I have an immediate need to create a Outlook mailbox folder using the same folder that was/is used by our PST migrations.

What is the best way to allow users to drag and drop, move, or use rules to automatically vault items that are moved to the same folder our PST migrations use?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Jason

EVPM would be your

EVPM would be your friend.

Create a folder called whatever you imported your psts to and set a 0 day archiving policy against it.

Something like this:

[Directory]
DirectoryComputerName = EVServer
SiteName = EVSite

[Filter]
Name = 0days
CreateShortcut = True
DeleteOriginal = True
UnreadMail = True
UseInactivityPeriod = True
InactivityUnits = Days
InactivityPeriod = 0

[Mailbox]
DistinguishedName = ALL

[Folder]
Name = \Archives
FilterName = 0days
NonDeletable = True
RetentionCategory = Archives
OverrideArchiveLocks = True

I just ran EVPM from cmd,

I just ran EVPM from cmd, typed in the server, service account mailbox, and tried to exit.

The cmd said, "creating privledged MAPI session"  and stated some other quick things and closed.

What happened?

Best bet...

Is to run it again from a command prompt. And have lots of command prompt history enabled so you can scroll up (don't just double click evpm from windows explorer) 

Creating the privledged MAPI session is just how EVPM logs in to the Exchange server so it can process the targets of your request.

Thanks for the response. 

Thanks for the response.  I'll probably try to open a ticket to get some additional support for this issue as this is a high priority need.
