Email Integration with Microsoft Outlook
You can index and send emails from Microsoft Outlook to Vista.
You can either attach emails via drag-and-drop attachment functionality, or you can use the Outlook Add-in. Once emails are added to the system, you can search the text they contain using the DM Attachment Index Search form.
Note: The Microsoft Outlook integration is available with either 64-bit or 32-bit versions of Microsoft Outlook, depending on which Vista client you have installed:
- The 64-bit Vista client is compliant with 64-bit versions of Microsoft Outlook.
- The 32-bit Vista client is compliant with 32-bit versions of Microsoft Outlook.
When you have installed the Outlook Viewpoint add-in, you can:
- Assign indexes to email documents in Outlook and send them directly to Vista™. This does not require the Vista application to be open.
- Use the email integration feature in these modules:
About Vista-Outlook integration emails and attachments:
- Emails get stored as .msg files.
- Attachments get stored with the same indexing as the email.
- If you are storing attachments in a database, and you have enabled full text searching, you can search on all text contained in the email (.msg) and any of its attachments (PDF, JPG, and so on).Note: Any emails or attachments which are not indexed are not searchable. To make them so, use the DM Email Attachment Update form.
