Are they missing the domain part ?

Was this post helpful? thumb_up thumb_down

in the error log it doesn't show the domain part

Was this post helpful? thumb_up thumb_down

Checked the domain part that's true not present.

If passwords were changed recently then mobile phone users may still be using the old password.

Look in the Activesync IIS log normally C:\inetpub\logs\LogFiles\W3SVC1

You can check the following areas:

Control Panel\Credential Manager.

Any mapped drives that have use the "with credentials" option (just disconnect them all and reconnect them).

Check any services that you may have set up under your login that may contain a password.

Did you checked out IIS logs on your Exchange server?

You can use Microsoft Lockout status tool for getting the information when the User account got locked (Date and time).

Apart from this you will also get information like on which DC the account got locked , How many bad passwords, AD site, Etc.

Here is another informative article to track the source and cause of account lockout:

The Logon Type field indicates the kind of logon that was requested. The most common types are 2 (interactive) and 3 (network).

The Process Information fields indicate which account and process on the system requested the logon.

The Network Information fields indicate where a remote logon request originated. Workstation name is not always available and may be left blank in some cases.

The authentication information fields provide detailed information about this specific logon request.
  - Transited services indicate which intermediate services have participated in this logon request.
  - Package name indicates which sub-protocol was used among the NTLM protocols.
  - Key length indicates the length of the generated session key. This will be 0 if no session key was requested.

Nick3663, thanks for using Netwrix Account Lockout Examiner tool! Try to investigate IIS logs on your Exchange server, probably you will find out lots of bad logon attempts from external IP address.

Seems to be an ongoing issue in Exchange 2013 i will have to get with Microsoft's Exchange team and see if there is a fix see this article

Unless some has had this issue and resolved it.
