Statement of Direction

Symantec announced support for Microsoft Outlook 2010 OR (Original Release) with the Enterprise Vault 9.0.1 release in 2010. This release made a fully functional Enterprise Vault HTTP-only client available to all Enterprise Vault customers. The HTTP-only client provides the following functionality:

• Full Enterprise Vault shortcut functionality
• Full Enterprise Vault  toolbar functionality including access to EV Search and Archive Explorer
• Full Vault Cache / Virtual Vault
• Full PST migration capability
• Windows Desktop Search integration (with the exception of Windows 64-bit / Outlook 32-bit combinations)

Building on this initial client release for Outlook 2010, Symantec is looking to ship an updated version of the client which includes enhanced client capabilities. These capabilities will be closely aligned to the Enterprise Vault full client available for previous Outlook versions. This functionality includes:

• Enterprise Vault property page for mailbox root

- Capability for end user to modify the associated retention category (if permitted by policy)

- Capability for end user to enable/disable archiving for the mailbox (if permitted by policy)

• Enterprise Vault property page for mailbox folder

- Capability for end user to modify the associated retention category

• Enterprise Vault dialog page for  “Restore from Vault” action

- Capability for end user to modify the restore location

- Capability for end user to choose to delete the shortcut on restore

• Archive entire folder functionality

Symantec expects to be able to deliver this functionality in Q1 2012.
