We are using enterprise vault to archive our email messages. We have a situation that one of the managers was assigned to a different project until the spring of 2014. The manager wants to share a couple of her vaulted personal folders with the person who will be taking over. My question is this: Is it possible for the manager to share the select folders with all the emails with the person who will be taking over?
In outlook, we have tried right clicking on the folder and went to permissions and gave the user reviewer status. The new manager then went in and added the mailbox to the list. This did sort of work. The folders we wanted access for showed up, but so did all the other folders. We only want 2 folders to show up and dont want the new manager to have access to all the other folders. The new manager went to access one of the vaulted emails but when it was accessed, a message appeared the new manager didnt have access.
The only thing I could think of was to have the current manager open up every email and forward each email to the new manager. There are close to 2000 emails with policies, procedures, templates, documentation etc that need to be forwarded. If it isnt possible to forward the folders, is there a way to forward the messages without having to open up all 2000 emails and then forwarding them. When I tried forwarding a message without opening it, the new manager wasnt able to open the email becuase they didnt have permissions.
I was wondering if there was a way to do this without having to spending hours, days,weeks opening up each email and then forwarding them. When I created a pst file, the emails were vaulted and the new manager didnt have access to them.
I appreciate the help.
