Mailbox-enabled recipients can send, receive, and save messages. Microsoft Exchange recognizes several mailbox types. The mailbox types listed below are supported in One Identity Manager.

Table 28: Supported mailbox types
Mailbox type	Description
User mailbox	User mailboxes are assigned to Active Directory user accounts in a Microsoft Exchange organization.
Equipment mailbox	Equipment mailboxes are resource mailboxes used for planning resources, such as computers or laptops. This mailbox type can only be created for disabled user accounts.
Room mailbox	Room mailboxes are resource mailboxes used for planning meeting locations.

Active Directory user accounts in a trusted domain without an Exchange structure can obtain a linked mailbox in this Microsoft Exchange organization. This mailbox type can only be created for disabled user accounts.
Shared mailbox	Shared mailboxes are mailboxes that are used by several users. This mailbox type can only be created for disabled user accounts.
Legacy mailbox	Legacy mailboxes are mailboxes from previous versions of Microsoft Exchange. These mailboxes are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization and cannot be edited.
Discovery mailbox	As from Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 onwards, a discovery mail, which is used as target mailbox for searches through eDiscovery in Microsoft Exchange, is created by default. These mailboxes are loaded into One Identity Manager by synchronization and cannot be edited.

Creating Microsoft Exchange mailboxes

You always create mailboxes for Active Directory user accounts. An Active Directory user account can either have a mailbox or a mail user. If a user account already has a mail user, you must delete the mail user before a mailbox can be set up for the user account.

NOTE: Equipment mailboxes, shared mailboxes and linked mailboxes can only be created for disabled user accounts.

NOTE: It is recommended to use account definitions to set up mailboxes for company employees.

In order to create mailboxes through account definitions, the employee must have a central user account and obtain the IT operating data through assignment to a primary department, primary location, or a primary cost center.
Some of the mailboxes' main data is mapped from employee main data using templates.

To create a mailbox

In the Manager, select the Active Directory > Mailboxes category.
Click in the result list.
On the main data form, enter the main data of the mailbox.
Save the changes.

To create a mailbox for an Active Directory user account, manually

In the Manager, select the Active Directory > User accounts category.
In the result list, select the user account then select the Change main data task.
Select the Create mailbox task.
Enter the following information:
- Active Directory user account: The user account is already selected.
- Exchange organization: The Microsoft Exchange organization is already selected. Check the setting.
- (Optional) Mailbox database: Name of the mailbox database. If empty, Microsoft Exchange decides which mailbox database is used.
- Alias: Unique alias for further identification of the mailbox.
Save the changes.

NOTE: Names and occurrences of the listed data and tasks can vary depending on which version of the Microsoft Exchange server is implemented and the type of Microsoft Exchange mailbox.
