Exchange Server: Specify the text to display for email clients that do not support Windows Rights Management

Applies to: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016

You can specify the text that will be sent to a user when they receive a protected voice message but their email client doesn't support Information Rights Management (IRM) or Windows Rights Management.

Protected Voice Mail can be accessed only by email clients that support Windows Rights Management or when a UM-enabled user uses Outlook Voice Access to access a protected voice message.

Protected Voice Mail is encrypted. When a voice message is protected:

  • The message is marked as Private in Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Web App.

  • The voice message can be opened only by the intended recipient of the voice message.

  • The recipient can reply to the voice message, but can't forward it to someone who wasn't included on the original voice message.

If a protected voice message is sent to someone whose email client doesn't support Windows Rights Management and isn't accessing the message using Outlook Voice Access, an email message will be sent to them that includes the text you specify. This text should include instructions about what the called party should do to be able to receive the protected voice message.

For additional management tasks related to Protected Voice Mail procedures, see Protected Voice Mail procedures.
