Enabling Mailbox Audit by Default
Is there a way of turning on mailbox auditing by default in Exchange Online for newly created mailboxes? It appears that this would be feasable via the "Set-mailboxplan" cmdlet but the actual parameter appears to be reserved for internal use according to the technet article: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt586788(v=exchg.160).aspx.
Any ideas other than turning on Auditing manually everytime a mailbox is enabled?
Hi,
Apart from the methods of manually/scheduled/script enabling auditing on new mailboxes, has the "Set-MailboxPlan" or any other Default/Automated methods become available yet?
it is applied by Default now.
- Yep finally, great new feature :)
Nope.
You can create a script to run each time you create a mailbox to do that.
The storage doesnt count against the mailbox quota, it uses the RecoverableItems quota instead.
I have to run the Set-Mailbox -AuditEnabled $True every time we add a new mailbox so that Auditing is turned on.
Thanks, that's what we are currently doing. I was looking for a way to possibly skip that and let the mailboxplan actually default the parameter to True for any new mailbox.
I think you need to create script to run everytime you create a mailbox.
