Hello Friend,

Yes, Exchange Online supports envelope journaling. Here's a concise guide to set it up:

1. Create a Journaling Mailbox:
   • In the Microsoft 365 admin center, go to the Exchange admin center (EAC).
   • Create a new mailbox to use as the journaling mailbox.
2. Configure Journaling Rules:
   • In the EAC, navigate to Compliance management > Journal rules.
   • Create a new rule:
     • Send journal reports to: Enter the journaling mailbox address.
     • Scope: Choose whether to journal internal, external, or all messages.
     • Conditions: Specify any conditions or choose to journal all messages.
3. Test and Monitor:
   • Send test emails to ensure journaling is working.
   • Regularly check the journaling mailbox for capacity and functionality.

Ensure compliance and security by restricting access to the journaling mailbox and monitoring its size.
I hope this helps you. Have a nice day!!
