Configure the UM Mailbox Policy Assigned to a UM-Enabled User
Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2
When you enable a user for Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Unified Messaging (UM), you must select the UM mailbox policy that will be associated with the user's mailbox. However, you can change the UM mailbox policy associated with the user's mailbox after the user has been enabled for Unified Messaging.
You create UM mailbox policies to apply a common set of policies or security settings to a collection of mailboxes of UM-enabled users. You can use UM mailbox policies to apply settings such as the following:
PIN policies
Dialing restrictions
Other general UM mailbox policy properties
Note
A default UM mailbox policy is created every time you create a UM dial plan. However, you can either delete the default UM mailbox policies or create additional UM mailbox policies based on the needs of your organization.
