isinteg is now New-MailboxRepairRequest in Exchange 2010
It turns out that the command “isinteg -s mail -fix -test alltests“ has been replaced.
This is what I used instead:
New-MailboxRepairRequest -Mailbox JohnDoe@Acme.com -CorruptionType SearchFolder, AggregateCounts, ProvisionedFolder, FolderView
New-MailboxRepairRequest -Database “Mailbox Database 134628591” -CorruptionType SearchFolder, AggregateCounts, ProvisionedFolder, FolderView

Outlook Security Alert with Outlook 2010 and Exchange 2013
With newer UCC SSL certificates it is often not possible to register local domain names. Example: mail.mydoman.local
Using the default exchange 2013 setting the outlook 201 client will get a “Security Alert” the says “The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site”
I resolved this by changing the Auto Discover Service Internal Uri.
First I stated the exchange Server 2013 power shell.
And ran these commands:
Get-ClientAccessServer
Get-ClientAccessServer -Identity ExchangeServerName | fl *
Set-ClientAccessServer -Identity VR-EXCHANGE -AutoDiscoverServiceInternalUri: https://ExchangeServerName.domain.com/Autodiscover/Autodiscover.xml
Get-ClientAccessServer -Identity ExchangeServerName | fl *
