  2. Open the policy you want to edit and click the Backup selections tab.
  3. If you have not already added one or more clients to the policy, first add those clients.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Click Browse.
  6. Navigate to and click the Exchange object to back up and click Add.
  7. If necessary, edit the entry.
    • Append the object name to the new entry.

    • If a mailbox specification without wildcards does not end with a backslash, add it.

    • Add wildcard characters if you want to define groups of objects or use multiple data streams.

      See Performing Exchange backups with multiple data streams.
