4.2.2 Setting up journaling for Microsoft Exchange Server
2007
Journaling is a feature that enables the recording of all email in an
organization. Microsoft Exchange journaling enables the channeling of
data into an archival solution with minimum overhead.
While, by definition, journaling is the ability to record emails, archival
reduces the strain of storing data through backups, removal, and
storage. GFI MailArchiver uses Microsoft Exchange journaling to
centralize all the emails to archive in a single mailbox.
NOTE: If journaling is not set up correctly, email archiving will NOT
work.
Microsoft Exchange 2007 supports two types of journaling:
 Standard journaling: This feature enables the configuration of a
Mailbox store that enables the recording of email in an
organization. GFI MailArchiver can use Microsoft Exchange
journaling to centralizer all the emails to archive in a single
mailbox for archival. This type of journaling is also called per-
mailbox database journaling.
 Premium journaling: Only available with the Microsoft Exchange
Enterprise client access license. It enables an administrator to
setup custom journaling rules such as:
o Archive only incoming emails
o Archive only outgoing emails
o Archive emails for a particular group.
This journaling is also called per-recipient journaling.
GFI MailArchiver utilizes this type of journaling by detecting and
displaying these rules in the Data Sources Configuration Wizard.
NOTE: If journaling is not set up correctly, email archiving will NOT
work.
Which journaling method shall I use?
Choose standard journaling to archive all emails (inbound and
outbound) for all users in your organization.
Choose premium journaling of you want more control over the emails
to archive (e.g. only for specific users or for inbound or outbound
only). Note that premium journaling requires a Microsoft Exchange
Enterprise client access license.
