In the Archive view on the Mailbox tab some items can be displayed with the following icon: (delayed shortcut) or (backup shortcut). This indicates that the email has been archived but no shortcut was created for it. That happens when the email has been archived via retention category which keeps the original email or delay shortcut creation. (See "Retention tab). It is possible to create a shortcut for such email on the Mailbox tab.
To create a shortcut for an archived item:
1.In the Archive view click on the Mailboxes tab.
2.Find the mailbox in the left pane. You may use the Look for combo box for that purpose. Double-click it to unfold its subfolders.
3.Locate the item with delayed shortcut/backup shortcut icon in the right pane. Right-click it and then, in the context menu, click Promote delayed shortcut/Promote backup shortcuts as required.
4.When the processing is over, in the Processing result window click OK.
This tab is generally used
·to restore lost items (they have no shortcut in MS Outlook, but they physically remain in the HSM store during their retention time)
·as a mailbox browser
NOTE: On the Archive tab the administrator can browse through mailboxes and their folders. For each folder there is a list of all its items displayed in the right pane of the window. Different colors of the icon represent different status of the item. You can open the legend for icons when you right-click an item in the right pane and select Show legend from the context menu or you can click the Show legend icon on the toolbar (). The Legend window with icon explanation appears. |
Some basic icons:
Blue indicates that the archived items are lost, i.e. they remain in the HSM store at least during their retention time but they have no shortcut in Outlook. User cannot reach them. Such lost items can be recovered manually only by the administrator on this tab or on the Mailboxes tab (see the section "How to restore lost items for several mailboxes).
Green indicates that the archived item has a shortcut in Outlook. It can be restored.
Yellow indicates that the shortcut in the mailbox folder belongs to a different user.
Users may have deleted the shortcut of an archived item simply by pressing the SHIFT key along with the Delete key on the keyboard or by clicking on the Delete icon on the Outlook toolbar and not by clicking on the Delete archived messages icon and selecting Delete from archive option, which is an Archive Manager Outlook AddIn feature.
In such cases those archived items are lost for the user. They cannot be reached by the user, but they still reside in the HSM store at least until their retention time expires. They can be recovered manually by the administrator only. Such lost items have a blue icon on the Archive tab.
On this tab the administrator can restore:
·one lost item
·all lost items of a folder
·all lost items of a mailbox
·(restoring of lost items for more mailboxes at once can be done on the Mailbox tab see the section "How to restore lost items for several mailboxes)
