Prevent user or users from deleting emails in Outlook or OWA?

Dear,
I have a question, I have Exchange 2013 SP1, how I can prevent user/s from deleting emails (specifically sent items) from Outlook or OWA?
Thanks
Regards

Hi,
In your case, you can enable litigation hold for these users in your Exchange 2013 server. If you want to place all mailboxes on hold, you can use the following cmdlet:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited -Filter {RecipientTypeDetails -eq "UserMailbox"} | Set-Mailbox -LitigationHoldEnabled $true -LitigationHoldDuration 2555
For your reference:

Prevent user from deleting rows from all tables in his own schema

Hi,
How can I prevent user from deleting rows in all tables in his own schema.
I want the user to not able to delete rows from any existing or new tables that might be added in the future.
The user does not have the "DELETE ANY TABLE" system privilege.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Nowadays, I'd also avoid triggers (if possible).
Sometimes, when I daydream, I'm rewriting a few applications that I've contributed to as a newbie, and I'm very ashamed of it nowadays.
From what I've experienced, in retrospective, the emphasis on teaching 'Oracle stuff' has been lying far too much on PL/SQL row-by-row oriented processing instead of letting Oracle 'crunch' sets at once.
Most of my debugging hours ended up in discovering one or more database triggers 'doing stuff automagically'.
Another nice blogpost: http://rwijk.blogspot.com/2007/09/database-triggers-are-evil.html
Regarding OP's question:
I would just rethink/reconsider this requirement completely.
Correctly implementing privileges and roles seems the best way to go, yes.
Triggers? Nah...
pre-post-edit, noticed thread got updated just before posting
Don't know what you mean with 'namedropping', but I think it's legitimate to point other readers to interesting Oracle related opinions/articles that do have a technical background and lots of interesting examples.
post dreaded OTN outage edit (from here)
Again: I would just rethink/reconsider this requirement completely.
Both trigger/vpd are being used to hide a design flaw here.

Prevent user from deleting someone else data

I have a table
create table T(
infoID number primary key,
info varchar2(4000),
user varchar2(1)
and users a,b,c with object priveleges on table T.
What is the best way to prevent user from deleting someone else data?
1. Create a view for each user to interacat with ( where user='a') and revoke privileges from table T.
2. Use procedures or trigers to catch a bad user.
3. ?

Leo is certainly correct that VPD will solve the issue you have described. however another option also exists without the need to create a separate view for each user (as you described) or the use of VPD, the option would be to do something like the following.
create user ownera identified by ownera;
create user usera identified by usera;
create user userb identified by userb;
create user userc identified by userc;
grant connect, resource to ownera;
grant create view to ownera;
grant connect to usera, userb, userc;
conn ownera/ownera
create table mytable ( id number primary key,
userid varchar2(8) not null, mod_date date not null, text varchar2 (100));
create sequence mytable_seq;
create or replace trigger biu_mytable_trg
before insert or update on mytable
for each row
begin
     select mytable_seq.nextval into :new.id from dual;
     :new.userid := user;
     :new.mod_date := sysdate;
end;
create or replace view v_mytable as
select * from mytable where userid=user;
grant select, insert, update, delete on v_mytable to usera, userb, userc;
try inserting and selecting as the various userX users.
Good luck.

Prevent users from sending emails to wrong users

Hi
I was looking for a possible way of stopping users from sending emails to the wrong person.
Wonder if this can be achived by group policy or creating rules and alert.
What im actually looking for is when the user is about to send out the email they get a pop up message saying you about to send email to such person would you like to send now?
hoping there is some sort of a solution for these problem :)
cheers

Yes, some more details please.
The closest thing I can think of is (in Exchange 2010 - no available in 2003 or 2007) is Mailtips:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd297974.aspx
But I'm not sure that's quite what you're looking for.
And how could any software know if the person is the right person?
It would have to read the person's mind and realize they are about to make a mistake by sending the message to X instead of Y.
Please mark as helpful if you find my contribution useful or as an answer if it does answer your question. That will encourage me - and others - to take time out to help you.
Hi Le Pivert,
I can understand your opinion an outlook will have to be that smart to realize that the email is about to be sent to a wrong person.
What i was look for is something like a pop up notification when click on send it has a pop up message saying you are about to send this email click yes or no to cancel.
Something like when receiving emails outlook sends the notification.
I guess the above cant be achive through the outlook may have to be a third party software it there is any.
Cheers

I would look at these offerings if you are looking at Outlook Add-ins
http://www.slipstick.com/addins/auto-process/special-function-automatic-message-processing-tools/
If you thinking about server side solutions, Exchange has mailtips, hub transport rules, moderated groups etc... And of course 3rd party stuff is out there as well.

Prevent user from deleting portlet

Hi All,
I designed my page and i want to give the ability to user to customize the portlet but not to delete any portlet ...
Is this available or not?
for a life example check www.msn.com
thnaks

ahmed,
Currently, customizing a region is not possible. You can put
all portlets that you don't want a user(s) to customize on one tab and then set access rights. Course, if you had custom portlets, then you could control whether the link was displayed or not depending on acl.

ps: Hope u recvd the code that you requested

How to prevent certain Users from deleting a resource while in the project?

We are currently using P6.2 client; We are setting up a new resource dictionary and have been searching to find a way to prevent certain users from deleting resources while in the project. Is there a way to do that? I have created Global profiles and Project profiles under the Admin security profile and have tried clicking off of rights to delete a resource but when I log into as that user I can still delete the resource. Please Help!

Are you talking about preventing users from deleting resource assignments within a project? Or preventing them from deleting resources from the global resource dictionary?
For global resource dictionary in Global Profile you would turn off:
-Delete Resources
And likely:
-Add resources
-Edit Resources
-Edit Roles
-Edit Resource Calendars
For resource assignments on activities in Project Profiles you would turn off:
-Add/Edit Project Activities Except Relationship
Note: this will disable more then just the ability to alter resource assignments.

How do I prevent users from caching their sign in credentials on OWA page

I am using Forms based authentication and want to prevent users from caching their credentials on the OWA page.
Is there an easy way?

Hi,
Forms-based authentication enables a sign-in page for Outlook Web App that uses a cookie to store a user's encrypted sign-in credentials in the Internet browser. So this authentication method will force to cache their credentials in the Internet
browser for some time. The workaround is what Willard Martin suggested.

Is it possible to prevent users from using the ''Purge'' option from the ''Recover deleted items'' in Office 365?

Hi,
After speaking with a Microsoft engineer over the phone, I've been told that there is no way to prevent users to go to their OWA and manually Purge specific items from the ''Recover deleted items''. The Microsoft tech told us to place the desired mailboxes
on a litigation-hold and that all data will be recoverable... but only from the time you place the mailbox onto Litigation-Hold and previous items, which doesn't take effect for new-coming emails.
1- From what I understand, any new items coming in the mailbox after the Litigation-Hold is put in place will still be ''purgeable'', right?
2- Is there a way (PowerShell, Security group, etc.) that can prevent a user from using the Purge option?
We are very surprised that there is absolutely no thread that talks about this issue, which in our opinion, is a major legal and security flaw from Office 365. This is a main concern for us to actually go with Office365. For instance, this means that at
any given time, if a user exchanges emails with a competitor, they can manually purge emails sent and receive as soon as it is sent/received, even after Litigation-Hold is in place.
Thank you for your reply and let us know if you have more questions.

Thank you for the reply.
Is there still a way to prevent users from using the Purge option, like with a Powershell script to disable Purge?

How to prevent users from saving and emailing intranet documents externally

Someone in our company needs to upload a pdf to our sharepoint intranet site for internal-only use. How can I prevent users from downloading it and emailing it externally?
I mean, a user could screenshot it I guess, but I need to give management a due diligence answer.

You would need to look into a reverse proxy/firewall that had the ability to block access based on content. This isn't something you can accomplish out of the box with SharePoint (even with AD RMS).

How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory?

Hello guys
I'd like to know How to prevent users from creating new folders in share folder directory but still keep their power of creating new folders in their personal 'my folder'?
I tried changing the 'manage privilage ---- create folder' to deny certain user accounts, but by doing so, it also stops the user from creating new folders in their 'my folder', which is not good..
I also tried going into these share folders and tried different access types such as 'change/delete', 'read', 'traverse folder' etc, but none of it work ideally. The 'change/delete' access still allows them to create new folders, 'read' access prevents creating new folders but also take away their power of saving reports..
Any thoughts on how to take away their ability to ONLY create new folders in share folder areas without affecting their other privileges?
Please advise
Thank you

Easy, on the shared folders root folder only give them 'read' or 'traverse folder' but on the the folder inside the shared folders root folder give them 'change/delete'. That means they can change anything inside those folders but not create any folders at the shared folders root level.

Is it possible to prevent users from viewing a page in Edit Mode?

Hello everyone,
I would like to know if it is possible to prevent users from accessing a portal page in Edit Mode. Currently, the users do not have access to any links that take them to edit mode, but if they add &_mode=16 to the end, they view the page in edit mode. Granted, they don't have permissions to add or edit content, but I would like to keep them from seeing this.
I am using 9.0.4.1
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Jim

hi jim,
you cannot really configure this in portal. if somebody manually appends &_mode=16 we display the default edit mode, but fully enforce security. this means that the user cannot see anything he is not allowed to see: like pending items, hidden, expired or deleted items. as you said he also cannot add, edit or delete any items.

christian

Prevent user from changing calendar permission

Hi team,
How to prevent users from changing calendar permission in outlook. When user open calendar option in Outlook he should either he should able to view the calendar sharing tab or he should not able to make modification in calendar permission by assigning permission
to others.

Hi,
Agree with Andy. Exchange has no built-in feature to prevent mailbox owner to modify their calendar permissions. Since they are owners, they can set their calendar permissions.
Thanks for your understanding.

How to prevent users from running PRC: Transaction Import from WebADI form?

Hi,
We are 12.1.3 and trying to create a workflow to approve Project transactions coming through web ADI before they become effective. To this end, we want to prevent users from running the PRC: Transaction Import from the Web ADI.
I know that if the checkbox Automatically run transaction import is not checked, the program does not run. But we want to hide this checkbox and not allow the possibility that the program could get triggered.
To this end, we updated the BNE_INTEGRATORS_B with source='C'. This allows you to edit the integrator from Desktop Integration Manager.
UPDATE BNE_INTEGRATORS_B SET SOURCE ='C' WHERE INTEGRATOR_CODE ='PAXTTRXB'
In the 4th step, where the value for Uploader Parameters is set, we have set boolean value to No. These are the fields on the page:
Parameter Name: bne:import
Display Name: Start Transaction Upload
Data Type: Boolean
Category: Field
Default Value: Boolean Flag: No
Description: start Transaction Import Concurrent Request
Display Options: Displayed: Unchecked
Display Options: Enabled: Checked
Display Options: Required: Checked
Prompt Left: Automatically submit Transaction import
Display Type: Check Box
Maximun Size: 100
Display Size:100
Now the checkbox is not appearing for the user to check it, But the program is automatically running when you hit Upload in the WebADI.

Hi ,
Try removing the PRC: Transaction Import Program from the request group for the responsibility used by customers to submit the WebADI and then check if the program launches.

Raghavan

Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in oracle and yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

Hi All, We are in to Release 11.5.10.2.There is a specific requirement to Prevent users from creating Manual Sales Orders in Oracle and yet users should be able to book the Sales Orders Imported from CRM system into Orcale.Please advise.

Thanks for your advise.
However, I missed to mention that we have two set of users One is for Finished Goods and another for Spares.
Only Spares users need to be prevented from creating Direct/Manual Sales Orders in Oracle.
As you suggested, if this will be done at Form level, that may Disallow FG users also to create Manula Sales Orders which should not be the case.
Further, I tried to test one scenario through Processing Constraints but it did not work.
