Office 365 - Archiving online mailboxes to PST

Good Afternoon,
We have moved our mailboxes from on premise to Office 365. Before we can delete a user from the online admin centre we need to be able to archive their mailbox to a PST in case we need access to their email in the future.
Any assistance with this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards.
Bryan

Hi Bryan,
I think the feathre you need is Inactive mailboxes in Exchange Online. This feathre allows you to keep a terminated employees mailbox on your Office 365 cloud environment even after you have deleted their user account and freed up their licence.

For more details about this, I'd suggest you post in the forum of Microsoft Online: Exchange Online or
Office 365 Community, as current forum only focuses on questions and feedback for Microsoft Office client.
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

  • Questions on managing Office 365/Exchange Online Mailboxes in Server 2012 Essentials

    Wondered if anyone could answer a couple of queries:
    When managing Office 365/Exchange Online mailboxes in Windows Server 2012 Essentials:-
    1. Does the server itself act as the Exchange server i.e. does it do all of the downloading/sending of emails or does Outlook on each workstation still communicate direct with the Office 365/Exchange Online server address?
    2. Does Outlook on each workstation have the Exchange server address set to the internal address of the Server 2012 Essentials box or does it still have the external Office 365/Exchange Online server address?
    I don't work for Microsoft - I just use their products.

    Hi,
    When you integrate Office 365/Exchange Online mailboxes in Windows Server 2012 Essentials,you can see the mailbox usage information on the Essentials Dashboard and manager users. However, the essentials server won't download/send emails and Outlook
    will still communicate with the O365/Exchange Online Server. In addition, the Exchange server address would be point to the external server address.
    You can also refer to the article below to get more related information:

  • Synchronize Lotus Domino Directory with Office 365/Exchange Online

    I have someone who is asking me to migrate them from a Lotus Domino server to Office 360/Exchange online. However they want to maintain a sync between Lotus Domino Directory and Office 365/Exchange Online. I'm wondering if that is even possible
    or would they need to have a regular Active Directory server act as a go between the two. Can anyone provide me some guidance/suggestions?
    Vincent Sprague

    Curious, did you ever get this setup?
    Reason I'm asking is I was involved with a large MSO365 migration (15k) from Lotus Notes. We had a separate AD forest just for email Dirsync. We involved a third party to setup the sync and migration between Notes and AD, and coexistence. It was rather complex.
    Out of the box, it would have been extremely difficult.

  • Office 365 / Exchange Online - Hybrid Setup - On Premise User cannot see calendar of an Exchange Online User.

    Hi All, 
    The below will help if:
    You have a hybrid setup and cannot see Free/Busy info from an On Premise user for anyone on Office 365 / Exchange Online.
    You have your network firewall configured to allow your Exchange servers out through the proxy for O365/EXO url's
    - Get hold of SysInternals PSEXEC from Microsoft. 
    Run PSEXEC -i -s C"\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"  (This opens Internet Explorer as the SYSTEM account)
    Goto Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings and untick the "Automatically Detect Settings"
    Had this bouncing around at Microsoft for a few days until one of the guys tried this and it worked immediately.

    Forgot to mention, the PSEXEC command needs to be run as an Administrator

  • Office 365 Sharepoint Online and Infopath 2013

    I'm looking create an InfoPath 2013 form where the view changes based on the current user.  This is so different departments & managers get access to fields regular submitters don't see.
    This is in SharePoint Online with Office 365.  How can I manage this?  I have tried connecting to SharePoint online via a data connection, but I get errors when it tries to make the data connection.
    Are there any tutorials on how to do this, or at least something put point me in the right direction?

  • Office 365 Lync Online / Skype For Business Journaling

    Hello, 
    From what I have found in my research, there is no way to journal Lync Online / Skype For Business IMs with Office 365.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.  Is anyone doing this by way of workaround or 3rd part product?  
    Thanks in advance. 
    This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

    Thanks for the clear dialogue and responses.
    I want upgrade from Skype to Skype for Business, BUT want to retain my Skype ID (which is printed on my business cards) and existing contact connections.
    My situation is similar to Jim Carpenter's, in that I've used Skype for years.  I have it linked to my old Microsoft account that I'd set up for the old SkyDrive (now OneDrive) product. When I bought Office 365 Business Premium (includes Skype for Business), it necessitated creating a second Microsoft ID using the suffix [e-mail removed for privacy and security] to set up my new business account. That is a different login than my existing Skype login tied to the original MS account, and the new one not only accesses the MS programs, it accesses Exchange, through which I run Outlook calendar and contacts.
    So, are these the steps I should take?
    Unlink my existing Skype account
    then uninstall Skype
    then install Skype for Business
    I would guess that there would need to be a re-linking step of some sort, too, but I'm unclear on this.  Guidance?
    Please confirm that is the best path.  Will this process allow me to migrate the Skype ID and contacts to the business app?
    Thanks much.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you had an issue to connect to the SharePoint online.
    I had tested with your code, and it worked well as below.
    Did your project contain other code? Such as parse the XML file?
    You can create a new clean project to check with it works.

  • Access denied office 365 / SharePoint online with Global Admin account

    Hi All,
    I am going crazy since two days solving an issue. The problem is;
    I am making a console APP which is talking to SharePoint Online using global admin account (One which was specified as admin while making a new subscription). What I am trying to achieve is, I want to add a custom action using CSOM to each site collection and
    subsite of office 365. That code works fine except on the root site collection which is pre-created by office 365 while signing up (i.e. https://xyz.sharepoint.com)
    Whatever I do on that site collection, it says gives me below error;
    "SchemaVersion":"15.0.0.0","LibraryVersion":"16.0.3912.1201","ErrorInfo":{
    "ErrorMessage":"Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.","ErrorValue":null,"TraceCorrelationId":"2a47fd9c-c07b-1000-cfb7-cdffbe3ab83a","ErrorCode":-2147024891,"ErrorTypeName":"System.UnauthorizedAccessException"
    },"TraceCorrelationId":"2a47fd9c-c07b-1000-cfb7-cdffbe3ab83a"
    Now the user is global admin. I also added again that user as site collection admin. 
    The same piece of code works fine on other site collections (search site collection, any newly made site collection...). 
    here is a code;
                using (ClientContext spcollContext = new ClientContext(web.Url))
                    SecureString passWord = new SecureString();
                    foreach (char c in strAdminPassword.ToCharArray()) passWord.AppendChar(c);
                    SharePointOnlineCredentials creds = new SharePointOnlineCredentials(strAdminUser, passWord);
                    spcollContext.Credentials = creds;
                    Web currentweb = spcollContext.Web;
                    spcollContext.Load(currentweb);
                    spcollContext.ExecuteQuery();
               //     authCookie = creds.GetAuthenticationCookie(new Uri(web.Url));
                    var existingActions2 = currentweb.UserCustomActions;
                    spcollContext.Load(existingActions2);
                    spcollContext.ExecuteQuery();
                    var actions2 = existingActions2.ToArray();
                    foreach (var action in actions2)
                        if (action.Description == "CustomScriptCodeForEachsite" &&
                            action.Location == "ScriptLink")
                            action.DeleteObject();
                            spcollContext.ExecuteQuery();
                    var newAction2 = existingActions2.Add();
                    newAction2.Description = "CustomScriptCodeForEachsite";
                    newAction2.Location = "ScriptLink";
                    newAction2.ScriptBlock = scriptBlock;
                    newAction2.Update();
                    spcollContext.Load(currentweb, s => s.UserCustomActions);
                    spcollContext.ExecuteQuery(); // GETTING ERROR ON THIS LINE.

  • Office 365 user online status

    I am developing a search page where displaying users from office 365. I have retrieved all the users using the command  Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.UserCollection userCollection = client_Context.Web.SiteUsers;. To retrieve all the property values
    for a user i have used this command Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.UserProfiles.PersonProperties userInformation = peopleManager.GetPropertiesFor(oUser.LoginName);  
    Now my customer wants to show the indication of user currently available in online or not. I don't know whether i will get this value from a property or need to call any other service to check online status.
    If anybody have any information please answer my question.

    Online Presence in SharePoint is provided client side by using whatever instant messaging client the user is using.  SharePoint doesn't actually keep track of who is online.  Here's an answer to another question that discusses the HTML used to
    display presence.

  • Connect Office 365 Exchange Online through Powershell

    I am trying to perform some operations on Exchange online(Office 365) through powershell.
    First I created a new powershell session and exported the modules to local as "o365", so that on any later operation I no need to use Import-PsSession to download the required modules
    $cred = Get-Credential
    $s = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName "Microsoft.Exchange" -ConnectionUri "https://ps.outlook.com/powershell/" -Credential $cred -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
    Export-PsSession -session $s -outputModule o365
    Now, I am creating new session and importing the existing module "o365".
    $cred = Get-Credential
    $s = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName "Microsoft.Exchange" -ConnectionUri "https://ps.outlook.com/powershell/" -Credential $cred -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
    Import-Module o365
    Get-DistributionGroup
    While running the command "Get-DistributionGroup", powershell prompts me to enter the office 365 credentials once again. Is it possible to avoid entering the credentials once again? I don't want to use Import-PsSession, since it takes more time.

    Hi,
    Not sure, if the following cmdlets can make a difference. Anyway, suggest you to try these:
    $UserCredential = Get-Credential
    $Session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $UserCredential -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection
    Import-PSSession $SessionGet-DistributionGroup

  • Office 365 Exchange Online not syncing on 4G

    I have been using Office 365 for over a year now and have not had problems like today.  None of my devices will connect to the Exchange Online server via the Verizon Mobile Data connection.  It works fine on Wifi, but not 4G LTE.  I spent and hour and half on chat with Verizon and they tried to reset some things with no success.  I have submitted a ticket with Microsoft, but I was busy with something else when they called.  I am now waiting for a call back.  Anyone else have this issue?  I only have Verizon devices, anyone with another carrier experience this?  Unfortunately I only have Samsung devices as well.

    Forgot to mention, the PSEXEC command needs to be run as an Administrator
    Run PSEXEC -i -s C"\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"  (This opens Internet Explorer as the SYSTEM account)

  • How to deploy PowerPivot/Power BI in Office 365 SharePoint Online?

    We have several users on Office 365 (E2 Subscription) who have Excel 2013 and PowerPivot on their individual computers who would like to place PowerPivot apps on SharePoint for users without Excel to view.
    How can we do this?

    Your users can do this now if interactivity isn't required. If it is, you'll need to move up to an E3 plan. If your models exceed 10 MB, and you want interactivity, you'll need Power BI licenses for your users.
