import photos to be used in exchange

[rmcguire80]

I have followed the below link:

http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2010/03/10/3409495.aspx

and have ran the listed script in our exchange management shell for one of our users but their photo isn't showing up when they send me an email is there any thing else which needs to be checked for this to work?

The ThumbnailPhoto properties is checked to replicate to the Global Catalog as well

ok, the photo is showing now when I hover over the user before sending an email but how do I get it to show on the social networking section on a received email from this user?

ok, I see I need to update my offline address book and run the script listed here....but where do I run this?

You would run these from escalated Exchange PowerShell wherever you have the Exchange 2010 management tools loaded.

And you'd need to make sure that the Migration role was already assigned to Organization Managment role, which I think it is.

where do I check to see that the migration role was already assigned to Organization Management Role

Try to use the command. If you can't, it will tell you that it doesn't know that command. That would mean the role hasn't been assigned.

ok when I run

Get-ManagementRole -cmdlet Import-RecipientDataProperty

I get Name: Migration and RoleType: Migration



The photos are showing when I hover over the users name in the email message but not in the Social Networking section, unless I turn off cached exchange mode

Did you update the OAB? After udating did you try manually downloading the new OAB in Outlook?

I hope that helps.
