Exchange Online mailboxes can send, receive, and save messages. Exchange Online recognizes several mailbox types. The mailbox types listed below are supported in One Identity Manager. Exchange Online mailboxes are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization.
Mailbox type | Description |
---|---|
User mailbox |
User mailboxes are assigned to Azure Active Directory user accounts in an Exchange Online organization. You cannot create user mailboxes in One Identity Manager. User mailboxes are created by assigning the respective subscriptions to Azure Active Directory user accounts. By these means, user mailboxes are created that do not appear in One Identity Manager until after synchronization. The user mailboxes can be subsequently provisioned automatically in Exchange Online. |
Equipment mailbox |
Equipment mailboxes are resource mailboxes used for planning resources, such as computers or laptops. You can create equipment mailboxes in One Identity Manager. When you create an equipment mailbox, an Azure Active Directory user account is also created and linked to the mailbox. |
Room mailbox |
Room mailboxes are resource mailboxes used for planning meeting locations. You can room equipment mailboxes in One Identity Manager. When you create a room mailbox, an Azure Active Directory user account is also created and linked to the mailbox. |
Shared mailbox |
Shared mailboxes are mailboxes that are used by several users. You can create shared mailboxes in One Identity Manager. When you create a shared mailbox, an Azure Active Directory user account is also created and linked to the mailbox. |
Discovery mailbox |
In Exchange Online, a discovery mailbox that is used as target mailbox for searches using eDiscovery, is created by default. You cannot edit discovery mailboxes in One Identity Manager. |
