Teams private chat archiving

Were you ever afraid that, because of malware or technical issues, you might lose your important work communication in MS Teams? Worry no more! We have implemented the ability to archive Teams chat messages as well. After an easy and quick configuration, your messages will be safe and sound, and you will be able to find and export your communication in a more advanced way.

Hit highlighting

The search experience was already good, but we added something extra to make it even better—administrators can now enable hit highlighting. When enabled, located words are highlighted so you can easily find them in longer text or metadata.

Search suggestions

Hard to remember the sender’s name or the name of a file you are looking for? Are the first searches mainly about finding the correct keywords? Ask your administrator to enable search suggestions. This feature suggests contacts and words to search for based on accessible archived items.

Mail app in shared mailboxes

With the latest version, it is now possible to manually archive and restore emails by using the Mail app also in shared mailboxes. This feature requires a specific version of Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft Outlook on the client side.

SMTP server management from Central administration

Better overview and management? The statistics of the selected SMTP server can now be viewed directly in Central administration.

Better security? Administrators can now block not only domains, but also IP addresses, ranges of IP addresses, or domains.
