Determine if the MDM server includes a mobile email management capability. If no, this requirement is not applicable. If yes, verify the mobile email server supports the capability to limit what fields in the email client contacts list can be exported to the mobile device contacts list. This feature is usually implemented via a security policy pushed from the MDM server to the email client. Transferred email contact information should be limited to contact name and telephone numbers. Talk to the site system administrator and have them confirm this capability exists in the MDM server. Also, review the MDM server configuration. If the mobile email client does not support the capability to limit what fields in the email client contacts list can be exported to the mobile device contacts list, if email management capability is supported, this is a finding.
