    MailStore Server vs. Office 365 Archiving The goal of this document is to detail the advantages of using MailStore Server instead of Office 365 archiving for email archiving based on provable facts as opposed to mere assumptions or hearsay. To achieve this goal, only statements about Office 365 archiving that are based on publicly available material published by Microsoft are taken into account. These statements are compared to the capabilities of MailStore Server, based on equally publicly available material published by MailStore Software GmbH. To further enhance the quality of this analysis, all statements (with the exception of those related to pricing) have been extracted from technical specifications and implementation guides to ensure that they are based on current best practice and state of affairs.

  • Contact Groups in Microsoft Outlook 2010
    Nonprofit Technology Collaboration Contact Groups in Microsoft Outlook 2010 What are Contact Groups? A contact group is a collection of contacts in your email. It provides an easy way to send e-mail messages to a group of people. For example, if you frequently send messages to the marketing team, you can create a contact group – called “Marketing Team” – that contains the e-mail addresses of everyone on that team. A message sent to this contact group goes to all recipients listed in the contact group. You can include contact groups in email messages, task requests, meeting requests, and even in other contact groups. Note: Prior to Outlook 2010, contact groups are referred to as Distribution List in 2007. Create the Contact Group 1. On the Outlook home page, click the Contacts Button, located in the left pane. Right-Click the white space and click New Contact Group. 2. In the name box enter a meaningful name for your group. Press the Enter key on your keyboard. This will cause the title at the top of your window to change to the name you have just entered. I.E. “Marketing Team”. Your contact group is now created; you can begin to add email contacts to your contact group. Last Updated: 10/26/2012 Contact Groups Page 1 of 11 Nonprofit Technology Collaboration Add Contacts to Your Contact Group Once your contact group has been saved in the contacts folder you can begin adding email contacts to your contact group.
