Enabling Mail Add-ins On Send Functionality

By default, the Mail Add-ins On Send functionality is disabled for all users.The Mail Add-ins On Send functionality must be enabled for all Classifier Mail Add-in users for the Classifier Mail Add-in to operate correctly.

The Mail Add-ins On Send functionality is enabled by applying an OWA Mailbox Policy which has the On Send functionality enabled to all Classifier Mail Add-in users. OWA Mailbox Policies are configured using Exchange or Exchange Online PowerShell cmdlets.

Use the Set-OWAMailboxPolicy powershell cmdlet to set the OnSendAddinsEnabled property to $true on all OWA Mailbox Policies which are or will be applied to Classifier Mail Add-in users.

All Classifier Mail Add-in users must have an OWA Mailbox Policy assigned to them which has the OnSendAddinsEnabled property set to $true. The Set-CASMailbox powershell cmdlet can be used to apply a OWA Mailbox Policy to users using the OwaMailboxPolicy property.

Please note that it can take several hours or days for changes to OWA Mailbox Polices to be applied to users.

Pre-requisites and Recommendations

The supplied Classifier Mail Add-in Manifest file "ClassifierMail.xml" must be edited to include the name of the website hosting the Classifier Mail and Office Add-in Website.

Replace all "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SERVERNAME" references with the host, and optionally the port number, from the authority part of the URL for your Classifier Mail and Office Add-in Website.

E.g. if your Classifier Mail and Office Add-in Website has the URL "https://myserver.mydomain.com/" then the replacement value for "REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_SERVERNAME" would be "myserver.mydomain.com".

A requirement for a Mail Add-in is that the website it references must use a SSL secured https connection. To support this:
