1. Recipients   This is where you’ll view internal users and external contacts.

2. Permissions   This where you’ll manage administrator roles.

3. Compliance Management   This is where you’ll find audit logs and reports, such as the administrator role group report.

4. Protection   This is where you’ll manage anti-malware and anti-spam protection for your organization, as well as manage messages in quarantine.

5. Mail Flow   This is where you’ll manage rules, accepted domains, and inbound and outbound connectors, as well as where you’ll go to perform message trace.

The tabs are your second level of navigation. Each of the feature areas contains various tabs, each representing a feature.

When you click most tabs, you’ll see a toolbar. The toolbar has icons that perform a specific action. The following table describes the icons and their actions.

When you select a tab, in most cases you’ll see a list view. The viewable limit with the EAC list view is approximately 10,000 objects. In addition, paging is included so that you can page to results.

When you select an object from the list view, information about that object is displayed in the details pane. In some cases the details pane includes management tasks.
