Introduction > Integration with Microsoft Exchange > Connector for Microsoft® Exchange Server > Setup > User Accounts

One User

This option lets a single user run the Therefore™ Exchange Service and connect to the Microsoft Exchange Server. The example below shows an Active Directory user named ThereforeServiceUser which is used to connect to Exchange and retrieve e-mails. This same user runs the Therefore™ Exchange Service on the Therefore™ Server and archives the e-mails in Therefore™.

1.Open the Exchange Management Shell and run the followings cmdlets:

Get-MailboxDatabase | Add-ADPermission -user <domain\user> -AccessRights GenericAll

This gives the selected user permission to read all mailboxes in the mailbox database. If multiple mailbox databases are required, run the cmdlet for each database.

New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Name:VeeamUserImpersonisation -Role:ApplicationImpersonation -User:<domain\user>

This gives the selected user impersonation permission on all mailboxes in the mailbox database.

2.In Therefore™, this same user requires at least Read/Write permissions on the categories where e-mails will be saved.

note

•To enable this option, check the box Use Exchange Connector service credentials on the Global configuration tab.

•It is recommended to NOT use Exchange Admin or Domain Admin users to run the Therefore™ Exchange Service, since these users have restricted permissions in Exchange.

•This option will not work for Therefore™ Online systems, or when connecting to Exchange Online. Use the Two-User-option, instead.
