Setting Up Journaling

Before the archiving process can be set up in MailStore, Journaling has to be set up for the Exchange server. Please proceed as described below:

Step 1: Activating Envelope Journaling

Please note: Envelope Journaling is first available for Exchange 2000 Server with Post-Service Pack 3 and Exchange Server 2003 with Service Pack 1.

Start MailStore Client and log on as MailStore administrator. Click on Management Shell and enter the following command:

 exejcfg

The Envelope Journaling feature in Microsoft Exchange is now activated. After pressing Enter, a success message should appear on the screen:

 Successfully ENABLED Envelope Journaling for COMPANY

Step 2: Creating a Mailbox for Journaling

Create a new user whose Exchange mailbox is to be used for Journaling. Through the console Active Directory Users and Computers, add a new user with a meaningful name, e.g. journal.

Step 3: Configuring the New Mailbox as Journal Mailbox

Open the Exchange System Manager. In the tree Server, open the server name as well as the first storage group. Right-click on Mailbox Store and select Properties.

The dialog window Mailbox Store Properties opens:

Xchg jour 2003 01 de.png
  • Mark the checkbox Archive all messages sent or received by mailboxes on this store.
  • Click on Browse.
  • Enter the name of the new user, e.g. journal.
  • Click on Check Names. The name will be underlined and provided with additional information.
  • Click on OK.
  • In the Properties dialog window, click on OK again.

Please keep in mind that in complex Microsoft Exchange environments it may take a few minutes until the Journaling settings become active.

Important notice: Before MailStore can access the new Journal mailbox for archiving, it may be necessary for you to log on to this mailbox once using Outlook Web Access (OWA), for example.
