If you have a large number of mailboxes in your environment, the backup scope can become extensive. To manage this scenario, configure the capture scope using the option. You can map a range of mailboxes to be included in the backup. It helps minimize the load on any one connector. To cover all the mailboxes in your environment, you can configure multiple connectors.
- Click All users.
- Click the Alphabetical user scope option and do the following:
Enter the range of email addresses that you want to back up using this connector.
For example, if you specify the start letter as 'A' and the end letter as 'F', all email addresses within the range of 'A' to 'F' are included in the backup scope.
The mailboxes are processed based on the first letter of the email address.
If you are using the Alphabetic user scope, you may need to enable theInclude users whose email addresses starts with non-alphabetical character option for one of the connectors. It backs up the mailboxes of the users whose email addresses do not begin with an alphabet.
