Introduction to Exchange mailbox delegation synchronization
CloudLink tasks for Exchange include an optional action to synchronize mailbox delegation permissions (to be selected with the Synchronize with Active Directory action). This option enables users to read in Personal.cloud the archived messages of Exchange mailboxes for which they have Full Access delegation permission.
Note the following regarding mailbox delegation synchronization at this release:
CloudLink synchronizes the delegation permissions that have been applied to on-premises Exchange user mailboxes and shared mailboxes. The Exchange administrator typically applies these mailbox delegation permissions through the Exchange Admin Center or the Exchange Management Console, or with PowerShell.
Previously, the delegate permissions were only synced for accounts in the same AD domain. Shared mailbox permissions were not propagating across to EV.Cloud. Users from another domain were unable to replicate. However, this cross-domain delegation permission problem is resolved. You can use the ResolveCrossDomainDelegates key to configure cross domain delegation permissions for the users from different domain.
If there is any problem for resolving delegates, especially across cross domains, switch off that functionality using this ResolveCrossDomainDelegates key with value "0". This ignores the delegate in cross domain and works as it was working in earlier version.
CloudLink does not synchronize delegate access to mailbox folders that users can set from Outlook.
CloudLink synchronizes delegation permissions that have been granted to users and mail-enabled security groups.
For information on the versions of Exchange that CloudLink supports for delegate permission synchronization, see the Veritas Alta Archiving Compatibility List.
CloudLink also provides a task action to remove any previously synchronized Exchange mailbox delegation permissions from Veritas Alta Archiving.
