Hi,

It is not possible for encrypting the mails in Exchange 2010. The access control will restrict the encryption route.

It will decrypt the mail before going to another user. The admin also unable to do this as the decryption is necessary for exchanging mails.  You should try other programs for this purpose.

Thanks.
