We have an onsite hybrid Exchange 2013 server in conjunction with O365 Exchange Online. I set a journaling rule within the O365 admin to journal to our onsite journal email, which has its own journal mailbox. We have only one O365-only test account that we are using for testing. How do I verify this account's emails, both sent and received, are being journaled?? By extension, this applies to any mailboxes that will be migrated from Exchange Online to O365/Exchange Online. Thank you, Tom

    Hi @DisabledLivesMatter ,

    Yes, O365 journal rules will be applicated to O365 mailboxes.

    You could try using Get-MessageTrace to trace the messages pass through the cloud-based organization, it will also record the messages sent to journal mailbox

    I use the command like below and get the message trace result:

    Get-MessageTrace -StartDate xx/xx/xxxx -EndDate xx/xx/xxxx | Where {$_.Subject -match "subject"}
