  • 1.  Creating a new folder in Outlook.

    Posted May 28, 2012 10:56 AM

    Hello all,

     
    First: Sorry for poor English.
     
    I have a workflow that needs to get some messages from a particular folder and create subfolders with a given name (in this case the name of the subfolder is the name of the sender).
     
    The only problem I am finding is to create a new folder in the existing structure.
    To connect to the mail box I use the "Get IMAP4 Component" to move and I'm using the"Move Message IMAP4 Component," but to create a new folder does not spotted any component. And the component "IMAP4 Move ..." does not create the destination folder automatically.
     
    Anyone ever had a similar problem? I thank you for your help.

    There's a Create Public Folder component in the MicrosoftExchange library (not loaded by default)... unsure if this is what you need.

    Hi reecardo,
     
    Unfortunately it's not what I'm wanting. In this case a public folder is created and what I want is to create a folder under the specific mailbox. Example: (INBOX/SubFolder, INBOX/SubFolder/SubFolder2 ...).
     
    I'm trying to run it by telnet with "TelnetCommandsComponent" using IMAP4 command line.
    But if he had a workflow component that made this work would be much safer and reliable.

    If so, you may be able to do this via Powershell. You'll need to select a service account and enable Impersonation on Exchange Server . This will allow you to perform actions on another user's account.

    We recently used this impersonation to write in the dates of the Summer Olympics in London to every single mailbox in the company (off topic, I know, but just an illustration of the power of the impersonation option).
