Microsoft Exchange envelope journaling

Microsoft Exchange envelope journaling

Microsoft Exchange 2010/2013/Exchange Online (Office 365) utilizes Envelope Journaling. The concept of Envelope Journaling is to provide a company or organization with a method to enforce policies to comply with regulations regarding email communication. A journaling agent monitors email traffic for a given information store mailbox and all email messages are copied to an envelope journaled mailbox. The envelope journaled mailbox is configured to connect to the archive service through SMTP for archiving and thereby captures and uploads all email communication for forensic analysis if required, or any search function, through Sonian
Archive for E-Mail.

Microsoft also offers an option called Microsoft Exchange Premium journaling. With Premium journaling, it is possible to perform more granular journaling with journal rules. This option allows an organization to configure journaling to capture individual recipients or members of distribution groups. Refer to Microsoft Exchange documentation for more information about this option.

Please refer to the selected links below from the Microsoft TechNet Exchange Server TechCenter for more information on how to configure Exchange Envelope Journaling and SMTP.


NOTE:
•When SMTP journaling is used, the archive does not maintain folder information for archived emails.
•SMTP journaling will collect, ingest, and archive emails up to 75MB in size by default
