Overview
When configuring a dedicated user account to retrieve the emails from the GFI AntiSpam Public folders, the user must have owner access rights on the GFI AntiSpam Public Folders.
Process
To assign the owner access permissions on the GFI AntiSpam Public folders and subfolders on Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 and later perform the following:
- Log in to the Microsoft Exchange Server using administrative privileges.
- Open the Microsoft Exchange Management Shell.
- Enter the following command:
Get-PublicFolder -Identity "\GFI AntiSpam Folders" -Recurse | ForEach-Object {Add-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity $_.Identity User "USERNAME" AccessRights owner Server "SERVERNAME"}
Replace USERNAME and SERVERNAME with the appropriate values for your environment.
Note: If GFI MailEssentials is installed in a DMZ, for security reasons it is recommended to create a dedicated user account to retrieve the emails from the public folders. This user would only have access to the GFI AntiSpam Folders.
