Email Search - mailbox and In-Place Archice
Hi I just wanted to get some clarity. I have just rolled out archive mailboxes to all our O365 users. Users have asked if they search using the "SearchMail and People" box in their O365 web client d...
Hi
Thanks. We are currently using the old client because it doesn't seem to allow the user to attach tags to the email. This used to be quite straight forward by right clicking and assign policy but that option isn't available. I had assumed it was a feature that has still to be released.
I created the archives yesterday but didn't run the managed folder assistant. Should I have run this globally for everyone at the time of the change?

Yes, run the managed folder assistant after applying the retention policy. You should only have to do it once to set it off.
I would be tempted to say that if doing a search to tell users to flip to the new experience in order to do the search (since they have access to the switch) however I do realise that this may cause confusion. Interesting to know about assign policy and it being missing as I didn't notice this! The search mail and people box ought to search across the mailbox and archive mailbox: however for peace of mind I would explicitly test this by manually moving a mail with a distinctive subject line into the archive and then searching.
Best, Chris
