Managing Exchange for an organisational unit

For: employees

This user guide will help share administrators to manage Exchange for an organisational unit and to manage public folders.

Managing Exchange

Form: Managing Exchange

The Exchange administration is only available to share administrators at organisational units that use Exchange. To request Exchange for an organisational unit use the form Exchange-Bereich für Organisationseinheit beantragen (requesting Exchange, in German).

You can:

grant individual users the right to use Exchange
share a public folder or a public mailbox using the menu item Rechte vererben (inherit rights) and transfer the related permissions to the subfolders. This is necessary to include new users into an existing rights structure
create a public folder with an own e-mail address

When setting up Exchange, a public root folder with the name Annn as well as a group mailbox with the address Annn-exchange@d.univie.ac.at is created automatically. Annn stands for the abbreviation of your organisational unit, e.g. A140 for the ZID.

Note

You may not rename the root folder as this might cause problems with the permissions.
