Exchange Recipients Defining Addresses Managing Mailboxes Mailbox Types Assigning Permissions
Exchange provides various types of recipients to fill various needs: Mailbox-enabled Users (mailbox)—has an account in AD and a mailbox in Exchange. Mail-Enabled User—has an account in AD and an external address. Does not have an Exchange mailbox. Appears in global address list. Ex. Onsite contract employee
Mail-Enabled Groups—an AD group that has all appropriate exchange mail attributes including address. Mail-Enabled Public Folders—public folders are like electronic bulletin boards. They can be tagged with an address and can receive . Good for “virtual” shared mailboxes.
addresses are generated for objects at the time the mail-enabled recipient is created. ◦ Previously, this was handled by they recipient policies in Exchange 2000/2003 Recipient policies have been broken into two parts: ◦ domains for which your org accepts mail ◦ address policies for users
Accepted Domains—an accepted domain is an SMTP domain name for which Exchange 2010 servers will accept mail. Accepted domains must be defined for all addresses that will be routed into you organization by the Hub Transport servers Accepted domains are found within the Org Configuration work center under the Hub Transport subcontainer
Accepted Domains
When you create an Exchange organization, a single accepted domain is created automatically. ◦ This is the name of the AD forest root domain. Domain types ◦ Authoritative: SMTP domains for which you accept the inbound message and deliver it to an internal mailbox. ◦ Internal relay domain: SMTP domains for which your Exchange will accept inbound SMTP mail. Must have mail-enabled contacts or users who specify forwarding addresses for users in those domains.
Domain types ◦ External relay domain: SMTP domains for which the Exchange org will accept SMTP mail and then relay that mail to an external SMTP mail server. Usually one that is outside the orgs boundaries. Address Policies ◦ Conditions that are examined when a mail enabled object is created. ◦ Located under Org configuration under the Hub Transport container
Address Policies
◦ The Default Policy is the lowest priority policy and applies if no other policies apply. ◦ The default address generation rule uses the object’s Exchange alias and the domain name of the AD forest root.
Mailbox management tasks include creating, managing and deleting mailboxes associated with user accounts. No longer performed in ADUC Rules associated with user accounts and mailbox management: ◦ Users can own only one mailbox or a single mailbox and an archive mailbox associated with that mailbox ◦ User’s can be given permissions to other mailboxes
◦ Each mailbox must be associated with a user account that is in the same AD forest as the Exchange server ◦ A single user account from another AD forest can own a mailbox, but a user account in the Exchange servers home forest must still exist and be associated with the mailbox.
User mailbox—assigns a mailbox to an existing user account in the same AD forest as the Exchange server. Room mailbox—creates a disabled user account and assigns a mailbox to that user. Equipment mailbox—creates a disabled user account and assigns a mailbox to that user. Linked mailbox--creates a disabled user account and assigns a mailbox and prompts the administrator to provide a user account in a separate trusted forest.
Select the mailbox you wish to manage within EMC and select the Full Permissions or Send as options.
