the Exchange Recipient Administrators role

D.

Explanation:
You will require the Exchange Recipient Administrators role. You can use the Exchange Management Console or the Exchange Management Shell to configure default storage quotas for the Windows EBS mailbox. Storage quotas allow administrators to control the size of mailboxes and manage the growth of mailbox databases. You should perform the following steps to configure storage quotas for a mailbox:
1. Start the Exchange Management Console.
2. In the console tree, expand the Recipient Configuration node, and then click Mailbox.
3. In the Result pane, select the mailbox user for whom you want to configure storage quotas.
4. In the Action pane, under the mailbox user’s name, click the Properties option.
5. In the mailbox user’s Properties dialog box, click the Mailbox Settings tab.
6. Click the Storage Quotas option, and then click Properties.
7. In Storage Quotas, clear the Use mailbox database defaults check box, and then complete the following fields:* Issue warning at (KB) – Select this check box and specify the maximum storage limit in kilobytes (KB) before a warning is issued to the mailbox user. The value range is 0 through 2,147,483,647 KB.
* Prohibit send at (KB) – Select this check box and specify a prohibit send limit in KB for the mailbox. The value range is 0 through 2,147,483,647 KB. If the mailbox size reaches or exceeds the specified limit, Exchange will prevent the mailbox user from sending new messages and will display a descriptive error message.
* Prohibit send and receive at (KB) – Select this check box and specify a prohibit send and receive limit in KB for the mailbox. The value range is 0 through 2,147,483,647 KB. If the mailbox size reaches or exceeds the specified limit, Exchange will prevent the mailbox user from sending new messages and will not deliver any new messages to the mailbox. Any messages that are sent to the mailbox will be returned to the sender with a descriptive error message.8. Click OK to return to the Mailbox Settings tab.
9. Click OK.The account you use to configure storage quotas for mailboxes must be delegated the Exchange Recipient Administrator role.
All other options are incorrect because the account you use to configure storage quotas for mailboxes must be delegated the Exchange Recipient Administrator role. The Exchange Organization Administrators role gives administrators full access to all Exchange properties and objects in the Exchange organization. The Exchange Recipient Administrators role has permissions to modify any Exchange property on an Active Directory user, contact, group, dynamic distribution list, or public folder object. The Exchange View-Only Administrators role provides its members only read-only access to the whole Exchange organization tree in the Active Directory configuration container, and read-only access to all the Windows domain containers that have Exchange recipients. The Exchange Public Folder Administrators role provides its members the required administrative permissions to manage all the public folders.
