Environment

• GFI Archiver
• Microsoft Exchange 2007 SP1 or newer or Microsoft Office 365
• Trying to set up the Mailbox Folder Structure Retrieval feature using the EWS protocol

Root Cause

1. Users have not been created in GFI Directory.
2. The user's email address in the directory service (Active Directory or GFI Directory) does not map correctly to the user object in the email environment. For example:
   1. GFI Archiver is installed into a Microsoft Office 365 mail environment
   2. A user has been created in Active Directory or GFI Directory: John Smith with the email address js@domain.com
   3. But the corresponding user object in Microsoft Office 365 has a different email address configured: johnsmith@domain.com

Resolution

Ensure that:

1. User objects have been set up and do exist in the directory service, which is used (Active Directory or GFI Directory).
2. The user objects in the directory service have the email address set to the very same address as the corresponding user in the mail environment.
