my Email Router is sitting on? If so how do I do this?

    Just leave this part, as of my knowledge it is all misinterpretation.

    Ah, that makes complete sense. I configured email processing to "Process Email Using" the CRM Email Router and everything is working.

    Now I realize that I do not need to set up an Email Server Profile. However, does the Email Router leverage the Mailbox entity in the CRM? Or are mailboxes applicable to Server Side Synchronization?

    Its great to see you got it resolved and now cleared it conceptually as well :)

    About your query:

    No Mailbox Entity under Settings->Email Configuration deals with Server-side sync. So if you have opted for Email router then you don't have to worry about 'Settings->Email Configuration' part at all.

    Hi,

    I am getting error while trying to add Rackspace webmail server profile. I tried adding it as POP3/SMTP server profile with following details.

    Incoming server: secure.emailsrvr.com Port: 995

    Outgoing Server: secure.emailsrvr.com Port: 485

    Getting following error.

    Unhandled Exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]: The email server isn't supported.Detail:

    <InnerFault i:nil="true" />
    <OriginalException i:nil="true" />
    <TraceText i:nil="true" />
    </OrganizationServiceFault>

    I also tried adding with below alternate settings provided in Rackspace site (support.rackspace.com/.../rackspace-email-and-hosted-exchange-settings) as well and still getting the same error.

    Incoming server: pop.emailsrvr.com Port: 110

    Outgoing Server: smtp.emailsrvr.com Port: 2525

    Can someone help me on this?
