Technical details
All messages entering your storage device are processed by the COM+ application "MAPILab Rules for Exchange". All the processing stages are shown in the following picture.
The COM+ application "MAPILab Rules for Exchange" contains a single component that is a synchronous Exchange store event sink. This event sink applies rules to incoming messages before they are placed into storage. Thus, server and client Outlook rules are applied after MAPILab Rules for Exchange. The order of processing relative to other possible event sinks is configured through the setting of priority values in the administrative console.
By default, the event sink is registered on all found local
storages. Later on, you can manage the registration settings using the
administrative console on the corresponding properties tab.
Installation
The installation of MAPILab Rules for Exchange is fully
automatic and does not require any particular manual operations by the
system administrator. However, it should be mentioned that the following
actions take place during the installation:
- The Active Directory schema is modified (attributes and classes that will store the MRE configuration are added).
- A special account is created, its credentials will be used to run the COM+ application.
- The COM+ applications itself is created and configured.
- A container for storing the program settings is created in the Active Directory.
