After adding the desired production source to the Production Tree, select the production source in the Production Tree and click File > Production > Filtered Mailbox Connect > Using Default Profile or Using Alternate Profile.
NOTE: If you experience problems connecting to an Production Database or Mailbox please review the Rights Required for Online Database & Mailbox Access. If you are specifically experiencing issues connecting to an Exchange 2007 server please see Unable to Connect to Production Exchange 2007 Server Mailboxes.
If you are logged in as a user that has been granted the Rights Required for Online Database & Mailbox Access then Filtered Mailbox Connect > Using Default Profile will be available. If the Filtered Mailbox Connect > Using Default Profile sub menu entry is grayed out this means that the currently logged on user has NOT been granted the Rights Required for Online Database & Mailbox Access and therefore you must create an impersonation profile by selecting Filtered Mailbox Connect > Using Alternate Profile.
NOTE: If you receive an error when connecting to a Production source, please try to connect with a different user’s profile using the Alternate Profile dialog.
Selecting Filtered Mailbox Connect > Using Alternate Profile will allow the user to create a new profile from a user that has been granted the Rights Required for Online Database & Mailbox Access.
NOTE: The currently logged on user must know the password for the selected profile in order to impersonate the user.
NOTE: These same connect options are presented in the context menus when you right-click on the database.
NOTE: You can change the mailboxes that are part of the filter by selecting Change Mailbox Set

If you wish to save a copy of your Filtered Mailbox List to import it next time you connect to a production source or if you need the list of mailboxes for some other use, you can use the Import / Export Options area to accomplish this.
Select the <- Export Complete List option from the drop-down to export the complete unfiltered left Mailbox List.
Select the <- Export Displayed List option from the drop-down to export the currently displayed mailboxes listed in the left Mailbox List.
Select the Export Selected List -> option from the drop-down to export the mailboxes that are currently listed in the right Filtered Mailbox List.
You can check the Tab Delimit Last Name option if you would like the exported list to tab delimit the first and last names. If this option isn't checked, the first and last name will be delimited by a space.
Click the Export Mailbox List button to create an exported mailbox list based on your selected options.
