I went to set up access to my company's Exchange server to access my email. My S4 popped up and said the server requires Administrator permissions on my phone, and the list of permissions gives it absolute access to do everything to my phone, including deleting everything and performing a factory reset, disabling camera, security features etc.

The Motorola Droid X2 I replaced had none of this.

What is going on? I want email access, but I don't want to give admin rights to the server.

This is typical of Exchange server on a phone. Chances are that it never came up on your Droid X2 because those features weren't turned on at the time you set it up. You need to talk to your Exchange administrator about this.
 
Yep you're going to have to give it rights. You can do a hack to where they don't actually have any of the rights (that's what I do) but you're still gonna have to actually hit the accept button to set the email account up.

How can i hack? can you please elaborate, as setting exchange email does not allow me to install any unknown app, that is not good.

Help needed.:(
