EVPM on public folders

Hi, I know I can suppress archiving via the Full Outlook Add-In. But I want to stop archiving from the beginning, so I started to use EVPM DoNotArchive Rule. Unfortunately, it won't work, do you ha...

    now it seems to work:

    you don't need the folder tag:

    [Directory]
    DirectoryComputerName=mycomputername
    Sitename = evsite myorg

    [PUBLICFOLDER]
    Name=\my-little-pf\pf 1\subpf 2\bk-test\
    Filtername=DoNotArchiveRetentionCategory=My Retention
    APPLYTOSUBFOLDERS=TRUE
    OverrideArchiveLocks=True

    Thanks!

Hello FLX,

Not sure about this one, but maybe try :

Name="\my-little-pf\pf 1\subpf 2\bk-test\"

Hi Gertjan,

if I try with " or ' , EVPM can not parse the ini File.

Also retentioncategory is set, I receive this error:

Value in error:     \my-little-pf\pf 1\subpf 2\bk-test\
Reason:     You must supply a value for either the retentioncategory or exchange
permissions attributes
Error parsing the config (.ini) file

With retention category:

[Directory]
DirectoryComputerName=mycomputername
Sitename = evsite myorg

[PUBLICFOLDER]
Name=\my-little-pf\pf 1\subpf 2\bk-test\

[Folder]
Filtername=DoNotArchive

RetentionCategory=My Retention
APPLYTOSUBFOLDERS=TRUE
OverrideArchiveLocks=True

      Excellent! Can you mark your answer as solution? Others might be helped with this.

      Yes, the [PublicFolder] and [Folder] section tags are parallels that contain mostly the same options. You use the former for Public Folders and the latter for folders in a normal Exchange mailbox.
