Configure or Remove an Alternate Journaling Mailbox

  • Artikkeli

 

Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2

If a journaling mailbox becomes unavailable, journal reports sent to it are rejected and resubmitted for delivery. Journal reports are never returned to the original sender. If you don't want the rejected journal reports to remain in the delivery queue, you can configure an alternate journal mailbox to receive the journal reports until the journaling mailbox becomes available.

Only journal reports submitted for delivery after an alternate journaling mailbox is configured are redirected. Journal reports that failed delivery before the alternate journaling mailbox was configured aren't redirected. Journal reports are delivered to the alternate journaling mailbox as attachments in a non-delivery report (NDR). When the journaling mailbox becomes available, you can use the Send Again feature in Outlook 2010 to resubmit the journal reports for delivery.

Important

When you configure an alternate journaling mailbox, it applies to the whole Exchange organization. Journal reports rejected by any journaling mailbox are redirected to the same alternate journaling mailbox.

Warning

If you configure an alternate journaling mailbox, you must monitor the mailbox to make sure that it doesn't become unavailable. If the alternate journaling mailbox also becomes unavailable and rejects journal reports, the rejected journal reports are lost and can't be retrieved.
