Deliver spam email to an Exchange mailbox sub-folder (required when installing on Exchange 2010 or newer versions only)
Information Store Protection using EWS (not required when using VSAPI)

GFI MailEssentials can create this user and configure its permissions automatically or else create the user manually. For more information refer to http://go.gfi.com/?pageid=ME_SpamExch2010

This account's details (such as username and password) must not be changed from Microsoft^® Exchange or Active Directory, else these features will not work.
