How to Create Managed Folders

Hi all, here's a step-by-step of how to create managed folders in Exchange 2007:

 

Step 1 – Create a Custom Managed Folder –

Exchange Management console -> Org. Configuration -> Mailbox -> Managed Custom Folders -> New Managed Custom Folder

Step 2 – Create Managed Folder Policy

Exchange Management console -> Org. Configuration -> Mailbox -> Managed Folder Mailbox Policies -> New Managed Folder Mailbox Policy

Step 3 – Apply a policy to users

  Apply to 1 user called Test “set-mailbox test -ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy POLICY_NAME”

Apply to all server users “Get-Mailbox -server SERVER_NAME | set-mailbox -ManagedFolderMailboxPolicy POLICY_NAME”

(you can also apply to DL, Servers,etc.)

4 – Run the Managed folder assistant

Start-ManagedFolderAssistant
