Use the Journaling tab to specify how to journal (automatically forward) copies of items of specified message types to another location. You can also use this tab to check journaling settings.

Content can be journaled to any location that has a Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) e-mail address, including another Exchange mailbox. You can assign a text label to messages that can be used to preserve classification information and to enable automated sorting of journaled messages by the recipient. When an item is journaled, it is attached as an unaltered copy to a new e-mail message. Some of the properties of the item being journaled are assigned as properties of the new e-mail message, which facilitates review and automated sorting.

Note:
You can also use the Exchange Management Shell to set journaling and other managed content settings. For more information, see Set-ManagedContentSettings (RTM).
