Description

Service account

This account performs the backend searches in the Exchange environment. Only one service account is necessary for the entire organization. Configure the service account as follows:

Ensure that the account is a member of the Exchange discovery management group
Ensure that the account never expires

Discovery mailbox

This mailbox stores the search result messages. ScanMail copies messages from the end users’ mailboxes into the discovery mailbox. Configure the discovery mailbox(es) as follows:

Ensure that the discovery management group has full access permission to each discovery mailbox
Assign at least one discovery mailbox to each data center in the organization

Note

Trend Micro recommends that administrators do not place the discovery mailbox in Data Availability Groups (DAG) solutions. The discovery mailbox consumes more database space when used in a DAG solution.
