Server-based archiving is rolled out to users via corresponding policies.

How to activate server-based archiving on mail-in-databases?

This is not possible using policies. You either need to open the databases and create archive setting manually for them or you write LotusScript code to create the needed profile documents automatically.

You need to create two profile documents, one for general settings called “Archive Profile” and the other one for the specific settings that has the name of the settings that you want to implement. Just create the profiles manually in one database and then use the advanced properties box to read the items and then write LotusScript-Code to create these two profiles in all mailin databases

Hi Hubertus,

Server-based archiving is controlled by Mail Settings policies and only works for mail files linked to a Person document.

Mail-in databases do not receive policies, so you cannot enable server-based archiving for them through policy.

Thanks!

Hi,

It works if the name of the mail-in document in NAB is in hierarchical format and this name is included in an explicit policy.

great finding, didn’t know that until today. Then adminp “Tell Adminp Process Mail Policy” will assign a policy to a mailin file if the name is hierarchical… good to know
