Using Delegation with Exchange & Office 365

Forensic Email Collector allows you to connect to a target Exchange mailbox using another user's (e.g., an administrator) credentials who has full mailbox access rights to the target mailbox.

In order to use delegation with Exchange / Office 365:

1. Enter the target email address (this is the mailbox you wish to forensically preserve):

2. Enter the username and password for the account that has rights to access the target mailbox. In this case, instead of entering the credentials of jane.doe@example.com, we are using the credentials of admin@example.com.

3. When you use a different set of credentials than those of the target mailbox, FEC will automatically switch to delegation mode and allow you to acquire the mailbox.
