Adding permissions to the journal archive

You must add permissions for those users who need to be allowed access to items that have been archived from the journal mailbox.

Users can have multiple different types of access to an archive:

Read

Users can view and retrieve items from the archive. Those who need to search items archived from the journal mailbox, such as auditors, must have at least read access to the archive.

Write

Users can archive items in the archive. The owner of the journal mailbox must have at least write access to the archive. This enables items to be archived from the journal mailbox.

Delete

Users can delete items from the archive.

Note that, even though you grant the delete permission here, a user cannot delete from the archive unless you also select "Users can delete items from their archives" on the General tab of Site Properties.
