What's New

Filing Assistant

 

What is the best suggestion threshold?

  • The best suggestion threshold is used to adjust what gets filed.

    • A high setting requires a greater degree of certainty to file emails so some may not be filed.

    • We suggest starting by using the 'High' setting and reduce in steps.

  • Messages that do not reach the threshold will not be filed.

To know where messages have been filed, right-click on a filed message and select "Filed Location" or open the Dashboard from the Mail Manager ribbon and go to Filing Activity section.

Filing Assistant Dashboard

  • This Dashboard view allows the user to view the messages and locations that the filing assistant would have selected for filing.

  • When the filing assistant is enabled, this dashboard view lists items that did not meet the best suggestion threshold.

  • When the filing assistant is not enabled, this dashboard view shows how well the filing assistant is choosing the filing locations to provide users with confidence to enable it.

  • "No suggestion found" means that the message did not meet the threshold to suggest a filing location.

 

New Search Window Preview

You will notice the ability to "preview the new search window" by selecting the Search button from the Mail Manger ribbon in Outlook.

 

Selecting the "Preview new search window" opens up our new search window.

This is a Preview of the new search user interface. Not all elements of the current search have been applied to the new search screen (for example, the Social Map).

If you have any feedback on the Preview Search UI, please navigate to the Mail Manager Feedback Form on the website and submit your comments.

 

Right-Click to see the Filed Location

A convenient way to see where messages have been filed.

 

When will you see the Filed Location?

  1. When you have filed the message, or

  2. When the sender of a received message has filed the message to a location that you have access to upon sending.

 

When will you see the Filed Location > Move To Option?

  1. This feature will only appear on messages that you have filed.

 

Watch the video below to see how this feature works.

 

File by Conversation

If you have View by Conversation enabled in your Outlook ‘View’ settings, you can select the conversation header of an email and file the entire conversation to your chosen location.

 

Watch the video below to see how to enable View by Conversation in Outlook and filing a conversation.

 

 

Move Filed Messages older than XX days to Deleted Items Folder

Enabled via the User Preferences, this feature will allow you to move filed emails to the Deleted Items folder. The solution can be applied to your Outlook Folders i.e. Inbox, Sent Items, Filed Items, and Filed Folders.

 

 

Automatic Updates

Updates will occur without requiring user action until the installation is complete and then they will be prompted to restart Outlook to continue using Mail Manager. The next time Mail Manager releases an update, you will not receive a prompt to update.

 

When the process starts, you will see a window showing you that Mail Manager is downloading an update:

 

You will notice a Windows installer preparing the install, and a Mail Manager version specific installer. When the installation completes, you will see a window displaying the new version with the ability to navigate to the User Manual to see What's New.
