Install Custom Forms for Storage Management

You must publish custom forms to the Organizational Forms Library on the Exchange Server for the storage management feature of the Outlook® Extension to work as described. The custom form files are included in the Outlook Extension installation package.

The Outlook® Extension custom forms are:

  • Archived.oft — Message class is IPM.Note.MessageOneStubbed
  • Locked.oft — Message class is IPM.Note.MessageOneLocked

If one has not yet been created, use Exchange System Manager to add a new folder to the Exchange Organizational Forms Library.
