To add mailboxes to the list

  1. Use the tabs in the Find Mailboxes dialog box to specify your criteria for searching for the mailboxes you want to register as storages.
  2. When you are finished, click Find Now and wait for the search to complete. The mailboxes that meet your search criteria are in the Mailboxes list.

Remove Removes the selected mailboxes from the list.

After you click Next, the wizard displays a series of pages in which you can view the progress of the storage registration operation, and cancel the operation if necessary.

Select a Connection Method

Use this page to select a method to connect to the mailboxes you want to register as storages.

Table 91: User interface elements

Element Description
Connect using MAPI

Connects to mailboxes via the Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI) over RPC.

You cannot use this method to access mailboxes hosted in Exchange Online (Office 365) and on post-2010 versions of Exchange Server, because they do not support direct MAPI connections.

Before using this method, ensure all the mailboxes you have selected support this method, especially if the mailboxes are hosted on different Exchange Servers.

Connect using HTTP

Connects to mailboxes by using RPC over HTTP/HTTPS.

With this option, Recovery Manager for Exchange uses Basic Authentication and Client Access server (CAS) as a proxy for Exchange.

This option supports the most recent versions of Exchange, including Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016. However, if you experience connection issues with this method, we recommend that you use the Automatically detect connection settings method.

Before using this method, ensure all the mailboxes you have selected support this method, especially if the mailboxes are hosted on different Exchange Servers.

Automatically detect connection settings

Automatically retrieves connection settings from Exchange Server or Exchange Online and uses them to select a connection method. This option requires the Autodiscover service to be running on the target Exchange Server or in Exchange Online.

Use this option to connect to Exchange Server 2013 or Exchange Server 2016 if you experience issues with the Connect using HTTP option.

Note: This is the only available option if you work with Microsoft Outlook 2016 or 2019.

We recommend that you use this method if you want to register multiple mailboxes hosted on different Exchange Servers. This method automatically detects and uses the most appropriate connection settings for each mailbox.
