Mailbox Search role

  • Article

Applies to: Exchange Server 2013

The Mailbox Search management role enables administrators to search the content of one or more mailboxes in an organization.

Enabling or disabling role assignments

By enabling or disabling a role assignment, you control whether that role assignment should be in effect. If a role assignment is disabled, the permissions granted by the associated role aren't applied to the role assignee. This is convenient if you want to temporarily remove permissions without deleting a role assignment. For more information, see Change a role assignment.
