Actual exam question from Microsoft's MS-203

Question #: 11
Topic #: 1

You have 1,000 user accounts that are each licensed for Microsoft 365. Each user account has a Microsoft Exchange Online mailbox.
Ten of the user accounts are configured as service accounts for applications. The applications send event notifications to the mailboxes of the service accounts by using SMTP. The developers of each application have delegated access to the mailbox of their respective application.
You need to ensure that all the event notifications sent by the applications are retained in the service account mailboxes so that new developers can review older notifications. The developers must be able to view only the notifications for their respective application. The solution must minimize licensing costs.
What should you do?

A. Replace the service account mailboxes with a single user mailbox that contains journal rules.
B. Replace the service account mailboxes with a mail-enabled group.
C. Convert the service account mailboxes into shared mailboxes.
D. Convert the service account mailboxes into mail-enabled users.

Convert the "service account" mailboxes into shared mailboxes? Or maybe convert "user mailbox" into shared one? OMG

I guess the answer that makes the most sense is C. I don't think this is at all needed since delegation can be applied to a regular user mailbox, if not because of the requirement to "minimize licensing cost".

Selected Answer: C

The trick is in "You need to ensure that all the event notifications sent by the applications are retained in the service account mailboxes so that new developers can review older notifications." That the reason you need to convert the service account into a shared mailbox "...so that new developers can review older notifications"
