Granting the Vault Service account Send As permission

If you set an SMTP endpoint's SMTP server credentials option to Use the network credentials the client access provisioning task is running under, you must grant the Vault Service account Send As permission on the mailbox that is associated with the SMTP address you specified in the Sender email address for notifications option.

For example, if you set the notification sender address to IMAP-notifications@example.com, you must grant the Vault Service account Send As permission on the mailbox whose SMTP address is IMAP-notifications@example.com.

You can set this permission manually in Exchange or use the following procedure.

To grant the Vault Service account Send As permission

  1. Log in to the Exchange Server using an account that is assigned the following management role:

    • Active Directory Permissions

    By default, members of the "Organization Management" role group are assigned this role.
  2. Open the Exchange Management Shell.
  3. Run the following command:

    Add-ADPermission -Identity mailbox_name -User domain\user_name -AccessRights ExtendedRight -ExtendedRights "send as"

    Where:

    mailbox_name is the mailbox whose SMTP address you specified in the SMTP endpoint's Sender email address for notifications option. If mailbox_name contains spaces, enclose it in quotation marks.

    domain is the Active Directory domain that the Vault Service account belongs to.

    user_name is the Vault Service account. If user_name contains spaces, enclose it in quotation marks.
