Auto Archive internet mail

[KirkDS]

Hello-

Long time listener, first time caller ...hehe

I work for a large financial company and we need to archive internet mail that is sent by a group of employees so that the e-mail can be screened (to prevent insider trading, etc)without the user being able to change the settings. Can this be done on the server side?

Thanks for any help!

Anyone?? I just need to archive e-mail on the server without the users being able to disable the function.

THanks!

Journaling is the only way from the server side. And you'll have to do all outbound as opposed to just a few users...

Create a custom recipient entry for each mailbox.
Create a distribution list (DL) for each mailbox, and include the mailboxes custom recipient in the DL.
Hide each custom recipient from the address book (to do so, select the Hide from address book check box on the Advanced tab of each recipient object's Properties dialog box).
This method takes a bit initial effort, but the advantage is that the only entry in the Global Address List (GAL) for each mailbox is the relevant DL. Exchange automatically copies to the custom recipient all messages that a user sends to the DL, thus archiving everything.
