Overview

The GFI Archiver Archive Assistant is configured to automatically archive all emails found within Microsoft Outlook stores (for example IMAP / PST / Microsoft Exchange mailboxes). It is possible to exclude stores from being archived by adding exclude information in the configuration file.

Process

To exclude stores from being archived:

1. Close Microsoft Outlook.
2. From the Start menu, select Run, then type: %localappdata%
3. Then navigate into the subfolder: Microsoft_Corporation > C__Users_<USERNAME>_AppData__Path_...
4. Select and browse the directory having the highest integer number as the file name.
5. Open user.config with Notepad.
6. In the section <Configuration> <userSettings> <MArc.Outlook.Addon.Properties.Settings>, locate the following block or add it if it does not exist:

   <setting name="ArchiveAssistantStoreExclusions" serializeAs="String">
   <value>Shared Sales Mailbox;Shared Support Mailbox;company@hotmail.com<value>
   </setting>

   Note: In the value field, enter the store names delimited by a semicolon ‘;’. If there is already a store name, append to the value.
7. Save the file.
8. Start Microsoft Outlook.
