Delegated mailbox
Ivanti Email+ supports delegated access for Mailbox. Currently, we support delegation of up to four mailboxes. In case of multiple mailboxes, each mailbox is independent and has its own Delegated Mailbox account settings.
When configuring the mailbox delegation, the owner delegates mailbox to another user (Delegate) to manage it as per delegation level set on Outlook.
The delegated user can add upto four delegated mailboxes from multiple owners. .When multiple accounts are available then only mailboxes delegated to primary account can be added to Email+.
To configure Delegated Mailbox on Android AppConnect or Android Enterprise, configure the following key-value pairs or restrictions:
- Add delegated_shared_mailbox value to enabled_features key-value pair or to Optional Features restriction to add the Add Mailbox option in the Email+ app.
When you select the Add a Mailbox option, Email+ searches email address in GAL and provides list of contacts to add mailbox. If the search result is successful, the 'Mailbox added' pop-up is displayed and Delegated Mailbox is added. Once Delegated Mailbox is added, the Add Mailbox option appears in the navigation drawer and Settings.
Email+ supports delegated mailbox permissions similar to Microsoft Exchange server such as Reviewer, Editor, and Author level permissions. Ivanti Email+ 4.7.0 supports only 'Reviewer' level permission. All other permissions levels are represented as 'Reviewer' in Email+.
Delegated Mailbox with Reviewer permission can perform the following actions:
-
Mark as Unread or Read
-
Download and view attachments from mail or invite mails.
Search of the delegated mails is out of scope for Email+ 4.7.0 release.
All the folders are auto synced when the user clicks on each folder to start and stop the sync. The delegated user can manually delete the delegated mailbox added from the Email+ app.
Microsoft server does not provide any permissions to load sub folders and doesn't return in requests for the sub folders synchronization so sub folder in the Inbox is not displayed for added delegated mailbox of such accounts in Email+ as well as on Outlook.
The delegate receives a notification when a new mail is received in the delegated mailbox. Also, the delegated user receives following notification when the owner removes the access to the delegated mailbox:
Mailbox access has been denied
You cannot delegate a particular sub folder in a mailbox, you can only delegate only the mailbox
