There are two options available to prevent the Junk E-mail from being archived depending on the type of client being used, see options below.
Option 1: Using the Enterprise Vault Outlook Full Client
This can be configured via the Outlook application on the client machine:
- Right-click on the Junk E-mail folder in Outlook
- Select Properties.
- Select the Enterprise Vault tab
- Change the settings so that this folder is not archived.
Option 2: Using the Enterprise Vault Outlook Lite client
Use Enterprise Vault Policy Manager (EVPM) to run an EVPM script to disable archiving for the junk e-mail folder .
- Create a initialization file. This should be a text file (an example of the content is included at the end of this document)
- Include the Distinguished Names of all the mailboxes which require the archiving of the "Junk E-mail" folder disabled.
- Save the text file in Unicode format with a .ini extension.
- Run EVPM on the EV server:
a. Click on Start > Run
b. Type cmd and click OK
c. Change to the Enterprise Vault installation folder. e.g. c:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault
d. Run the following command:
evpm
Example :
evpm myexchange EnterpriseVault-myexchange c:\Program Files (x86)\enterprise vault\evpm_junk.ini
Example .ini file:
[Directory]
DirectoryComputername =
SiteName =
[Mailbox]
DistinguishedName = /o=organization/ou=mailboxou/cn=Recipients/cn=
[Folder]
Name = \Junk E-Mail
Filtername = DoNotArchive
OverrideArchiveLocks = true
Note: For some special folders created by Outlook, it is not required to specify a path. Only the folder name needs to be specified without the backslash. These special folders are: Inbox, Outbox, SentItems, DeletedItems, Drafts, Calendar, Contacts, Journal, Notes, Tasks. These names work for all languages. For example, it can be specified Inbox on a Japanese system. Additionally, the [Folder] part must be added for each folder specified in the script.
