MS-101 Exam - Question 178


You have a Microsoft 365 subscription.

All users have their email stored in Microsoft Exchange Online.

In the mailbox of a user named User1, you need to preserve a copy of all the email messages that contain the word ProjectX.

What should you do?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

To preserve a copy of all email messages that contain the word 'ProjectX' in the mailbox of User1, you should create a mail flow rule from the Exchange admin center. A mail flow rule, also known as a transport rule, can inspect messages in transit and take actions such as keeping a copy of the message in a specific location or forwarding it. Creating a label and a label policy would not directly preserve emails specifically containing 'ProjectX'. Message traces are typically used for tracking the status of messages rather than preserving content.

Question is older. Now one anser is A. From the Security & Compliance admin center, create an eDiscovery case. And this is correct.

Mail flow rule will not "preserve copy", you can use it for FW/CC to another mailbox etc., so I guess A is here the right answer.

Preserve could mean "archive" and a mail flow rule can do this ... I think

Seems A is the most logical answer. From Security & Compliance: Classification > Retention labels. Information governance > Retention.

I would say the hold is a domain of the eDiscovery from the Office 365 Security & Compliance. First, you create a case, then hold selecting places and keywords.

See question 28. Apparently, there is more than one way to skin this cat...

Both are right one has ediscovery and one has label as an option

You want to retain mail containing the word ProjectX, so you need to tag those mails with a label, Answer A.

It would be a if it were "Create a retention label and a retention policy." But I don't think you can do both of those in the same place.

Mail flow rules applies to messages in transit and not at rest. So i think most likely answer is A
