What happens if I change a policy?​

If you change the policy that is assigned to a equipment mailbox, the resource's compliance will be evaluated against the new policy from the time of assignment.

What happens if I change a template?​

If you change the template that is assigned to a equipment mailbox, only the meta data associated with the account will change. If you change the policy that is assigned to a template, metadata of existing equipment mailboxes will not be changed automatically.

Managing Synchronized On-Premise equipment mailboxes​

Synchronized on-premise equipment mailboxes can be managed to a limited extent with EasyLife 365 Mail:

  • Adjust Permissions: You have the flexibility to modify access permissions for on-premise equipment mailboxes, ensuring the right individuals have the appropriate level of access.

  • Apply Policies and Templates: Implement customized policies and templates to enforce specific security and organizational rules for these mailboxes, aligning them with your business requirements.

  • Creation Limitation: It's important to note that creating on-premise equipment mailboxes is not supported through EasyLife 365 Mail. If you require a new shared mailbox, alternative methods may be necessary.

  • Deletion Safeguards: Deleting on-premise equipment mailboxes is a controlled process. In cases where an attempt to delete an on-premise resource is made due to governance activities, a person will be notified when this activity is being performed to take further actions.
