Exchange has its own admin center in exchange is the key term that you need to know for email.
That's all it means is your email admin center.
The reason it's called an exchange admin center is behind the scenes, its exchange server that's driving
it.
And before we had Office 365, we had something called B POS, which, by the way, was the first version
of officers.
Sixty five.
Before that, we all just had exchange servers on site.
So an onsite exchange server could be in this big beefy server or group, a server for a large company.
Sometimes people ran small business server that had exchange on it, but it just meant that that's where
your email was being served.
So now that it is cloud based, we think of it as Microsoft 365 or Office 365.
But the engine behind the e-mail component itself is called exchange.
So just a little bit of meaning behind that term.
The admin center allows you to manage your recipient's known as your e-mail boxes or your mailboxes.
You've got permissions.
Who has permission to do what?
To see what.
We have compliance.
Do you have a retention policy that you have to follow?
Because maybe your municipality and you have to hold on to records for a certain period of time, organization
wide domain wide protection.
That's going to be really handling viruses and spam mail flow.
We can create rules about incoming and outgoing mail on the simplest form.
Outgoing mail might have a disclaimer that says this e-mails for an intended recipient.
And if that's not you, please discard it.
So we could do a lot with all mail leaving the company or the domain and all mail coming in.
We can manage our mobile clients.
Public folders is still around, but it is an old technology.
It has been way bypassed by SharePoint, which is how most people do it now.
But there are still some things that rely on a public folder structure, unified messaging.
You know, that's when you bring the whole thing together.
We have texts to phone call, to chat, to email, all that's handled and of course, hybrid environments,
which means you might have an exchange server on site, plus an Office 365 server and you're going with
a hybrid mode in order to satisfy all your company requirements.
