Managing Exchange E mail  

Option 1: Managing Exchange E mail at the Exchange Client 

Pearl Echo is designed to monitor any e mail client using the POP3, SMTP or 

IMAP e mail protocol. By default, Exchange e mail clients communicate with 

the Exchange server via Exchange s native Remote Procedure Call (RPC) 

protocol. By making the following simple modification, Exchange e mail 

clients can be configuring to communicate via the IMAP protocol without 

affecting Exchange's e mail synchronization ability or any of Exchange s 

additional RPC functionality. 

On the Exchange e mail client: 

1.  Create an additional IMAP/SMTP e mail account (Options >Accounts, in 

Outlook). 

2.  Specify the required information including your Exchange server as the 

IMAP and SMTP servers. 

3.  Set your new account as the Default mail account. 

E mail will now be received and sent through the Exchange server using the 

IMAP/SMTP protocol. 

Option 2: Managing Exchange E mail at the Exchange Server 

Pearl Echo can be configured to monitor all Exchange e mail as it enters and 

leaves your Exchange Server.  This is accomplished by installing the Pearl 

Echo Workstation software as a service on  your  Exchange  Server.    In  this 

configuration all email will be monitored but User level controls will not be 

available. 

To install the Pearl Echo Workstation Service for Exchange: 

1. 

Insert the Pearl Echo CD ROM into the CD ROM drive. 

2. 

Click Workstation Setup 

3.  When prompted, enter the IP address and Port number you assigned 

when installing the Pearl Echo server software. Select the `Options' 

button and then select  This Machine  is  an  Exchange  Server .    The 

workstation will perform a test communication with the Pearl Echo 

Service and will display the results. If a link is successfully established, 

your Echo workstation installation is complete.
